Today


I some how managed today even better then yesterday. The kids have been super good. Maybe it's the extra sleep? Maybe it's the change in diet (no chocolate, rice milk instead of cows milk, and fish oil)? Any way, the kids have been wonderful! Today was Sarah's gotcha day. 365 days ago we met our little girl in Nanjing, China. What an amazingly hard year it has been. But she is doing great!
I finished the book, "Like Sound through water". I also talked to a person who can set the boys up in a program called "Fast forward". this is a speech language training computer based therapy. It cost allot of money, but it was the main thing that helped Karen Foli's son Ben process language (the boy from the book). I'll be talking to Juergen when he returns home. If you have used Fast Forward, or know someone who has, please let me know. I am hoping Juergen will post some photos from India. He told me the Internet connection cost 12 €. that's outrageous! Anyway, he was going to borrow someones connection and save the money. He has not taken many photos. He is there to work. We will see if we actually get anything.

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
