My friends daughter will be going to Kenya to work with kids. She is going with Campus Crusade for Christ. She goes for a year. What “got me” in this video are the children that are taken in by the other families. They have lost their parents. People who have nothing...adopting kids who have nothing. Why is it so easy for them to say yes, and so hard for us to say yes? We think our lives are stressful, and they walk for a month to find a safe place to live…just for food and clean water. We have more then enough. Juergen took Sarah to her new school today. She met her new teacher. It’s a 5 star school! All new everything. A great music program. They even have a dance teacher. I get overly stressed by cleaning my whole house. We show it 2 times tomorrow. Please pray we can sell it. I just am so tired from this weekly process! But I’m so humbled by this video. How could I survive what they survive? And yet they are generous enough to adopt.

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
