Plan B?

Should we consider a plan B? Is that a lack of faith or just using wisdom? If we can sell our house right now , we would consider this plan A. But we could push the move date to say December. This would give us more time to sell. The people we are buying from don't have a place to move to yet. Perhaps it's best to push the dates back 3 or 4 months? And if we can not sell, should we pay a mortgage on 2 houses, or rent our house out? How long should we wait to decide this? I'm trying to be logical, and not emotional about this. We are talking about loads of money. Our best plan is to sell now. But our plans may not be God's plans. I have to believe there would be a reason (a higher purpose) if the whole thing is postponed by a few months. If we had a few more months we could see if selling our house is realistic. I don't want to lower the price too much. Moving later would have an effect on the kids schools. We need wisdom. It’s a big responsibility to own 2 houses. Not really what I wanted.

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
