Back to where we once belonged?

Jessica visited the workshop in Wiesloch today. They work in the mornings and hang out and do fun stuff in the afternoons. If we send her there we can not live in Bad Schönborn. She probably can not have a place for one year because they are building. In the mean time, she could continue to go to her school (well, most likely). We can not send her to Wiesloch if we live in Bad Schönborn but we could live in St Leon Rot. We lived in Rot when we first moved to Germany. There is a very nice house there that was used as a driving school. I use to be a driving teacher (no kidding)! I think we will ask to look at this house. It's very big, and has a very nice garden. It is a close bus ride to the s-bahn (fast train)station. It would only take 38 mins for Thomas to get to school. I'm not sure if Philip could go to the good school in Bad Schönborn? Bad Schönborn is very close to Rot. And Sarah could continue to go to her school, but it's a long bus ride! Maybe the driving school is the right place for us? The house is very close to a golf course. I had a dream (years ago) that Thomas learned to play golf. Wouldn’t it be funny if he did?

Here is the house in Rot.

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.

The Opel Agilia

I think I don't want to spend the money for the VW New Beetle. It's a very cute and safe car, but cost about 17,000Euros new. I can find it for 13,000Euros (this is the most basic model) but that's more then I would want to spend. I don't really drive that much. I'm pretty cheep at heart. I need real value for my money. I keep thinking we really should take advantage of the money Germany is offering to trade old cars in for 2500Euros towards a new car. If I buy a car that's around 10,000 Euros, then the Government is actually going to pay 25% of the cost of that car. That's really a very good deal. Since I know I will need a new car in the near future, I feel I should get a new 10,000 Euro car. The Opel Agilia is around 9,900 Euros. It's got 5 doors, and room for 5. It is pretty safe, and comes with a 6 year warranty. I would not call it my dream car, but I could easily afford it. I'm trying to be wise here. There are other cars in thi...

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 h...
