A cold day



The weather has turned very cold. It's even snowing today. The heat went out at Philips school and I had to pick him up early. I also pick Jessica up from school on Mondays. Today Jessica's teacher, Frau Grimm was almost in tears. It seems the school wants to give Jessica another teacher next year. Frau Grimm has been Jessica's personal teacher for 10 years. She is a second mother to Jessica. I'm going to try to keep a cool head about this and pray. Jessica only has two more years of school. I want her to finish her school time with Frau Grimm. Please pray with me.
Juergen went to India this morning. I'm sure we will be OK, but I miss him. TD Jakes preached once about 80% and 20%. All of us have 80% of our lives working well, and maybe 20% that does not work so well. We can lose sight of the 80%, and fix our eyes on that 20%. Some people will even leave the 80% looking for that part they feel is missing. Juergen is my 80% (plus some). When I look at him, I know I am blessed. Hopefully he will blog a little from India!

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.
