We worked hard and now I need to trust God

We really worked hard this week cleaning the house, and the garden. Our house has never looked better. 3 different families were to come look at our house. I hoped for more, but 3 families made appointments. And zero showed up. One family at least contacted us and said they had to go out of town. The others didn't even call. I guess I could get discouraged...but I'm really OK. We worked hard, and the house and garden look great! It's God's business to sell his house, or not. I'm just the house keeper...and I'm not going to try to control things. It's out of my control! And today that feels just fine! I need some sleep! I'm cooking Mexican food for my family tomorrow. I'm taking a real day of rest! I have peace that it's going to work out.

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
