The Ugly truth

The truth is I hate alarm clocks. I would use stronger words but I don’t talk like that. I have a very bloody history with alarm clocks. I kill them! Really…I do. I smash them, crash them, and through them out windows. They are rude! They disturb my sleep. I choose to avoid alarm clocks. Juergen wakes me up in the morning. He is not rude, he is thoughtful. This morning Juergen’s alarm clock went off at 7:30 am. I do know how to turn it off. What I don’t know how to do is set it. I need to wake the kids up tomorrow at 6:30am. I can not see the small controls on the clock with out my glasses. I’ll need to figure this out before tomorrow. Did I ever tell you Juergen gave me an alarm clock as a gift for our 20th wedding Anniversary? He was in the hospital with Sarah. He was stressed. I figure he just wasn’t thinking straight. I didn’t try to read more into it then that! He has tried to give me watches too. That’s a whole other story. I love that Juergen wakes me up each morning. It’s one of the many things I love about him! There is no way I want some rude little clock doing the job! I wonder if Nicole knows how to set the alarm clock?

Putting a high value on sleep and not wanting it interrupted is not exactly new for you. Yes, I'm pretty sure that either Nicole or even Thomas could help you reset your alarm clock. I love you, Mom

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
