It came!!!!

I waited all morning but the washing machine finally came. It's giant. The delivery men got it down the stairs, but couldn't get it into it's space. I had to move a shelve (and all the stuff on the shelve). Then Philip and I pushed the machine into it's spot. Juergen will hook it up tonight. My house really stinks like wet dirty laundry. I can not wait to clean up this mess! We have been without a washer for over a week. Juergen did a few loads at a friends house, but I have about 10 loads waiting. I posted the slide show of our house in Bad Schönborn, and the pictures I took of the house in 2007. Juergen asked for this. I get so fixed on selling the house we have, and I forget why we are doing this! Really, it’s so much trouble! I am not even half way through the race and I feel like giving up. I’m tired! I need to see what I’m running toward.

Nothing like a washing machine that works. I use ours almost everyday.

I have a cross stitch over our dryer that says"Thank God for my dryer".
Another must have item if you live in rainy Oregon

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
