Dreaming



I woke up this morning and I could hear the boys talking with Juergen at the breakfast table. They were talking about our upcoming vacation in Holland. Juergen was telling them about all the cool stuff we get to do, swimming, bowling, go carts, billiards, and mini golf. They were getting really excited. Then they started to recall vacations we have taken in the past. They talked about our vacation in Israel two years ago. I was surprised how much they remembered. It was sweet to lay in bed and over hear their conversation. It's nice to know they have good memories of our days together...and that they have joy about what is just over the horizon.

I bet I could even plant the outside of it with mud and grass for extra insulation and good looks.

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
