Nicole and Thomas went back to school today.Juergen tried to get Thomas a place in the International school, but no chance! He is back in his old class. He has a real problem with German comprehension. He can read and write German, but doesn't understand what he reads. I'm not really sure what we can do to help him improve. I think he will need extra help. I guess we will have to seek that help out ourselves. Philip will not begin school until later in the week. Juergen talked with the school director, and will bring Philip to his new school Wednesday, or Thursday. Jessica begins school on Thursday. Sarah says she also wants to go to school. We will look for a kindergarten place , but I don't think she can go until January. She has been really moody today. The transition is pretty hard on her. It's hard on me too. Normal seems a long way away. We will get there! At this point I wouldn't mind sending Sarah to kindergarten. I would love to have my mornings back. I never seem to have the time to catch up on anything. I am lost somewhere in the mess, and maybe if Sarah goes to kindergarten I'll have the time to find myself again!

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.
