Thursday, April 18thStill no internet at the office. I am serious, it won’t even come up now. Hopefully Ana will throw a big enough fit that they will really do something about it now. For two days we have just been sitting around for 4 hours doing nothing!!
Alan and I went into town and picked up some things for the missionaries and when we got back we still had nothing. The computer specialists are coming from Liahona to look at it this afternoon. Hopefully by tomorrow things will be better.
We can’t get our emails, but Elder Reynolds called from New Zealand to tell us that our project had been on the agenda for the Area Presidency’s meeting but they didn’t get to it. Elder Dallin Oaks will be here tomorrow and he is touring the area. (Not Tonga!) The Area Presidency won’t be meeting again to look at our project for at least 2, maybe 3 weeks. Oh, I’m dying! We are so disappointed!! Alan called Sione to tell him about the delay. He is soooo patient. He said, “No worries, we can wait.” I guess I need some Tongan blood in me. Now I am worried that this delay will affect the momentum for our hygiene program, but with their attitudes maybe it won’t. I need to relax!
I spent some time this afternoon making a tin foil supper! The carrots are nasty here. They have no flavor but they do add color. The minced beef is a little questionable, but with an hour in the oven to kill whatever might not be good and a lot of cheese and ketchup, it tasted really good to us!!
Then we were off to the temple. Thank heaven for Thursdays. Going to the temple once a week helps me get through the week!
