Dad is home!

I got a call from my Dad. He just got out of the hospital. He is doing pretty good. Mom is also doing well. She is finally allowed to put some weight on her broken leg. It's been a very long summer for them. My brother in law Paul is also recovering from surgery. He sounds good. He has a very high deductible on he's health insurance and also lost allot of income from this whole illness. It's a really tough financial hit for them. I'm sure that has to be hard, they were trying so hard to get debt free. I'm sure they feel like so many hard working folks in America (and all over the world). I'm just glad he will be ok health wise. I pray God helps them recover all that was lost.

I'm getting nervous about Thailand. I always feel a little crazy before a big trip. Did I pack everything? Is everything taken care of? And how will Jessica be on the flight? I worry too much. We go in 4 days (God willing). I just need to relax and breath!

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.
