The Gala kitchen



The kids and I went to look at kitchens at "Segmüller" a very large kitchen store. They had some awesome kitchens. Most of them cost too much for us. But this one very modern kitchen was just under 4000 Euro (was 9000 Euro). It is called the Gala. I think it's by Schüller , a German company. It includes all the appliances. A dishwasher, built in refrigerator and freezer. It has a cool counter/bar top. Sarah likes that! The storage is very cool. It is a high gloss kitchen, but it does come in white, light brown, and off white. So maybe if I got it in off white with a brown counter top? I love the way it's laid out. It's much more "modern" then I thought I would want. But I really like the use of space. We will see. Segmüller will deliver and install the kitchen (no extra work for us). It takes about 6-8 weeks to deliver a kitchen. No need to fill our garage with a kitchen . The down side to buying a used kitchen is renting the truck to pick it up, and finding a place to store it until we move.

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.

Reading Kingdom

I am very happy to review the Reading Kingdom.   This is an online program that uses a variety of methods to teach reading.   I decided to share this product with my adopted granddaughter Ruth.   Reading kingdom uses a six skills integrative method Ruth only just began to use the program. She is only 3 years old and cannot use the program without help.   But her mom says that she can already recognize words like girl and kids when they are shown on the screen.   Sylvia wrote that she loves the repetition of the words in the program .   That Ruth is memorizing the words she sees.     She will be able to use it for an entire year.   But I expect her to become a very good reader.   And what a great gift to give to any child!   She will have a lifetime love for books.     Sylvia also works with teenage mothers in Uganda.   And many of these women have never attended school.   So she plans to use these ideas to h...

Happy Birthday to Jessica

Today Nicole and I took Jessica shopping. She turns 22 years old tomorrow. She has grown over the past year. She now likes her disabled workshop. And she has begun to learn to write again on the computer. It is a slow process, but maybe she can write independently in the next 5 years. Her teacher is wonderful. We are very blessed to have her help! If I stopped and thought about what Jessica might be doing if she was healthy, it could break my heart. Birthdays should be happy, but when your child is disabled it's always bitter sweet. Bitter because of the milestones that were never met, and sweet because of the person that is still very valuable and wonderful. But I'm sure everyone feels bitter sweet about something in your life. Life is never only sweet. For me it is much better to fix my eyes on what is there and let go of what I hoped for...what every parent hopes for. Jess bought a new book, 3 DVD's and a Fanta. I also took her to McDonalds because that is ...
