Where We Are

Most of you don't know that we're missing, but some of you who live close to us realize we're AWOL. We're at our in-laws' house right now. We were supposed to be home from house shopping on Wednesday, but we ran into a snag. Yes, our car broke down. As in, broke down, unable to run, smoke coming from various points of the car. The Lord, being the Lord, provided a ride to our in-laws within ten minutes, with a man who needed to hear about Jesus. :) (He thought we needed the same; what fun JWs are!) So, we rode for two hours with a new friend who has a lot to think about. Before the breakdown our in-laws already planned on giving us their car for our house hunt, while they arranged to have ours fixed. They got more than they bargained for, since they were the ones who went up to get the car, bring it back here, and oversee the repairs. Basically, the car needs a new engine. Entirely new engine. It was supposed to be done yesterday, but there were complications. Now we're on day 2, not knowing when the car will be done, not knowing when we're going home. (We're counting on today.) I'm glad the Lord doesn't need me at work to provide for us. I'm also glad we have understanding supervisors back home.

In other news, we think we found a house. I'll try to post a picture of it in a minute.
