No Longer Will We Be Vagabonds!

Yep you read that correctly, we will have a home again as of Tuesday afternoon! Woo Hoo! Our sea container arrived this past Saturday morning and we have been unpacking ever since. We didn't think we would be able to move in for at least another week because the kitchen was scheduled to be installed in the apartment on July 7th. However, we got great news that it had been installed Monday. We assumed it wouldn't be completed in one day though, but thankfully we were wrong. The kitchen was completely installed and finished when we arrived Monday afternoon. It turned out great too! In fact it turned out much better than we expected. The cabinets are all white with thick stainless handles and the drawers have those lovely dampers on them so I can't slam them. lol The counter tops are laminate that look like butcher block, the fridge is built in so it matches the cabinets, the stove and dish washer are also stainless. Today we got all of kitchen stuff unpacked and set up. We will of course take pictures soon. We will not be able to post them until July 7th though because that is when our cable, telephone and Internet will be installed. So unfortunately none of you Americans or Canucks will be hearing from us until then.

As many of you may or may not know, Marshall and I were having a bit of a difficult time finding white long grain rice, BBQ sauce and soy sauce here. Just when we were about to give up all hope and go crying to our mommies to send us some, Thomas Reiss came to our rescue! He took Marshall out today and showed him where we could find these things. So thanks again Thomas. We owe you one! lol

Well that's all until July 7th. So check back then or be lazy and wait until I send you the update e-mail. The decision is yours. Take care everyone!

  1. So I guess rice and barbecue will be on your menu this evening. Who would have known that rice is not a menu favorite all over the world. Thanks Thomas from Lindseys mom.
    Take Care
