Moved In!

We are finally in our new home in Satun, Thailand. It has been an eventful week. We lined up a big moving truck to pick up all of our stuff on Tuesday and spent the whole Monday finishing up packing and sorting everything to be ready to put onto the truck the next morning at 8:30 am. Then, Tuesday morning 8:30 am arrives... no truck. 9:30 am arrives...no truck. I tried to call the owner of the truck. There was some confusion as to what he said, then he hung up. What??? 10:30 a.m...no truck. 11:30 a.m...We ask Ong to call and talk with the owner, who says that he will contact the driver for us. Okay...I guess we wait. 2:30 p.m....still no truck. Ong suggests that we start looking for another one. What fun!
But, Praise the Lord, He provided a truck locally in just a few hours and we asked them to come at 7 a.m the next morning.
Now, after a long day of loading, driving, and unloading and 5 more days of unpacking, our house is starting to look like a house again. (Although we are not there yet).
Thanks so much for your prayers!!
