tired

Juergen took the kids to San Gimignano today to try the worlds best chocolate ice cream. Jessica didn't want to go anywhere. I'm ok with that. I have not slept well. The beds in this fine villa are really pretty bad. We even put the mattresses on the floor to get a firmer mattress. I'm tired of traveling. I really wouldn't mind just going home. But I'm trying to keep a good attitude. It's cold, and we expect more rain. I am just going to keep looking for good stuff to do (even if I don't feel like it really). I read Figline Valdarno has an antique market on Tuesdays. So maybe that's something for tomorrow. Italy is wonderful. It's just me, I'm tired of being away from home. The winter was so long and cold. This spring has been too busy for me. I hope to have a lazy summer. The Fall already looks too busy. I’ll be traveling, and Juergen will too. It’s nice to have the family away. I think I’ll take a nap. Jessica is being sweet. She is happy to be alone with me.

Olivia is born

My niece had a beautiful baby girl named Olivia Rose (Beautiful name). Everyone is very excited and thank God healthy! Congratulations to the whole family! Hugs to my sister Shelley who is now a proud grandma for the 2nd time. My sister Dianna has 6 grand kids (I think). My brother and I are too young for such an blessing. At least our kids are too young. I'm going to have to wait to be called grandma. Here is a cool picture I took off Shelley's blog. It shows Eric (the tired but proud grandpa) Lissa with her first daughter Charlotte, and then a sleeping Olivia Rose. 3 generations in one shot. How fast life goes by! How beautiful life can be!

painting the garage

Rick goes home in the morning. I'm sure he will be happy to see his kids again. 3 weeks is along time to be away. The time has passed so fast. It's been really wonderful! So wonderful!!! We may stay up all night, that way he can sleep well on the flight. Hopefully his jet lag will be less this way! Anyway, here is his painting. It turned out more then good! I really love it...just like I love my brother! We will have to do this again soon!

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.
