Although we hadn’t focused much on work or school work up until now, this is supposed to be a ‘working holiday’. Müfit is planning to do the equivalent of a few days of work each week, and I have articles to write for a long-term client. And the kids are supposed to be keeping up with their school work on the distance learning system.
After breakfast, I took the dogs for a walk while Müfit and the kids started work. When we’re not staying in an RV resort with wifi, the idea is to use Müfit’s phone. He has a US plan on there with data, and had already upped the data to 10GB before we left home. It quickly became obvious that this wasn’t going to be anywhere near enough as Sarah’s laptop had decided to randomly update itself and eat a gig of data in no time at all. The system that the kids have to log into also seemed to be way more data-hungry than we had expected also as they have to watch short videos among other things, so we spent a few hours panicking over what we were going to do. We looked into a few alternatives, but Müfit decided in the end that the easiest thing was to upgrade his plan again and to get 40GB. We just hope that will be enough now and that wifi in the RV parks is good enough for us all to get on with things.
So, today was a working day. Müfit had a few ‘meetings’; the kids did some work, and eventually I did a bit of work too. We had a few more short walks. Müfit and the kids took the dogs down for a walk along the beach, only to have Jasper randomly attacked by another dog who was on leash, but wasn’t, if you see what I mean. Jasper began to fight back but Müfit was able to yank the other dog off by pulling him away by the back of his neck before the dog’s owner, a woman, came over and apologised profusely. Luckily Jasper wasn’t injured at all, and after a moment he continued on his happy way as if nothing had happened. Jasper certainly has turned into a chilled dog after his crazy puppy years! We’re just very happy the other dog hadn’t decided to attack Charlie instead as that would have probably ended up very differently 😦
