So tired

Have you ever been so tired you almost fall asleep when you sit down. My week has been so full I am really very tired. I won't bother you with the details. I worked hard, and plan to work hard this weekend and all week really.
The workers are still not done with the bathroom. They put the floor down tomorrow. I guess they grout the floor Monday. So maybe it will be finished on Tuesday or Wednesday? It really was a big job, and they put in many hours. It looks great. I will take pictures when it's finished!
Jessica got home today. She looked great! Her teacher said she was wonderful on the trip. She seemed very happy and proud. I guess I'll see photos next week. But I'm very happy to have her home.
Juergen has gone to his dads for the weekend. Richard just had surgery. He looks good Juergen said. I'm relieved to hear it. I'm definitely going to miss Juergen this weekend, but I'm glad he can be with his dad!
I wish I had something more interesting to report. Right now it’s really just work…followed by more work. If the weather is good the kids and I will clean up the garden. I don't think my kids will spoil me for mothers day, so I guess I will have to spoil them. I'm very glad to have them in my life. I'm wise enough to realize it isn't the flowers and gifts that count. I will have all 5 kids with me on Sunday. And in years to come I will wish with all my heart to simply have them all home at once. I'll miss Juergen on Sunday. I'll also miss my Mom. But I'll have my kids. And I'm a pretty blessed person!

I will miss you too, honey. Dad and I will be alone tomarrow. All of you kids have plans and that is just the way it is. But I do have memories of other Mother's Days. I especially remember the one just after my oown mom left us. All of you came home and surprised me. What a special gift that was. I love you, enjoy all five of your blessings tomarrow. Mom

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.
