be still my heart



There is an art nouveau mansion, less then 1/2 mile from my house for sale. It was built in 1908 and has been used as a parsonage for the last 100 years. It is now being sold by the Evangelical church. The price isn't so bad. The location is pretty good too. It is a 5 minute walk to the train station. Thomas could be at school in 10 minutes, Nicole 20 mins, and Philip could walk to school in 10 minutes. It has a beautiful big yard. Oh, if only we could!!!! I'm going to try to see it on Saturday morning. We still need to paint our house, and redo the bathroom in order to sale it. This is a very nice house, but I don't know if we can afford it. You can not imagine what a nice house it is! What a very nice location. They say it was renovated in 1995 and in very fine condition. Sarah and I drove by it today. It has new insulated windows. It looks tip top!

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
