Day 23


Philip had an MRI today. I thank God he doesn't have a brain tumor. I'm so tired. I didn't sleep last night. I should not allow fear to rob me of my peace. I day dream of going to Thailand. It is so cold and dark here. I know 3 months of sunshine and sea air would be so good for Jessica and me. I wish I could just go away. I even looked at Chinese medical clinics that do Acupuncture Therapy. I could not take the kids out of school. They do tongue acupuncture in Thailand. I know that sounds just awful, but it has good effect on autistic people. Jessica had normal acupuncture for awhile but it's very expensive here in Germany. Also, Germany does not have the good sunshine that seems to do a world of good for Jessica. I would love to take Philip and Jessica to Thailand for some treatment. There is no way this is happening...but it's what I'm dreaming of. I feel like it would really help them both to take long walks on the beach, play hours in the water, soak up the sunshine, and get daily acupuncture. I wonder if I would be allowed to move there as an American for say 9 months and just home schools the kids. Dream, dream...
Anyway, thank God Philip does not have a brain tumor.

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
