He is doing a little better

I talked with my Dad today on the phone. They had him out of bed sitting in a chair. He was clearer then yesterday, but sounded very weak and tired. He was looking forward to the big game. Go Seattle! He may even get to eat some GF Pizza. But he needs allot of rest and time. I thank you for your thoughts and prayer. I hope he will return to his old self. It will take some time. I guess as long as I know he is out of danger and will regain his speech and ability to think I'm at peace. It all goes in stages...first saving his life...then helping him regain his speech...now regaining his reason. And I guess it is happening very fast. But I wait all day long to hear of any change. I am so anxious to know he will be OK. And even though He was so weak, I see amazing progress. So I really think He will recover. And for this I am so glad! I'll go to bed and look forward to an email from my Mom when I wake up.

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
