Tomato seeds, Berlin and my farm house

I won the bid on 16 different varieties of heirloom tomatoes on eBay. I’m already thinking about starting my plants in another 6 weeks. I guess all I can do is plan to be where I am right now. I’d love a big garden, but I’m thinking that will not happen for me this growing season. Even if we do manage to buy the farm house in Bad Schönborn, I’ll need to concentrate on renovating the house. The garden will have to wait. So I’ll start my tomato seeds at the beginning of March. I’m looking around for other seeds to invest in. This year I think I’ll try a variety of peppers. I use them allot in cooking. You should grow plants you enjoy eating.
Jessica’s class is planning a trip to Berlin in May. I’ve never been to Berlin. It should be fun for her. We found out that she can not go to the autism house in Sandhausen if we move to Bad Schönborn. That’s not good. But we also found out she does not have the funding to go there yet, and they are having trouble securing that funding. We also found out the director of the house quit, and they don’t even have a director now. So I’m not really sure what to do or think. The autism house may not really be an open door for Jessica and maybe something good is available for her in the other school district. I guess we just need to look. I know God has a plan that is perfect. I’m going to just wait until it is clear what’s really right.

Here is my garden last July

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.
