intenet woes

An addition to our "You know you're not in 'Kansas' anymore" post....

You know you're not in Kansas anymore... when the internet goes down in mid December at an international ministry base that houses several different schools and ministries and is used by 100 staff and students and the prognosis is: it'll be fixed by mid-January. And in the beginning of Feb it is still not functioning properly.

So we've had very limited internet access. I'm at a coffee shop right now to use the wireless. Our internet is also down at home and since our landlord is out of the country, we get to wait.

So we apologize for the lack of communication. Hopefully we'll have things straightened out soon. It's all part of the fun!

But I guess even this is not such a serious hardship. I was joking with Coke (Hans' mom) about how we were roughing it because we have to hang dry our clothes (we have a washer but no dryer)... Putting it all in perspective, we really don't have it so bad. I mean, we have access to internet. We have a washing machine. And for that I am incredibly grateful. We can deal with sporadic internet and a little wet laundry!

(And by the way, neither of us have ever lived in Kansas)
