Like sound through water


Juergen's flight was delayed a few hours. This made his day very long. He got to the hotel at 2am. He isn't staying at the nice hotel once booked. They had a reservation problem, so now they are at some not so interesting place (sad). I am pretty sure Juergen will not post photos for a day or two. He has some interesting observations on India, but I'll leave that to him to write.
I managed to get the kids to bed early last night. They all slept well. I made them a good, hot breakfast. They even had an extra 20 minutes to play before school. I hope the rest of the day (week) goes as well! I should be cleaning my house today; instead I'm reading a book about Auditory processing Disorder (APD) called "Like sound through water". I'm convinced Jessica, Thomas, and Philip all have a degree of APD. Karen Foli's story is so much like my own story. I can not help but notice how much people love their children, and feel so helpless when something is wrong (for what ever reason). It does not mater if your child has a physical, emotional, social or developmental problem. If they hurt, you hurt! We all want our children to be safe, healthy, and happy. I pray God gives me wisdom to help all my kids do well.

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
