The Fire Conference

Nicole and I were late getting to the conference last night. The traffic was so heavy and there was allot of road construction. We had a really great time in the car together. Nicole is getting very funny. She kept me laughing with her observations from high school. Nicole is basically a nerd. No make up, and not a fashion queen. She has a heart of gold and cares about what really matters. Lucky for her she was born beautiful. She doesn't really need any makeup(in my opinion). I have no objection to make up. Some girls at this age cake it on. You can easily see they don't like them selves. They try to hide behind a mask. Nicole also had some funny stuff to say about the latest fashion trends. The girls are wearing cloths that look two sizes too small. They are also into short skirts, and bright colors. Nicole said the small girls look like Santa's elves, and the bigger girls look like they have forgotten their own size (meaning the cloths make them look fat).
It was really wonderful to hear Bonnke preach last night. There were maybe 3000 people there. Many of the people around us were from Africa. Nicole fell in love with a cute 10 month old African boy sitting in front of us. He wanted Nicole to hold him. He liked her long hair! The message was about the God who seeks for us. In every other religion, man seeks God. In Christianity it was God who came to seek and save the lost. It was an awesome sermon. More then 100, maybe even 200 people came forward to accept Christ as their Savior. Then He called people who were sick to come forward for prayer. Nicole and I came forward to pray for Jessica and Juergens mom. I think 500 people must have come forward. I prayed for Waltrud, and Nicole prayed for Jessica. It was a blessed time of prayer. I would love to report to you they are both healed. I hope some day I can do that! I can tell you it feels good to bring our needs to God and just trust him with the out come. I do trust him. I also believe He heals, so I will keep asking. We go again this afternoon. We are missing the morning service because Juergen needs to get some things done. That's OK because I don't think I have the energy to stay from early morning to midnight. I'm just so blessed to go at all. It really is good! It makes me want to go to Africa! Maybe someday I will!

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.

Taking at look at Hotels select

I have the chance to review Hotels select.   https://www.hotelsetc.com/ This is a really interesting travel club.   You pay a fee of about 200 dollars a year to use their very extensive site.   I got this membership free.   It has many deals of mostly hotels, but also rental cars, flights, restaurants and events around the world.   I have been spending days looking at what they offer.   So far what I’ve found is amazing deals on the places many people go.   For example, hotels in Orlando are 50% less than deals you find at booking.com.   Rental cars are often 25% cheaper than Rental cars.com.   And they have a search where you can book a condo for as little as 250 dollars a week just 1 mile from Disney world.   That is 7 nights for 250 dollars for up to 4 people.   The exact location on Airbnb cost 650 dollars a week. If you travel to places like San Diego, New York City and Las Vegas this site will save you a great deal of money.   If you rent cars you will also find it wo

Reading Kingdom

I am very happy to review the Reading Kingdom.   This is an online program that uses a variety of methods to teach reading.   I decided to share this product with my adopted granddaughter Ruth.   Reading kingdom uses a six skills integrative method Ruth only just began to use the program. She is only 3 years old and cannot use the program without help.   But her mom says that she can already recognize words like girl and kids when they are shown on the screen.   Sylvia wrote that she loves the repetition of the words in the program .   That Ruth is memorizing the words she sees.     She will be able to use it for an entire year.   But I expect her to become a very good reader.   And what a great gift to give to any child!   She will have a lifetime love for books.     Sylvia also works with teenage mothers in Uganda.   And many of these women have never attended school.   So she plans to use these ideas to help these young women learn to read. http://www.ReadingKingdom.com what
