It's SOOO Cold!!!

This morning was freezing! It was -5C (23F) when we left Haarlem and by the time we got to Beverwijk it was -11C (12F). I do believe is the coldest weather we have had since we've been here. Even the day when it dumped snow wasn't this cold! It’s not inspiring to get up and move about.

Yesterday (Monday) Kelly and I started working on the bin locations for the warehouse. We came up with the KAM method. Instead of writing it down on paper then re-typing it up, we just took our mobile laptops out there and put it directly into the computer. We're little geniuses I tell you! We got about half the warehouse done yesterday and hopefully we will get the other half done today.

On the brightest side of things, we got full internet capabilities as of Sunday night. It still wasn't working and our landlord came over and worked his magic, made a few calls, and viola! It works! Kelly and I are so happy! We can now video chat and other cool things like that. One of the other interns in the program got sent to Australia and didn't have internet outside of work. I don't know how she did it. Hence, the recognition on my blog. I'm sure it will make up for all the pain and suffering endured. Now that we have internet, we can download our shows that we are missing in the U.S. We have to keep up on Grey's, Private Practice, Brothers & Sisters, Desperate Housewives, The Good Wife, and Ugly Betty. We had to limit things there, especially when it is $2 an episode. We enjoy our TV time though. We need to find a cable to hook the laptop to the TV. That is our next project.

I hope everyone has a great Tuesday!
