At Last!

First of all, thank you to everyone who has been praying for my medical situation. Whatever it was, it was not appendicitis, even though it hurt in exactly the right place. My guess is that the anti-spasmodic they gave me at the hospital did the trick. In a few minutes I’ll be taking my final [...]

Is It Apendicitis?

by Jerry on August 24, 2011

in Blog,Daily Life,Prayer Requests

What a week so far! Getting diagnosed and treated is often a frustrating labyrinth of going from here to there and then back again for something no one told you that you needed. That gets multiplied when you add in a bit of a language barrier and then the cultural differences. But hey! I survived. [...]

Peter had to drop off his vehicle at the repair shop this morning, so I followed him into town to give him a ride back. There is a Coast Guard cutter in town today and I mentioned to Peter that last time there was one here I’d tried to get a tour, but my timing [...]

Mildred and I had big, big plans for this week. Now we have the same big, big plans for next week. Why? Well, I’ll explain. Mildred needs to buy some medicines over on the mainland where they are not as expensive as on the island. I have an item to look for for the radio [...]

I Like Hash, But Not in My Wires.

Our electrical woes are not quite over. The new wires sure seemed to make a difference, but we were getting voltage sags many times per day on one of our three phases ever since the wire got connected. So, yesterday I set up a multi-meter and an oscilloscope on the phase in question and I [...]

Someone asked us recently what I’d been doing while Jerry was occupied with a trip to Utila, painting the new mower, making a door for the container, installing our new house A/C unit, and all the electrical problems. So here I am writing a post for our blog. Often, when you view Jerry’s videos, I’m [...]

It’s been a week since the last blog post. There has been so much going on that I’ve been wanting to get on here to update you, but there’s been so much going on that I haven’t had the time or energy to do so. It’s been an unusually stressful week, but not without accomplishment. [...]

I had a pleasant surprise this morning. Last week on Tuesday I talked to the manager of our electric company, RECO about the possibility of getting a new power feed to the radio station. He said that he would have his engineer look into it and I should call him back the following Tuesday, which [...]

Stopping a Drip

It’s been great having a shipping container (kindly left behind by the Henderson family) in which to store and protect our lawn mower and many other things. But, if you’ve ever operated the doors on one, you know that they are not all that convenient. They are designed for security, not ease of use. Add [...]

We have a bit of a multimedia extravaganza this week. I’ll start off with a short video that shows a little more about my adventure in Utila last week. Pictures are fun, but so are movies. It’s in hi definition so don’t be afraid to click that little full screen button in the bottom right [...]

Well, our electrical mess is still a mess. Peter and I were going to get in touch with the electric company (RECO) on Monday, but that didn’t work out. It’s crazy how seldom things go according to plan here. I found out on Friday that our AM signal was off the air. Since we cannot [...]
