Shipment #1

I finally have some of my stuff!

The operative word here is “some”. The first of my many shipments to arrive wasn’t the one that was supposed to arrive first (because that would make too much sense), but it was the one that was supposed to arrive second. So my methodical plan for packing things in the order in which I wished to receive them was really a complete waste of time.

The customs situation is interesting to say least – apparently all of my shipments are at the port, hanging out, waiting to be cleared through customs. And no one can predict when it will happen. So I guess I should be grateful that I have “some” stuff. And, the “some” that I received included my bedding, so no more welcome kit/motel-style comforter (which can’t really qualify as “comfort”ers, since “comfort” did not seem to be a consideration when manufacturing them). At any rate, I’m taking tiny steps toward making my apartment feel more like home. Hopefully more will materialize soon.

My bed!
