The new washer



So a family of 7 can not live long with out a washer. We looked online and found this super sized machine (11 kg) on sale on Amazon. We got an extra 5 year warrantee. It will hopefully come by Wed. I talked Juergen into the bigger machine. We have an 8 kg machine now. But I use the washer 2- 3 times per day (some times even more). I maybe able to cut the use in half, or at least by one third. Less use will mean less wear and tear on the machine. Also less work for me. And we should be able to hang the cloths up on clothlines in the basement furnace room. This way we will save money and energy by not using a cloths dryer. So even if the unexpected cost hurts, I think we made a wise investment. Hope you had a nice Easter. All our days are very full but also pretty good. I feel glad!

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
