The plan gets bigger

Yesterday Juergen was saying we should pay less. Today he says we should pay even more to get more. We will be in Cyprus for Juergens 50Th birthday. He now wants a view of the sea. I got a good offer on the cute stone house in the mountains, but it doesn't have a view. A view is important to Juergen. He loves to look out on a wide landscape. I guess it's the feeling of freedom...total freedom. My brother Rick is an artist, and so is Nicole. I would love a view that they could paint. In fact the thought of my brother painting with my daughter is really awesome to me! She could learn so much from her talented Uncle! So I am probably going to turn down the village stone house (sad). I am back on line searching for a view (with 4 bedrooms and a pool) that we can afford! The good news is I have the airline tickets. I have 4 months to find the perfect vacation house!

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
