Jessica will go to Berlin

Jess has had a very good vacation. She has been happy and relaxed. When we ask her about Berlin she says yeah!!! So I nervously packed up her stuff. I hope I got it all. She had a bath (a bucket bath because our bathroom is being renovated). She is in bed. Tomorrow, God willing Jess will take a train to Berlin. I'm pretty sure she will be fine. Her private teacher is wonderful. She will take good care of her. And I will be excited to see the pictures and get a report. I hope she loves it. I hope she will be fine! I will miss her! The kids all go back to school tomorrow. The bathroom will get tiled (God willing) this week. I can not wait to see it finished! Maybe Jess can take a real bath when she gets home.

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.

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
