Jen, THEE pioneer woman

The past few weeks, I've realized how dependent I've become on modern technology. The dishwasher broke. That was a sad day for Jen. So I went for about 3 weeks without one. I grew to love my husband more (he did a lot of dishes by hand), my children thought helping mom with dishes was a lot of fun, and I'll be forever grateful for the new one. I also didn't have internet for a week. I definitely depend on it a lot for EVERYTHING, especially out here. Shopping, my calling in church, and keeping in touch with people. I'm sooooo happy to have it all back :)

    I know how you feel Jen, a week without internet kills me. I'm glad everything is working for you now!

    (Big eye roll) Please Jen. I've been doing my dishes by hand for almost 2 years. But, I have to admit, I love my internet.

    papa says,
    Internet and dishwashers do not make you happy. Jeanette and I have lived most of our lives without either. Besides, "I invented the internet."

    A dishwasher is not over-rated. I think we haven't had one more than we have had one. But sounds like you made some fun memories.
