I’m attempting to post this from my phone. if you’re reading this, it means I was successful. When it rains it pours, and last week as Adam and I passed the time in our hotel room in Charlotte, my computer apparently got a virus and the Geek Squad guy at Best Buy advised me to just buy a new one as the cost of fixing it isn’t worth it. UGH. We just got our current one TWO years ago.

At any rate, we moved out of the hotel ASAP as there was not even a fridge or a microwave in that joint. I couldn’t stand the thought of another take out meal, so I went to my parents for the weekend while Thomas was away. Jeannie came down too in order to escape hurricane Sandy, so we helped The Old Man throw an office party. It was a grand old time, and I ate a s’more or five.

Thomas, Adam and I are living in a furnished place that was generously offered by a family with an apartment over their garage. We are deeply grateful for a place to call home for the coming weeks, and a really cute place to boot! I will be posting microwave and toaster oven recipes soon as we don’t have an oven here. Did you know you can make shrimp and salmon in a toaster oven?!

    Hi! I have been a following your blog for awhile, but have never commented! I came upon your blog through Josh. My husband, Jacob, and I are over the program he came through when he came to Asia. I have enjoyed following you through life’s ups and downs and have prayed for you guys through those times too. I’m so glad to hear that you guys have a place you can call home for awhile. I’m so sorry to hear about your computer. My husband did IT work for several years, and we were both surprised to hear that a virus would mean you need to get a new computer. It just doesn’t sound right to us. We don’t know all the information so we could be wrong, but I just wanted you to know our first reaction. Computers can be such a headache sometimes!
