Day 14


Today I want to thank God for my good friend Inkeri. She stopped by this morning to bring me a gift (tee and chocolate). I will eat the chocolate today because I begin my 40 day fast tomorrow. I told her how sad I was about Juergens mom. We remembered a good friend of ours who died far to early (she was only 39 years old I think). Inkeri felt like she should go see this friend but she really did not want to. It was so hard. After cleaning her whole house and anything else she could think of she went to see our friend. She said that it was in a way good. When a person is dying heaven is very near. You can feel it. It is very good not to always be thinking of this world, but to also have a mind towards heaven. After the visit, she felt a strange peace. I will be going to see Juergen's mom this weekend (God willing). I do not look forward to saying good bye. What Inkeri had to say helps me. The chocolate also helps! Thank God for good friends!

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.
