forcing bulbs


We live very close to Holland. I've just stated to see forced bulbs in the stores. You can force your own spring flower bulbs. It's a great way to get some early spring time into your cold dark winter. I love spring bulbs. HERE is a good site to tell you how to force bulbs. I have been thinking about my own spiritual life. It feels like winter, and I want to force it to be spring. In the case of my spiritual life, I feel God telling me not to force things. I need to wait the season out...just wait on God. Spring will come, and with it a new energy and creativity and life. Some things just should not be forced!

In reading Leviticus yesterday you don't want to force anything. Things need time to heal to grow etc... When you force things they don't become strong. That is why rest is so important. You want to be a mighty oak not a weeping willow.
It's funny when I was younger I was impatient when it came to the garden. Now I enjoy each season in it's time. There is so much to do why jump ahead. This is a good time to look at garden catalogs and dream and plan.

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
