…until next time, when we will have sorted out this mess you see before you, and can then return to living a proper life, one that includes SWEATERS, scarves, tights, bread pans, mugs larger than thimbles, metal knitting needles (can’t take those on planes, don’t forget) the yarn stash, four pounds of raisins (WHY did we pack that??), all manner of flour, candied ginger, oat bran, and all manner of other good things.
UK friends can look forward to us sharing more goodies now. Huzzah!
We have had the ASTONISHINGLY good blessing of having only one glass broken, the fender on D’s cruiser bike slightly dented, and ONE bottle of paprika inhabited with strange gray… apparently paprika-loving grubs. Other than a little dust from sitting for two weeks in a freezing cold warehouse, our possessions – opened thus far — look like we could have packed them up yesterday. We are feeling very, very grateful, having heard horror stories of how bad it can be.
We sleep tonight in a room full of boxes, but under our very own blanket at last.

Holy crap! I guess we won’t be seeing you for awhile… let us know when you get done!

Yeah!!!!! It must feel like Christmas a couple of months early!
Well done. A sense of being at home at last. Also, your comment system is up and running here again.
Huzzah!! I am so happy for you! It must be such a relief to have your comforts around again.
WHOOOOO HOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That’s all I have to say.
Oh, boy — does that look familiar! We had two separate households — one from the two years we spent in Wales and one from our nine years in Japan — delivered within two weeks of each other. We’d just gotten 65% of the first lot put away when the second lot arrived. I felt like sitting down and crying.
