Slow Boat to China

We can't seem to get good information on when to expect our container. Looks like it may be 1st week of July before we have everything. It's getting old living on our scant selection of rental furniture including the rock hard bed. The whole place echos since the floors are marble and walls concrete. We have found a couple nice places for new furniture but we are waiting for everything else to arrive so we can figure where everything should go.

The worst thing about it is Madeleine's room. The poor girl is sleeping on a twin mattress that is on the floor and the only thing else she has is a night table and lamp. She doesn't mind going to sleep but she wakes up way too early and won't stay in her room. Hopefully once she gets her things she will be more comfortable and won't mind staying in her room in the morning like she did at home.

Thanks God for Ikea. There are two in Singapore and it's become a great source for dishes, rugs, plants, and other things we normally wouldn't buy from Ikea in Houston. Headed there today for storage shelves so we are ready to unload boxes when they arrive.
