Yesterday Juergen and I met with the counselor of Thomas. He started to see a Christian family counselor last spring to help him deal with anger. Anyway, I'm writing about this for two reasons. First I want to encourage people to seek wise council when they need it. It is not unspiritual to get a better perspective when you need it! We found our counselor by asking our pastor for a recommendation. The second reason I write this is to tell you that she said Thomas does not need counseling anymore. He is better! We were very worried about him last spring. We don't worry anymore! He is SO MUCH BETTER!!! I want to thank God for giving Thomas peace. He was always a great kid, but now many people start to notice! Thomas was at a little hole in the wall restaurant Juergen takes the kids to buy Turkish Food. Even the owner of this place said to Juergen, "Thomas has changed. He is such a good boy now". I want to encourage people to get help if you need it, and also tell you that progress can be made in a very short time!

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
