We Are Still Here!

Together.on.Couch

Hello There!!  We are still here but experiencing some technical problems, amongst other things.  First of all, my faithful little hp Notebook died.  It gave one last exhalation, the lights blinked on and then off.  Alas, rest in peace my dear computer which has been our companion for six years and used to accompany us into town during our Internet cafe years.

RIP Computer.
RIP Computer.

And so we have one computer to share which is actually “Gnome’s Laptop.”  it has been hard to get a Munchkin schedule on the computer because Gnome is temporarily out of action.  Yes, the hand is still swollen…

Gnome has been watching films back to back because he can’t do anything with a swollen left hand.  I really didn’t want to take the computer off him because he was seriously climbing the walls with boredom.  Anyway, the hand is getting better and I am sure we can work on a computer schedule so that I can write posts on a more regular basis!

Oh, and in addition to the computer breaking down (what next, huh?), the printer has carked it too!  So now we have to do “labels on-the go” as we get orders.  This means that before delivery, we have to go to the Internet cafe to print out labels.  We then cut and paste the labels in the car before we pack everything up to send.

The other day I forgot the glue stick so had to do another circle around town to pick up glue and return to Tropic Air to stick on the labels.  Last minute packing is done in the car-park at Tropic Air!!

Despite all this, I would like to think we are delivering the best service!!
