Just some thoughts

It's just after 10am. I just tucked Jessica back into bed. She decided to take a morning nap. I turned the CD player on. It is playing a Andrea Bocelli CD, her favorite. It's cool in the room and dark because the curtains are shut. I must say Jessica knows how to rest!
I rubbed fresh Aloe Vera in Philip this morning. He is covered from head to toe with bug bites. He dragged his blankets into the garden yesterday. Then dragged the same bedding back into the house last night...with the bugs. Now I need to wash the blankets, and put borax power all over his room to kill what I think are flees. I also have to buy Aloe Vera spray (100%) to spray on his skin. My poor Aloe Vera plant just isn't big enough to cover all these bites!
Philip is getting excited about going to the USA. He told Juergen last night, “What gift do you want me to bring you"? He plans on bring gifts for the whole family! I guess we will be shopping in America!

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
