White Outline Around My Tattoo

Tabernacles



Our little hut is almost finished. The eco-roof is corrugated on it. Was a little expensive and complicated it, but it was worth it to me. Meanwhile, the windows also have shutters, the doors in and the cracks are most are covered with panels.

There is still front and back. The constant rain has us work a bit more difficult and delayed. The rest will catch up, we just now when we live there. Then it will be easier because omitted the 1.5 hours by train and 1.5 hours departure.

morning it's ready. We will pack our belongings and a small truck and son into an Antonina. I'm so excited again bowel problems, persistent hiccups and stomach pain. We are therefore here today remained on the beach, to stow away in peace our stuff in boxes and to relax a little. For diarrhea without a toilet is not even funny. The toilet we have to build yet. Will probably be the first thing we will tackle ...

Hanna and luma have already taken the little hut owned and maintained bone Vesper. The cats band is tuned tomorrow. No, not as a snack. We will bring it tomorrow and will be making her new house. Yes I'm curious how this works. Fortunately, there are only 8 cats ....

We have invisible neighbors. In addition to the little hut stands a little tree, to live a couple of little creatures. To view it, you'll have to look very carefully:

Well, here's a close-up. Is not it great, the caterpillar? The trunk is full of it. No idea if they eat bark. Anyway, they are hardly seen. Whether out of them, the giant blue butterflies once that buzz around us? I'll be watching the whole time ...

bamboo nursery

Of the 50 seeds that I bought three weeks, after two weeks already risen some. 22 delicate Pflänzlein of Guadua chacoensis, a native bamboo species in southern Brazil that grows up to 25 meters and a diameter has about 12 to 15 centimeters. The walls of this type are very thick, so that it can make a kind of slats and a laminate. It is also used to build houses and scaffolding. Until we reap

the first bamboo rods from the Pflänzlein, it continues for at least three years.


Matschweg to our little hut ...


must be respected at every step. Not only because of the risk of slipping. Alessandro was yesterday almost stepped on a snake. In view of the black thing that came up there on her, she just looked quickly but still the distance.


I was twelve years ago, I absolutely do not understand for what physics should be informed. We have made such great efforts, such as dissolving the surface tension of water with dish liquid. The fact that this works, we had children already established itself long before. In our experiments on the stream with the water hose, we had also found that the water at both ends will always be high, no matter how you hold the hose. Why should I learn it all over again in school where it should be there to teach me new things. I had declared quite indignant our physics teacher. Remember I had on Monday as Alessandro and Renato have set the levels for teaching. With a hose full of water, a pen and a few chosen branches.

Would not run out of sand, brick Renato had only on Monday of the remaining footings. So he had to wait until Tuesday and that we have brought some of the sand on the dirt road to the property. Then it was true quality. Framework explored and nailed down. Boards nailed to the walls turn. And you looked after all the little hut:

knew this Renato, where he is to leave gaps for the windows, I painted him a quick little sketch. On an empty toilet paper roll. I just had otherwise no other piece of paper to hand.

A bit different from what I wanted to, it has become our little hut. No matter. It works this way and is supposed to serve only as a transition. After the rainy season, we will try to harvest bamboo with a few neighbors, treat and dry, and then in the Brazilian winter, in the dry season, to build a real little house. The bamboo and clay. Until then we will come with 12 square deal.

So far I have always lived very extravagantly, in terms of the square. House or large apartment, it had to be. But I also know to cope with more than I've found four years ago when I have admitted only with a backpack and suitcase on a new life. I have the time less as a constraint, but rather as an enrichment. It's amazing how we humans can adapt to different situations and how that can even be fun. We must admit to just that. The next challenge is therefore called, come with limited space cope.
addition to the little hut but it is also to be a small barn and lots of outdoor area and a pleasant climate in which we are not so dependent on the Drinnensein, as is the case in Germany. So it's not so bad. The

with the water and power we have not really solved. Once we are in the little hut, we will also take in the attack. Until we have found a solution, there is a Gaslämplein, drinking water from the supermarket and showers with his mother, in the little town 10 km away.

"back to stone age", my ma has dubbed our first future of housing. I see it more as a "forward into the modern age". Away from conventional paths, free from ballast, to a nearly autonomous life and above all a more environmentally friendly life.

I know it's a privilege to be woken by birdsong, the order to be allowed to own land, tomatoes, potatoes, salad for their own use to grow and to tinker incidentally still own project. Our bamboo project.

"Dear barefoot to the beach, with the Mercedes to the office," I will now not be able to say. There will be called "Dear woken by birds singing, as frightened by the alarm clock "....

Schläferstündchen

Schläferstündchen under "Lirio Thurs Breijo"


door guard Hanna


A summer between pure water days. Actually more of a "Hundstag", a very hot day. As the two ladies were especially busy to look for a shady spot. I also. I admit it. The welding I just ran down Sun

The wood for the little hut was delivered. No easy task. The road is now only prepared to part. I was not before but even this partial trust. Paulo can be tilted a few weeks ago just rubble on the muddy ground, claiming that this will be of "boards hard." It was not. After a few meters of the truck was stuck. Alessandro was horrified. "We have ruined the road and you're to blame," he angrily threw me on the head. Because of guilt. I still say the truck driver that the road is good and not to unload in front of goal because he is already gas. It took a little until the truck was released. A little longer it lasted until I had the wide-open driving grooves filled again with the already marginalized stones. Only at one point, I have to work a little bit, because where the biggest puddles caused by road and can be no question anymore.

The fact that the road is now partially ruined, I think, however not so bad. From the beginning, I said that it does not work, just to throw stones or grit to clay soil. The rainwater flows merrily through the stone layer through, accumulates on the compacted clay and hey presto, the shipping channel to the swimming channel, which also moves with little weight already on the page. My advice was therefore Gelautet beginning of that to take about 10 centimeters thick layer of clay or to create a drainage channel every few yards before a riprap is applied. To what women say, is here but is still less than in Germany. By the last episode they now have proof that their idea was not so good. Goofy is that cost us the story of two days. Half a day I was busy trying to correct the mishap a little. Then I helped Alessandro, carry the wood for the piece by piece to the property.



Because it is fresh wood, it has a lot of weight. We were able to supply only two boards or shoulder bars. The 500 meters to the property before I came here as some Kilomter. I think we have put at least two marathons back. 86 boards, 20 slats, 25 some four meters long bar, about 52 times the distance now and then run back. 982 steps down, 1453 serious steps back. Now it's almost done. The wood stock is set up. The bamboo camp also. Marcia has already given us a bit of bamboo. He was easier to bear. Although he is treated, whether or dried. To build a temporary Stadl but it's enough.



From tomorrow it will be easier. Not only because of the heavy transport eliminates foot. We have hired a helper. Renato. He lives in the area, worked as a carpenter and is now retired. A tall man with broad back and strong arms. Only briefly, I explained to him how I imagine the Holzhüttlein so and already he has started to plan when he will do something. Starting early in the morning, will he the same, he told me once before and sent to the shops. The sand that we had bought, was washed away by rain the past week. So you have new here, because without any concrete sand for the brick footings.

What Free Is Adoult Said

round bamboo fever

Before:

After:

lie between three days of hard work. The plant in the background, which is Lirio Breixo Thurs. A spur plant with huge rhizomes, propel funny new Pflänzlein right, even if only a fraction of the rhizome remains lie. So it means first of all, cut and plant compost pile somewhere on the hill. Then, the Alessandro comes with a hoe and chop out the roots, we also carry away. It is quite a tough job that has caused some blisters. After five days we have it but already managed to prepare the area for the little hut, dig four foundation points and with stones and sand to fix. Absence of two foundation points. The bricks with which we will make the point foundation, we have already brought to the site. Four trips to the "Hardware-Winzladen" because the supply just could not. Until we brick, cement, lime and sand were finally on site, several kilometers were completed - not only by car but on foot. From the street there are about 500 - 600 meter mud track does not match up to our property and in the wheelbarrow as much pure stuff. The new wheelbarrow has now also been demolished. Tomorrow I will try first to get spare parts, screws and nuts. Then we need a little more sand, so that we can support the foundation. Thereafter, the timber is ordered. One after the other.


between, we have again just helped a Japanese woman to build a kind of tent made of bamboo scaffolding. As will meet next weekend a few hundred Japanese. They celebrate 100 years of emigration to Brazil. At the end of the 19th Century, slavery in Brazil finally officially (the last country in the world ..) was abolished, the plantation owners were absent workers. So they have some recruited abroad, in Japan, Italy, and even in Germany. The poor, they thought, they are given a piece of land on which they can build their future. However they ended up in sweatshops that dealt not just friendly with them. Gradually, the "new" but by, were put to work or fled the country and took what had been promised. German settlements, settlements, Italian and even Japanese were also settlements. Where the Japanese settlement began, a Japanese family living with a woman named Marcia. I know they recently learned. Someone had told me that they grow bamboo. So I had been searching and I found it. Huge bamboo clumps are on their property. They use the bamboo but only sporadically to win sprouts and sometimes to sell a few bamboo poles. The rods have a diameter of almost 20 centimeters. Gigantic beautiful. Marcia had invited me immediately to help her and her friends in the construction of the roof structure. That I could not turn down, I could then at least a little bit to learn. Unfortunately, the friend who should understand something of bamboo, has been found to be complete Bambuslaie. Who knew a little more, was the 83-year-old father of Marcia, who together with us the heads up and down climbed 25 meters long and harvested several pounds heavy bamboo sticks with us and transport and has an enviable strength and endurance of the day presented. The tent frame is and is quite einkrachsicher, even if we used instead of right connections only wire to secure the poles. The bamboo we have not treated not harvested during a waning moon and not even in the dry season, we still have to dry himself. This means that he will have such a short shelf life. Marcia says he does not hold because it is degraded after the event, the tent again. Then they will give me the bars. So that we can ever build a sort of open shed. I am the bars but still dry all the connections and modify. A foundation is thus laid already. Also tomorrow we will have to pick up the rest of bamboo, a few younger, not so thick bamboo poles and slats, which we used, are collected in exuberance of zeal, however. The first foundation is laid.


The second foundation is already laid. The yellow ribs up there, are the seeds of Guadua chacoensis, a native bamboo species. I bought the bamboo group on the web. Hopefully go on a few of the seeds. Following are three to four weeks, the first offspring show, it says in the description. I look every few hours even if they do not but are faster ...

Stones At Uretero-vesical Junction

cats Bank of bamboo


Over one hundred percent humidity!


Since all moldy. Bamboo, wood, leather and even CDs.


Thanks Sam's Tip, I've managed to the bamboo mold to expel it. It worked, Sam. At the pharmacy I bought a bleaching agent and thus smeared the mold-infested areas. It has foamed a little. In the sun, the foam is dried up and away was the mold. So far he has not come back again. However, the sun, the beautiful Urucum orange faded a little. Does not matter. Will look for a way to fix the pigment better. I also will not use more linseed oil. For attracts not really into the bamboo, but creates a beautiful white horse humidity. Maybe it will work out to rub the Urucum directly into the bamboo, just no linseed oil, and then on the bamboo with a water-based paint to paint. A new test object for that I already have.

The past few days we have built a sofa bed made of bamboo. It's a bit time consuming, but the results speak for themselves.

Even the slats we have made of bamboo. The bamboo is to split lengthwise. The resulting strips have to be carved only on the edges smooth. Because of the bamboo so round, it must be the bottom flattened a bit. Done.



Then all assembled, equipped with bamboo dowels and their supernatants cut. Here is a little sanding and you'll be on the bamboo bed can be used.

The cats band is quite excited about the bamboo bed, even if the final touch and the paint still missing. When everything is ready, of course I will again take a picture ...

The nice thing about a trellis made of bamboo is that it adapts to the body. Where the weight is greater, he gives in, for example at the bottom, and there where less weight rests, it supports. Another advantage of the bamboo bed is that it is completely free of metal, because instead of nails or screws used to anchor made of bamboo. Moreover, it is very easy.

A few people who happen are passed when we were on the porch at the potter, stopped curious and were quite pleased with our work. A neighbor has given us even like a contract to build a deck. Until we can devote ourselves to, but will still take a little time. Last weekend, our landlady came to visit us at times just casually announce that it has sold the house yet and we shall come out as quickly as possible to move because the new owners want. First it was said that by mid-November, we should get out in just under three weeks. A little delay is but I managed. By the end of November, we must now vacate the house. I'm quite happy drum, because I anyway so wanted to get out as quickly as possible.

were yesterday and the day we have to prepare on the property, a place for a small little hut of 12 square meters. Our preliminary stay until we build a little house bigger. Twelve-square is not much, but enough. After all, we are also a kind of build an open hut, can also be used to determine under things. One problem is still the toilet. For now it will probably be a Plumplsklo. Running water is not yet so. Except in the stream course. Whether we can derive a bit of it, in order to drive a water wheel, do not know yet. The Environment Agency has not reported yet, unfortunately. Therefore, white I do not whether we should build a constructed wetland and a rain water cistern, as we have applied for them. No matter. Now, first of all, a little hut built and then gradually to the rest. I'm really excited. Finally we go.

Sure, I will report our progress gradually from the "project". There will be but a little delayed. Electricity is still not fact. Only a few solar garden lamps, which sent me my mom has to be shed light on us the night a bit, until we have bought a larger photovoltaic module, which we then still be able to supply a couple of lamps and the PC with power. As for now we are a refrigerator box Isopor must serve. There are even refrigerators that are powered by a gas cylinder. But these are quite expensive. Somehow and at some point we get the well resolved. Anyway, I'm looking forward to living on the edge of the rainforest and to realize a small Ökotraum ...

Example Car Sales Letter

bamboo in the phone and in front of the mouse

Is not that a great Orange? Once treated with linseed oil and Urucum is more of a yellow-orange similar to the "Indian yellow". The second time it will be toll-orange. Only against the mold, I have found nothing. Currently, once again 100 percent humidity, as well as moldy dried and treated bamboo. In general moldy everything: shoes, cupboards and even CDs. Only the wood shelf that I have taken up with chemistry (Hydronort, a kind of spar varnish), is mold-free.

Our new phone. The old one had at least eight years on the hump, has closed its service. The new one was immediately provided with the background image. It is a bamboo grove in Kyoto. I found the photo on the net on a German site and was thrilled. Whether the photographer knows that Motorola is using his photo as wallpaper?

The mobile phone we need, because we do not have a phone line on our property and in view of the installation cost of 4000 R $ (!) As soon not have. At one point, the top of the hill but there is cell phone reception. I am intrigued by the price. Just 49 R $ it has cost about 19 €. Unbelievable cheap. Because once again walk away 15 R $ for the supplied chip. Stay mobile phone costs 34 R $. After deduction of transport costs and taxes (here at 60% though!), Would only stay still so left around 15 reais product costs. No idea how can make such a concentration of technology for the price (about 5 €!). I guess that it is sold below cost, because it is a bit outdated, has no built fotoaparát and all other Gedöhnse that nobody needs anyway, such as radio or TV. Not that I am opposed to radio or television. On the contrary. I use both. But not on the phone with the phone.

the bamboo forum they have recently introduced a cell phone with bamboo housing. More specifically, glued bamboo. Looks like a wood veneer, very noble.

Christian Phrase Tattoo



linseed oil with Urucum, two hours, heated in water bath. Looks like John's wort oil. To promote wound healing and even - except that it turns everything orange. 've Already tried the bamboo roughened with sandpaper and rubbed with the oil. Is really beautiful. Photos of the result, I will set the next day.

The paper will, however, at some point of an acrylic shell made by the bending in the same, if I accidentally pick up on it ...

Imagine, today we were actually at the Environment Agency. It took some time. First, it had rained in torrents. Then the car the exhaust is again dropped. Fortunately we were already on the shop nearby. Then suddenly missing documents about which I was sure that I had already printed. Yes, and because Murphy's Law reigns in us, the ink had dried on the printer. When I had yesterday but at last, all the points, kept me anything today. Not even the heavy rain. Maybe you're thinking that I spin a little, because of the rain. The rain is often all but as if he were paid down with rain. Then I see as much as when I crawl through a car wash. The blacktop the road turns into a skating game while still full of holes, which are then sheer puddles unrecognizable as such. These are still the idiots who think Baricelli play and risk the lives of other road users need to. All this played no role for me today. The car was filled up, the tire pressure checked, and the new exhaust welded, replaced the missing documents. It took a while before I could persuade my sweet to the task. Then everything went completely painless. The Assistant to the Environmental Agency was very friendly. She was probably a little of the thousands of papers impressed that I have served as her Sun Many of them were provided with official stamps, others have had I copy and certify with a seal, so they hermachen more. Woman learns to do so. Stamp paper and impressed, so I filled them both. Also good that the topographer, who has taken our land (ha, just once outside, the rest of the computer!) Is the environmental agency known as reliable. His name on one of the papers has flayed the same impression. It could be that we have in two weeks would get out a visit, said the assistant. Which we then explained that we for the construction of the house would make no request as long as it is built outside the provisions for nature conservation areas. Alessandro could not keep his mouth shut and has even just been made to the law, after just a permit is already required. May be, the girl said, but to get it, should not be a problem. I won! NO PROBLEM! Wish us once crossed that the officer see the same way. Ye gods and spirits, is with us ....

Actually, we would have had to wait still the decision by the Office of colonization, in order to apply for the tax numbers. The tax number is required by the Environment Agency namely, that they ever the application process. The Office of colonization seems in spite of the early spring or winter rest to rule. Several calls have led to no result. I explained to the nice assistant at the Environmental Agency and its equally be given more copies of the applications for the Office of colonization, then the certified signatures of all neighbors do to prove that the property exists and is ours and the neighbors it is recognized. Yes, and it worked .... Jippih ... If I had champagne on hand now, I would drink a Stampferl it. I get to where the officer was with us on the property and has given us his OK!

So to us the next two weeks pressing our fingers crossed. Please ...

What Does The * Mean In Calculator



"Now I just need Urucum" I say to Re. Her name is actually Rechelaine (pronounced Rescheleine), but all call it Re, said, "He". Re is one of our neighbors. It reminds me a little of my Rosina from home. Both are very down to earth and hide huge treasures of knowledge that most of us know only from books and documentaries. "Ha," says Re, "I know where a growing shrub. As on land next to the Japanese." Already we trudge along towards Japanese. As it stands, the shrub. Even has some seed capsules, which are already cracked. Later, Alessandro and I go again out to harvest a few pods.


Gross is not the yield. For starters, it's enough, however. For now, I only want to try again, what can be produced for color is it and how can I use it on the bamboo.


Together with cat Sissi I Puhle the seeds from the capsules. Sissi is wild about the seed pods that look almost like the capsules of the book Eggern. That the colored Urucum actually, I notice it after a few minutes, with a look at my fingers. They are orange-red, as I would have just handled with henna. After that I'll have the seeds crushed in a mortar and a first attempt Start with linseed oil.


Urucum growing almost everywhere in South America. The kitchen is similar to saffron as a dye used, for example, to brown sauces or chicken. Some food manufacturers prefer the coloring of Urucum (INS160b) the artificial dyes. It is probably cheaper. He is also healthier. Therefore, it is not surprising that Urucum was discovered even in the cosmetics industry. Who knows, maybe you have it you ever been so smeared on the lips. For instead of the red of the lipstick from lice or gain artificial blood, can also Urucum use the top of that from UV rays intended to protect. The eco-cosmetics company Aveda has come up with the benefits in 1992 and initiates convince even some projects with Tribos of Indios in the Amazon. The company buys the Indians from the Urucum at a much higher price than they would get from local dealers. A report to follow the U.S. company has invested well eingie dollars in the construction of schools, hospitals and solar panels for the Indians. "Rio 92" as it should be: Eco-friendly and socially responsible Komerz.

Another addendum to yesterday:

split the bamboo in a green state, it pulls together different degrees during drying. Thus, from the former round bamboo a "roller bamboo. The crack is only up to the first diaphragm. The diaphragms are like crack brakes.

Pilates Ring Exercises Bow Legs

groping

some point we should light the way to the tulip house ...

Seen In daylight, it looks like this:


Fast it is ready, our first bamboo lamp. My lesson. Working with her has taught me that the bamboo is actually not wood. Wood can be beschnitzen easier. No, the statement is not really. Probably the Beschnitzen of bamboo is also quite easy, once I know its idiosyncrasies better. For wood white I forked branches, deposits, roots, since breaks around the wood. When it comes, however, bamboo cracks quickly when I carve vertically. He is a little brittle. Almost like elm. Vertical sashayed carving knife better. Since then I have to extra careful that there are no cracks.

edit I have the bamboo in green condition, I need less power than when it is already almost dry. This has the disadvantage that leaner spacers bend later on drying in any direction. The picture that comes out maybe not, but by bending, the right blade a little shifted to the inside. Three break points, all on the right side, almost on each other located, but not yet exactly one above the other, I have the hammer out of the hole structure caused. I'll stick with wood glue afterwards.



The light will be colored red. For this I must first grind a little. The skin is like a bamboo treated with wax or shellac surface, it is smooth and wasserabweusend, takes so little to color. Some mix of fine sand into the paint to achieve so that the color is not just dripping, but can be spread evenly. I'll try it first with roughening. A color I would like to use a mixture of linseed oil and pigments. Maybe I will Add the egg yolk with, so that the pigments better with the linseed oil mix. We'll see. The pigments I bought but not yet, but already selected. My choice has fallen on the "Urucum. A shrub-like plant that grows here in the Atlantic Forest and is used by the Indians to paint the body, and to keep away mosquitoes.

Here is a photo of Urucum (Bixa orellana ) that I have made near São Paulo ...



With our history it is home this week, unfortunately, did not go ahead. The Office of colonization has not yet summoned our request. Sigh. In addition, the rainy season started and changed the access to the property in a several decimetres deep mud road. We absolutely have to install a drainage or drainage channels. For a few hundred meters and very clayey, compacted soil is no fun task. However necessary.

I have finally managed to program the home page for a friend and ready to install, including database. If everything goes fine. The Seppl me spoil the soup but still quite nice. No "thank you", not "feeling it has come", no nothing. On the contrary, in the tone of an ancient ruler, he has demanded changes petty and large additions. First, I have given in, because the Courtesy of many people who live here on the coast, not so. Especially if they already have a little more money than the average, forget you ever fallen into the polite and rule. When, however, always arrived early morning calls from the Lord Ruler, I made my courtesy back and explained that I will take any calls because I namely at night on its site work and so late go to bed and generally do not one before that I should keep to his "waking hours". For I have mine, and if he wants something from me, he must abide by my waking hours. This has been sitting. After that it was only afternoon Calls. After the two-thousandth of Rulers call me last night but still cracked the collar, which meant that I've blocked a couple of applications on the site simple. He promptly called today, without saying "good day". Instead of "Excuse me, I would have got a question," he bleated into the phone, but now that I should change everything, because nothing more inputs. In a very polite tone, I explained to him that the reason is because I have blocked the sites and I would lift the blockades again only if he has learned to behave. Then I hung up. Since then, radio silence and me and my peace of mind it's damned good again.
