Jessica at the workshop



You can tell I'm very tired. I spelled workshop with out the k. Jessica's wonderful teacher took these pictures today. Jess is doing wonderfully at the workshop. She even saw 2 new born sheep today. They were born very late in the season & must be kept inside all winter. Jess also eat lunch with the others today. This was a first. She gets stressed out in crowds, and doesn't like being in groups. But today she eat with the group. Little by little she is happy there. Her new teacher is wonderful with her. Sadly for Jessica, there is a very long Christmas break. So I am guessing there will be some ground to recover in January. But her teacher is talking about working with the I Pad. That could be exciting as Jessica learns how to communicate. I'm excited because Juergen is on his way home. God willing we will see him first thing in the morning. It will be such a relief to have him home. I have not slept well at all.

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
