Hanging on the telephone

It may have taken a good long while (around 2 and a bit weeks), but I finally have the marvelous technology that is the telephone connected at the house. The next hurdle will be to connect to the internet (this will take another week or so, apparently). Given that all the instructions are in German, it may take a good deal longer than that. It is just as well that Richard works at a Uni, and students still work for beer. We should be able to convince someone to help us get it sorted - I will even throw in a hot meal if the situation becomes desperate enough.

Since moving to Germany, I have finally begun to learn the art of patience. It has been a difficult lesson to learn, but I am getting there (she says rocking back and forth mumbling "I'm in my happy place, I'm in my happy place....")
