The great news is that we received most of our shipments. (We are still awaiting our food and wine shipment!) The flip side of that is that we have a small apartment, very limited storage space. So the fun of unpacking and finding a place for everything began. As we were unpacking the thought that we still have 8,000 pounds of stuff still in storage is unbelievable to me. It sure seemed like we had packed an awful lot of stuff. We were thankful that nothing too major was broken or opened and we only had some small things that we know were not supposed to end up in Russia. One of the oddest things that arrived was the glass shelves to my china cabinet- they were carefully packed with my china. Why the movers packed the shelves for Russia when I didn't bring the china cabinet escapes me but at least they are not broken.
After a fewdays of hard work the boxes started to disappear and things began to find there place. Josh of course packed way too many clothes and our closets are over flowing :) (Sadly we still have more clothes in our next shipment too.)
Josh has begun the set up of his new "man room" that doubles as our guest room.
And finally we have found a place for our dishes, pots and pans. We were so happy to receive our things however it was much easier to keep things clean when we only had one towel and two mugs.
