stay-cation 3





One of the things we always do on vacation is eat out. Today we took a short trip to Thailand (one of my very favorite vacation spots). We ate Thai food for lunch. We went to the restaurant and ordered the food to go. Then we went to the garden/ pet center to buy fish food and some end of the season plants. I got a beautiful low growing yellow and orange striped rose for 60% off the normal price. I also bought some new plants for my Fall/Winter window boxes. By the time we were done shopping our food was ready to pick up. The kids had wonton soup, and chicken sticks with peanut sauce. I had a really good duck curry. Oh I wish I was in Thailand! Still, my stomach is really happy. So are the kids! I'm taking a nap while the kids watch Mr. Bean takes a Holiday!

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.

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
