I've done my job


I just returned from the store. Generally this is nothing to write home about. I've been sick for weeks. My poor car has been sitting under a pile of snow and ice for weeks. The snow finally melted and I could actually open the car door. The battery is of course dead. I ended up walking the 6 blocks to the store. This would generally be no big deal, but I have been really sick. I was coughing and coughing all the way there. My nose was also running. It was not a pretty thing! Pitiful, just pitiful!!! But we needed food. Children need to eat. I've done my job, now I can crawl back into my bed with a good conscience. It's supose to snow again tomorrow. Oh goodie!!!

Oh Amy, I hope you feel better soon. We are in the midst of a serious cold snap right now. Temps are below zero with -35 windchills! Grant asked me today if we could move to Arizona. Doesn't sound too bad to me right now. Hugs!!

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
