Bonjour,

During the night, Joe had an idea about how to get the internet working
temporarily until the stolen cable gets replaced. He took our wireless
router over to the Engelharts' house this morning. It didn't work at
first because there were too many cement walls in the way. So, they ran
a phone line up the Litsons' steps. Now, we have internet via the
wireless router. However, there are still a few glitches. We haven't
been able to send e-mails. So, you will get a backlog of several days
when they do go through.

Today was garage cleaning day. The dust in the garage stirred Joe's
asthma up. He has been having trouble with asthma the past few days.
He will probably have to go to the doctor in the morning.

Joe and the boys went into Anyama to get a light bulb for the garage.
We got everything reorganized in the garage and didn't find any more snakes.

The children and I walked down to the boutique with Margie. I needed to
get some eggs. I was making hamburger buns for supper and forgot that I
was out of eggs.

Margie came over for awhile. She wanted to see the swing set. Then,
she played a matching game with Gilbert. I was working on supper.

A demain,

Joe, Laura, Gilbert, Danny, and Bonnie
