How does your garden grow?

I just love plants. I got this from my dad. He is a great gardener. What I don't have is space or good soil. I really want vegetables in my small garden. I would love to have raised beds built, but that takes some thought and money and time. We are a little short on all the above! I found a wooden sand box on e-bay that sold for 23€ (delivered). It is not as high as I wanted and will not last forever. What it will give me is a place to put very good dirt. It is small enough I will not need to walk on the soil. It should help keep out the snails. I have already got the plants (tomato's, squash, peppers, and lettuce) to fill one sand box up. God willing it will be delivered by next week. I can not wait! I bid on a second wooden sand box. If I win that bid I will have the space for some very nice vegetables!

As far as my health is concerned, I feel very energetic today. I have more energy then I have had in a month. I can really tell people are praying for me. I hope that this growth in nothing important. I am asking for grace. God is a very good God. I am not afraid.

I do container gardening for just a couple of tomato & bean plants. I don't have the time or energy for a big garden. I just use large pots & mut them on the patio. We have 3 tomato plants & 3 bean plants & a little pot w/garlic chives.

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
