We moved here with five suitcases, one filled with coffee paraphernalia. Everything else was given away or sold. The decision to move then the actual move happened in just three weeks. Most of our stuff was getting old and it would not be worth it to hire movers. So out it went.

Thank Ingvar for Ikea.

Yes, I know. But when you leave everything you have 2,500 miles away and need temporary furniture (this is how I am justifying it), I am glad Ikea is hea. 750USD later we have a bed set, chairs, TV stand, new dishes, and other stuff. A TV for Presh and we are set.

I went shopping for a TV. OMFG!!! TVs have changed since I last bought one. Who pays 3,000USD for a TV?!?
