God gave me flowers

I wanted tomatoes this year, so I had 100 plants. The weather was not very good and I just didn't get much fruit. But I got flowers. Lots and lots of flowers. Every week I've picked fresh flowers for my living room and dinning room and hall. And the colors changed from week to week. So you could say it has not been at all what I wanted but it's been beautiful. And it is so much like my life. Not what I had planned, but very beautiful. Juergen shows the house in Leimen tonight. I hope it sells but I’m just grateful he is showing it. Another family wants to see it after the renter moves out. They say they are very interested but want to see it empty. I get the feeling they cannot afford it and are hoping we will drop the price in some dramatic way. That will not happen. But we do have a gardener scheduled to redo the back garden. And I guess it will get sold or rented in time. Perhaps even tonight?

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.
