Some good listening to get you into the season



I just bought a collection of classic Christmas stories on MP3. You can buy it on Audible.com

It is over 5hours of great listening. Now I'm going to grab a cup of tea and turn on my new electric fireplace and listen to a Christmas Carol! Juergen put up the lights. The gifts are all wrapped. I'm getting ready to enjoy the season!!! No stress!

  • "A Christmas Carol" by Charles Dickens, Read by Tom Casaletto
  • "The Gift of the Magic" by O. Henry, Read by Dick Hill
  • "Is There a Santa Claus? (Yes, Virginia...)" by Frank P. Church, Read by J. Charles
  • "A Visit from Saint Nicholas ('Twas the Night Before Christmas)" by Clement C. Moore, Read by Bill Weideman
  • "A Winter Walk" by Henry David Thoreau, Read by Jean Reed-Bahle
  • "The Seven Poor Travelers" by Charles Dickens, Read by Michael Page
  • "The Fir Tree" by Hans Christian Andersen, Read by Sandra Burr
  • "Santa Claus at Simpson's Bar" by Bret Harte, Read by Robert Lawrence
  • "What Christmas Is As We Grow Older" by Charles Dickens, Read by Buck Schirner


  • PS. This would be great if you have to be in the car allot, or plan on taking a long drive. Also, you are legally able to burn 8 copies of the books you buy on audible.com. If you are short on cash, you can buy one good book and make copies to give to friends.

    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.
