Please pray

Juergen took the day off to work on our house. I listed our house for sale on a new site. We have gotten a dozen replies already. One of the people that replied is the brother of one of our neighbors (from across the street). We wanted to wait and do one open house on May 14Th. They said they really want to see our house now. They would love to live near each other. And the daughter of our next door neighbor is also interested in seeing the house (as a rental). It's encouraging! We will show the house to the brother of the neighbor across the street tomorrow afternoon. I prayed (even a month ago) that this neighbor would have a friend buy our house. They have younger kids. Cousins living close to each other...what a gift that would be! I would be so blessed if they would buy our house! I would also be blessed to have it sold, and not to have any worry about it! That would be such grace! Please pray the brothers family loves our house, and buys it right away! The bathroom is not finished. The garden is not very clean. We are still working on things. We planed to show it May 14th. But they said this does not matter. They really love the location! They have been looking in our area. It could be a very good thing for them and for us. I want the family that gets our house to be very happy here!

Juergen is painting today. He is not happy with his messy spray gun! It is not very neat...

Juergen is also at our new house with the architect. Hopefully everything is in good order. The bank said we were getting a very good deal! And we want some idea of the cost of renovation. We should get some answers today.

I saw the wedding today. It was on at noon our time. I went to a birthday party first. then came home early for the wedding. Sarah loved watching a princess get married! It was beautiful! I think it is good to see a future king and a royal wedding. We are the bride of Christ (the Church is). We will be part of a royal wedding too.

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...
