Today

Juergen eat breakfast with me outside under our pergola this morning. It was beautiful. It's very hot, so I watered the garden again. Juergen even watered the grape himself. He doesn't often care for plants. It's cute when he does! I also watched videos on you tube about tomato disease. I already have some "end rot" on one of my tomatoes. The tomatoes are growing, but the end of the tomato is brown and rotten. I learned you need to add calcium to the soil. I added some Tomato fertilizer. I may also go get calcium to add. Apart from that, the plants look good. I am taking a few of Philip's friends to the pre teen group at church today. I am also dreaming of a vacation in Thailand. I would almost say forget the new bathroom...lets go to Thailand! I don't know what it is about that place, but I always want to be there! I guess it's the one place we have found everyone in our family loves. And when you have a family of 7 with so many special needs, that's allot! Italy was nice, Cyprus was nice but Thailand...always Thailand!

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
