I like to read CNN and I was just reading a piece about Lindsay Lohan. I don't know if you know her, but she is an actress, and a big influence on young girls everywhere. She and her pals Paris Hilton, and Britney Spears all seemed to emulate all that was wild and beautiful. Each one of them rich, famous, and very beautiful. Each one of them hit the wall this past year! Lindsay Lohan is now in drug rehab. Anyway, the news article mentioned Lohan’s father. He was released from prison 2 years ago on charges of driving while intoxicated. He is now training to be a drug counselor for Teen Challenge. Teen Challenge is a ministry of the Assemblies of God church. It is very effective at helping people turn their lives around after addiction. I thought it was cool he has gone through Teen Challenge, and will work with them. I'm sorry for Lindsay, Paris, and Britney. I'm sure they experience a great deal of emptiness and pain. But on the other hand, I hope young girls realize what a burn out life style these girls were living, and where it lead them. These are not good role models for my daughters!

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.
