it's a night

I finally got Jessica down for the night. I think it's about midnight. I think Juergen arrives in Canada very soon. He will still need to get his bag and find the hotel. It has been a long trip for him.

Oh, just as I was writing this Juergen called me. He just got there. He had a good flight. He watched 3 movies. That helped him pass the time. The suitcase was just a few ounces under weight. So thank God he didn't have to pay extra for it! And he says the airport is very nice!

Anyway, we did fine today. Nicole and Sarah went to a Christmas play at our church. They pulled kids from the audience to play parts. Sarah was Mary. I drove the boys and Jessica around for a few hours. We looked at the outside of 2 houses that are for sale. I didn't like them, so they can be marked off my list. I also showed Thomas the outside of the Christian school. We timed the distance from the school to our house. It took 20 Min's and 5 seconds. Not bad! I watched the movie step up 3 with the kids. We love it! I made cookies with Sarah. I did laundry, dishes etc... and I missed Juergen. So now we are about 24 hours closer to his return home. I'm grateful he arrived safely! The house is quite, and I will say goodnight!

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.

Taking at look at Hotels select

I have the chance to review Hotels select.   https://www.hotelsetc.com/ This is a really interesting travel club.   You pay a fee of about 200 dollars a year to use their very extensive site.   I got this membership free.   It has many deals of mostly hotels, but also rental cars, flights, restaurants and events around the world.   I have been spending days looking at what they offer.   So far what I’ve found is amazing deals on the places many people go.   For example, hotels in Orlando are 50% less than deals you find at booking.com.   Rental cars are often 25% cheaper than Rental cars.com.   And they have a search where you can book a condo for as little as 250 dollars a week just 1 mile from Disney world.   That is 7 nights for 250 dollars for up to 4 people.   The exact location on Airbnb cost 650 dollars a week. If you travel to places like San Diego, New York City and Las Vegas this site will save you a great deal of money.   If you rent cars you will also find it wo

Reading Kingdom

I am very happy to review the Reading Kingdom.   This is an online program that uses a variety of methods to teach reading.   I decided to share this product with my adopted granddaughter Ruth.   Reading kingdom uses a six skills integrative method Ruth only just began to use the program. She is only 3 years old and cannot use the program without help.   But her mom says that she can already recognize words like girl and kids when they are shown on the screen.   Sylvia wrote that she loves the repetition of the words in the program .   That Ruth is memorizing the words she sees.     She will be able to use it for an entire year.   But I expect her to become a very good reader.   And what a great gift to give to any child!   She will have a lifetime love for books.     Sylvia also works with teenage mothers in Uganda.   And many of these women have never attended school.   So she plans to use these ideas to help these young women learn to read. http://www.ReadingKingdom.com what
