i don't know if you guy's still know me( or want to know me) after such a long time,but here i am with a new update

last september i've decited to do something ( more) about my financial situation.
i started a gardening business for my self, and the way to start it up was to first make some money, working as a job-agency worker at heineken ( i guess you heard about this dutch company before).
the work at heineken worked out pretty well, they are very flexible with my shelter schedule, and i can basicaly work as much as i want.
so i decided to keep on working at heineken.
i still have the gardening company running, and i still do some little jobs here and there, but.......

the result is that i am working one week on at the shelter as nightman from sunday evening till thursday morning, have the weekends of ( i have quit working as custodian at crossroads), and work the next week at heineken.

at heineken i start working at 6 in the morning till 3 in the afternoon ( officialy sometimes a bit more).
i really started to like the contacts with the colleges at heineken, so that is what kept me there.

the work is not all that interesting, filling up roll containers with kegs of beer or crates of other drinks.
it is weird to be so occupied all week, normally i would work one week on, one week of, and the week at the shelter would be my busy week.
now that is just the other way around.
the week that i work at the shelter is the week that is more relaxed compare to the week that i work at heineken.
i need my weekends of.

i'm really grateful to marco who has organiz
ed breakfast meetings every saterday at my place at the 2e schinkelstraat.
that way i see a bit more of the staff out side of the shelter.

the first 2 weeks of may a couple of us went camping in zeeland again.
first i went down there to set up with some old staffmembers, they stayed for one night and the next day they went home and resent staff came the same day to replace them.
that way about 10 people came out to camp
it was a blessed

. at home things start to fall more in to place as well
my pigeons and the guinea-pig and the rabbit are out side.
( to much mess, to much smell, to much noise)

josh suggested me to buy a water pipe and at heineken i've brought a empty beer keg that i turned in to a bbq.

down the street i've found an old bathtub,so we made a pone out of it.

i'm happy

feel free to come and check it out
we have a place to stay for you
