Surpise




In March, Nicole and I started to plan Juergen’s surprise 55th birthday party.  After months of planning and stretching the truth we managed to successfully surprise Juergen with an awesome party.  One thing that failed was the video recording the great surprise.  I had 3 of his oldest and dearest friends arrive early to surprise him. For months he believed we were planning a MOPS (mothers of preschoolers) party.  We had him carry tables and buy drinks, and many other tasks for the MOPS party.  But in the end he discovered it was all a cover for his party.  And we are so grateful for all the amazing people who came to make it a great evening.  We had a nice barbeque.  I fixed shih kebab for the first time.  And the guests brought salads and desserts.  The weather turned out to be beautiful.  Many of our friends brought their kids.  That made it nice for our kids.  The entire family had a good time with music and soccer, eating and talking.  I’m so grateful it worked out well, and that Juergen got a small glimpse at how really loved he is.   


The sound is not so good but here is the cup song.

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
