So, it's been too long.  And rather than catching up with huge amounts, I will mostly pretend that the gap didn't happen, so it's not likely to happen again.

Our shipment was delivered on Thursday.  We spent the weekend unpacking; it feels a lot more like home and we just need to hang the paintings, get some bookshelves made, and find places for a few last things.  Almost everything survived intact; the glass on our coffee table shattered and then the new bed slats survived the trip but broke when Jens was testing them out in the new bed.

I'm having a birthday bash on Friday which looks to be fun.  We're stocking up and getting ready to go.  We have curtains in our bedroom!  They don't match the (pink) walls, as they are blue and cream, but we're happier with the curtains than with the walls.  Maybe some day we'll paint the walls.

I wanted to hang some art tonight, but we discovered that every wall is built of cement.  We'll have to get some kind of special nails and hooks to hold our stuff on the walls, and I don't know if that will happen before Friday.  Still, the furniture and rugs being here makes it look great.

It's started to rain every 3-4 days; rainy season is upon us!
