emotional week

It's been an emotional week. My beautiful and 100% lovely niece Lisa and her husband Nate lost their first child. His name was Isaac and he was still born. I'm very sorry for their loss, the loss of my dear sisters first grand child. I'm sorry for the whole family.
My brother is also facing a very hard time in his family. I will not communicate the details, but I'm very sorry for his pain.
On the good side, Philip celebrated his 9Th birthday. He wanted to go shopping at toys are us. I gave him some money, and he ended up only spending a small amount on himself. He gave some of the money to Thomas and some to Sarah. He drives me crazy often, but he often makes me very proud. There is a noble character under all that "boy"!
Juergen and I went out to breakfast this morning. We were celebrating our 17Th wedding anniversary (just 2 weeks late). I would make you sick if I began to write about how much I love this man of mine! I could not thank God enough for him...I know I am blessed!

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
