Moving from one island to another...we have finished language study and are headed to a new island. As of this post, our moving date is in 1 month and 5 days. Actually, I think it might be even less than that! Yikes! Time to start packing. What should we bring? According to friends who live in our new home, we should have bed sheets made. Why? I'm glad you asked! Apparently it is easy to find fitted bedsheets, but not flat sheets. Weird huh? I thought so. So I had matching sheet sets made. They are pretty and I like them. Here they are:
And here is where I got them:
OK, sheets bought. Check. What next? Well, apparently there isn't much more we need to bring with us, except just the stuff we own. 10 suitcases full of stuff that has been making their way out of the suitcases and into every nook and cranny of this house we have been living in for the past year. What happens when all your junk does that? Answer: it multiplies and fills up shelves and desks and tables with...more JUNK! I really should start by cleaning up my desk:
Scary I know.What if I disappear into all that junk and am never seen or heard from again? And how about this one, the boys' desk:
Maybe it doesn't look so bad, but it actually is pretty messy. I will be nice and NOT post a picture of Kris' desk. So, with all this packing to do and not much time to do it, what did I decide to do?
Well, enjoy the beautiful scenery, OBVIOUSLY! Who wouldn't want to sit on their sofa with a good book and a beautiful garden? I mean really, I should take advantage of this since I only have 1 month and 5 days left!!!
I so understand this! We moved here the weekend after FAMS, it was crazy! And I am pretty sure that everything we brought over to Indonesia multiplied while we were busy with language school. How does that happen? Praying for you all as you wrap up this chapter and move to the next, we are glad to have you!! :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Justine! Glad to hear someone else had the same idea we did! Hope it works for us too! LOL
ReplyDeleteI'm with you on the sitting back and enjoying the scenery! No time like the present! The packing WILL get done, might as well enjoy your garden while you have it! Hopefully you will have a garden in your new home to enjoy while you could be UNpacking!
