Ok, honestly, I'm not sure who is more pathetic--Me and my husband and the fact that the only form of transportation that we had was a bike. (and he used it to get to his barely-over-minimum-wage job) Or, the person that STOLE his bike a few days ago? Maybe it's in the basement of the Alamo? Please pray for us. teresa

You are so Pilgrimish! I've been robbed many times. Just let it go. Go to Craigslist and buy another bike for $30. or so.

We aren't Pilgrims by choice, we are "American Poor". But I don't mind.
I do sort of feel like a Pilgrim when I hang up all our wet clothes (at least 2 loads a day) up to dry INSIDE our house, because we don't have a working dryer.
But really, I feel like we are rich. Besides that, it's funny how our lifestyle right now is accidently, strikingly similar to how people live in Istanbul (where we want to live) Maybe God is preparing us?

Well, my Dad lives with us. He is a professor, so he has to have a computer. He pays for his internet and we use it sometimes. He only works part time, so he doesn't have a lot of money either. We have gone through 2 used dryers in the past 2 years but both of them broke. It's really not that big of a deal though.
peace teresa

LOL! Yeah, but if you didn't have a car(like us) how would you take your clothes there?
By the way, I keep forgetting to say this, but you are really, really pretty!
