No renter and no buyer yet!

I had my small group Bible study last night. I thought it went very well. The kids were there because of the vacation. That made things a little loud. But mostly they were good! Thomas and Nicole lead worship. They did a wonderful job. I do have talented kids! One of our group members brought her granddaughter. The 2 of them spent the night. Sarah had someone to play with. They stayed up very late playing. And our breakfast was very nice. Juergen is visiting his dad. His brother had his 50th birthday party this weekend. Juergen has to drive home in the morning because Sarah has her birthday party tomorrow. And today I showed the house to a family with 5 kids. I think they were very interested in buying the house. I would be surprised if they can afford it. But we will see. 4 other families were scheduled to look at the house for rent. None of these showed up. 3 real-estate agents also came. So I'm glad Juergen didn't skip his trip to his brothers to show the house. It has not rented yet, and has not sold. But I'm really OK with this! I have peace the right family will show up soon. I'm going to buy a kitchen on eBay next week (God willing). We will also go ahead and have the stair well painted. It will be ready for someone to move into March 1st. And when someone wants it...it will be ready. That's all I can do. Maybe one of the real-estate agents will find a buyer next week. The remax person said she has 2 families looking in Leimen. Maybe one of them? And the seminary students are trying to figure out if they can afford the house. Something will break soon! Eventually this situation will change. I’ll wait to see the salvation of God. I'm so tired. Time for some coffee!

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...
