Oh well

The heater stopped working. Our big house is very cold. We just found out that our oil tank needs to be filled. It would not bother us much if we expected it. But the past owner said the tank was full. I guess they either lied or had the oil pumped out. It was their oil. We never got a written statement that the oil went with the house. We just didn't expect this. But we are able to get oil today. The price is even pretty good. So God willing the house will be warm for the party. And as for the past owners? God bless them. I'm sorry they lost their beautiful house. I'm sad for them. They should not have said that the tank was full. I really would have bought the house with or with out the oil. It's going to hurt our budget, but we will be OK. I'm just glad we are able to get oil at such a good price ...and right away.

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.
