No Skype phone.

We are without a phone to call the States and connect with our families. This was especially hard over the Thanksgiving holiday. I just wanted to pick up the phone and hear them on the other end. We are working on getting the internet connection repaired...but until then it is dial-up and that is just not fast enough for a good Skype phone line to work. I know I will appreciate it more when we do get it repaired!
