12 Real-estate agents and a crazy family

We placed an ad in a very popular Internet site. So far we have gotten replies from mostly real-estate agents. The neighbor across the street said his brother was “very interested” in buying the house. And when Juergen told him it was not ready to show, they said it did not matter. So yesterday we killed ourselves trying to clean up. And they rudely came ½ hour early. Jessica was asleep. I was trying to clean her room. He told them to come back at the time we gave them. Then they walked in our house, declared it a mess and tried to talk us down 50,000Euros. I was so upset it took me an hour to calm down. And after thinking about it, I feel like I have to learn to say no! No, you can not even look at my house if you are a real-estate agent! No, don’t even waste my time or yours if you want to drop the price some outrageous amount of money! If you don’t like the style, then look at something you do like…I’ve got a full life, and I’m not cleaning all day for my own entertainment! We will not show our house again until May 14th. Our bathroom will be finished by then (God willing). And We do not need to stress ourselves or kids out on a daily basis for these crazy people! I am trusting God…I am not giving the control of my house to 12 real-estate agents and crazy families that want to buy your house for nothing!!! There were 2 or 3 other private families that have showed interest. Juergen will call them and try to see if they are "serious customers".

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.

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

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
