We need to recognize two of our most recent purchases. Thanks to some love and support from friends at home we were able to buy a new toilet for our guest bathroom and a dishwasher. As you may recall from two posts ago, the squatty potty began to emit a foul odor that left us with no choice but to upgrade to the western toilet. We found the nicest-cheapest toilet available and had some plumbers install it Monday morning. They tried to overcharge us for the installation, but thankfully Jayme’s Turkish is advanced enough that she was able to call them out. She also reprimanded them for smoking inside while we were away at language class. I was proud of her for putting her foot down and being the man of the house. Hopefully my language will soon catch up so I can regain some dignity and pride. A few weeks ago, a friend in the states realized how much a dishwasher could benefit us as we enjoy hosting on a regular basis. We have certainly been blessed by this generous gift and no one complains about loading or unloading the dishwasher. As a matter a fact, for some people it is a treat.

Hey Jared and Jayme! It's Sarah. We've been reading and really enjoying every update, especially the pictures. I just read (well, summarized) all of the blogs to my parents, and they thoroughly enjoyed the "squatty potty" pictures - they thought it was unbelievable! Ya'll are always in my thoughts and prayers, and I always wait on edge for the next day in the life.
Congrats on the toilet and dishwasher!
yay for the toilet! The girls at work at never seen a squatty potty before and so they are equally excited that your geusts have a real toilet to use.
