Last few weeks have passed quite quickly. Getting things in their final locations after all of the collecting and moving of the summer. Jonathan tackled the upstairs and I laid into the office. Sounds like inequality doesn't it? but our office was a wrecking ground. Presently the shelves are even in logical order. @ like to attack the bottom two shelves and so there contents is empty 2 ring binders. Two nice things came out of this moving about: 1) we now have a 2 drawer file cabinet!! We've wanted and needed one for quite sometime but it wasn't possible. The 2 drawer file cabinets here are all over a 200USD and we just didn't think we could part with that for a file cabinet. But when our friends left we convienently borrowed/ purchased theirs. Yay, the paper is now safe from @ hands and dust (which curiously seems to ride together). 2) Jonathan bought us a satellite dish with desktop computer. Now Jonathan has a computer and I have one and we don't have to try to make time to be on or off. I've gotten a ton of stuff done in the last week. And the other out of this world thing, the satellite dish gets American programs. I get to watch the ABC early morning news around noon here. I completely love knowing what is going on in the world again. Its my new favorite thing. We have also managed so far (please pray) to not become complete tv junkies. I watch the news and do some business work. After @ goes to bed we check what is on for the evening, we have actually shut it off and read books. This is good news so far.
At this moment I was hoping to post a picture but the blog this icon on the toolbar doesn't seem to have that feature. Hmmm.
Living with a kind husband and 2 bewitching smaller people. Remembering everyday what it is to be blessed beyond measure.
