It's Christmas...in October

You don't realize how much stuff you have until you move. Then, you don't realize how much stuff you rely on until you don't have it for an extended period of time. We sent our shipment to Qatar back in the third week of July, hoping we would only be here a couple of weeks without it. Now, having been here over two months, you become grateful for a lot of small things.

We should be receiving our shipment in 2 hours and 9 minutes, not that I am counting. Leoni will get to sleep in her crib tonight, and I can't wait to cook in something other than one tiny pot or a frying pan. Yes, I have cooked spaghetti in a frying pan.

This is me with our cart of luggage the day we left.


You would think with this much stuff, that we had everything we possibly needed.

Here are the boxes...it honestly looks like less now that it is here. I had already started opening a couple of boxes when I took this.
