Envy

Envy is the pain or frustration caused by another person having something that one does not have. I envy my sister Shelley for her big house and big garden. I'm generally satisfied with what I have. In reality I have trouble keeping up with what I have. I just need more space for Juergens 50th birthday party. He wants to invite between 50 to 70 people. I have no space for so many people. I know we will figure something out. I really don't envy Shelley. I'm honestly happy for her, I'm just anxious to find what will meet our need.

I hope you find what you need too.
I love what I have too, it took several years to find. But I have to say it's so much to take care of "it's a full time job", sometimes I envy my daughter Lissa and her small place. It's less work, and perfect for her.
Lissa was telling me she has 30 tomatoes on her plants already. Wow!
My tomatoes are just flowering.
I'm excited that she's excited about canning.
70 people I don't think I've had that many over at one time. Dianna's wedding would be the most we had over.
Jergen could have his party here.
But it probably would be cheaper to rent a villa.

Olivia is born

My niece had a beautiful baby girl named Olivia Rose (Beautiful name). Everyone is very excited and thank God healthy! Congratulations to the whole family! Hugs to my sister Shelley who is now a proud grandma for the 2nd time. My sister Dianna has 6 grand kids (I think). My brother and I are too young for such an blessing. At least our kids are too young. I'm going to have to wait to be called grandma. Here is a cool picture I took off Shelley's blog. It shows Eric (the tired but proud grandpa) Lissa with her first daughter Charlotte, and then a sleeping Olivia Rose. 3 generations in one shot. How fast life goes by! How beautiful life can be!

painting the garage

Rick goes home in the morning. I'm sure he will be happy to see his kids again. 3 weeks is along time to be away. The time has passed so fast. It's been really wonderful! So wonderful!!! We may stay up all night, that way he can sleep well on the flight. Hopefully his jet lag will be less this way! Anyway, here is his painting. It turned out more then good! I really love it...just like I love my brother! We will have to do this again soon!

chicken coop idea

Why not start with an IBC and cut a hole for the door? You could build closed laying boxes into it, and something for the chickens to roost on. Put some straw or saw dust on the floor. You could add vents to the side for air. If it sat inside a chicken run that you can walk into, the chickens could be safe, dry and happy. I have an extra IBC. Maybe this could be my chicken house? I bet I could even plant the outside of it with mud and grass for extra insulation and good looks.
