Pre-op part one




I took Jessica for her pre operation check up this morning. It went pretty badly. I had to pick Philip up at noon from school. We didn't get everything done. In fact, in 4 hours we only managed to speak with the Anesthesiologist. I could scream because the whole system is so poorly organized!!! They changed everything. You use to go to one location and have the whole screening done there. Now you have to go to 4 different locations. You stand inline and wait for a very unfriendly receptionist to take your papers. You wait in a waiting room for almost 2 hours before being seen. Then you move to the next receptionist, and the next 2 hour wait! Anyway, I have to waste tomorrow morning trying to finish the process. Jessica has ear surgery on Thursday morning. In the photos you can see a very board Jessica who refused to sit on the chairs. She insisted on sitting on the floor. I personally have a headache all over my body! I canceled all my other appointments for the day (one was actually kind of important). I'm not such a happy camper, but I'll get over it. I hate to miss my morning appointment (I have weight watchers on Wednesday). Jessica will miss the rest of this week at school, and maybe part of next week. I hate these stupid tumors that keep growing in her ears. This will be the 5Th or 6Th operation to remove the tumors that keep coming back! Juergen's mom had 4 surgeries to remove brain tumors that also just kept on coming back. If you believe in curses, you could wonder about this pattern in our family. It simply makes me angry! I guess the worst part is just how much pain and fear it causes Jessica. Man I hate this whole thing!!! I will get through this; I just want to scream a little!!!

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
