New everything...and just before Christmas

I'm sort of use to Juergen going out and buying everything he wants about 2 weeks before Christmas. This year his shopping habit have taken a different direction. Our dishwasher, cloths dryer, and stove all broke (no kidding). He would make the trip to the appliance store for a new dishwasher, then two days later the cloths dryer broke. We had wet cloths hanging everywhere. It was a disaster! So Juergen went to get a new cloths dryer. Then the very next day it was the stove. So we have a limited budget for Christmas. Everyone will get a gift, but not the whole toy store! They only need one gift because they all have so much anyway! I shopped today for the top idem on their lists. I also had to buy Nicole new cloths. I bought her new shoes and jeans 2 months ago. Her shoes are already too small, and the jeans are 2 inches too short. She now wears a size 43 shoe (I think that is a US size 10). She is almost 5 feet 10 inches tall. She needs to stop growing because it's getting impossible to find her cloths.

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.

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

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
