The van...(insert eyeball roll here)

Ergh...Ken just called and is at the side of the highway as the van has broken down. Our insurance does, however, cover free towing. I am frustrated because we had to cancel our dinner plans for tonight. We had been looking forward to it all week long! Since our friends are also missionaries, they are church planters, it is hard in our ministry schedules to get together! We have a lot in common with them and enjoy any time that we get to be together. They also homeschool, love board and card games (very competitive). Sometimes, when we are together, we just sit around and laugh at our stories of adapting to this culture and how things are done! Oh, the stories!

Hopefully, the cost of the repairs won't be too much. That's why I put at the top, "insert eyeball roll here". Somedays, it just feels like you cannot get ahead!

Guess I best get in the kitchen and see what I can come up with for dinner ideas!

P.S. To my brother, your question about which team we will cheer for: We will be supporting Costa Rica because it would be scary to do anything else but that since soccer is taken very seriously here! We will wear red, white and blue since the flag here is the same colors as back home! No wigs!
