D-Day aka Delivery Day
Have you ever seen anything more beautiful?
Our furniture has arrived
We arrived here on July 4th from America (ha-ha) and it is now September 12th; our furniture just arrived via freighter.A friend that moved to Europe last year recently visited and told me her furniture was delayed also. Our furniture was due to port on August 11th. So yeah, almost a month late. Not to mention the fact that it had to clear customs.
It's just stuff
That's what I kept telling myself. I don't need it. But actually, your belongings are more than just "stuff" they are a part of your history, your story.Okay, maybe not all your stuff is important. But there are items that I missed dearly over the months. And no, it wasn't my bed or my dishware. It was the small things:
- Yoga Pants - yes, I missed my comfortable, stretchy lulu's. Never shall I make that mistake again!
- Jewelry Box - I traveled with most of my jewelry but did not bring the organizer with me. This actually led me to have a little anxiety as my earrings, necklaces etc. all were mixed together and not in their proper place. Next time, I will buy one of those roll-up things for storage
- Art - I love art and having it hung up around my home makes me feel at home
- Socks - my long wooly socks that I wore around the house. The socks I brought with me were mostly athletic socks and did not provide the same snuggle comfort
- Wine Glasses - the reason is obvious
- Couch - nothing makes you feel more at home than spreading out on your own sofa
- Leather Jacket - I don't wear it that often so I did not bother taking it. But for some reason, it symbolized San Francisco to me. Fake leather btw, strictly veg here!
- Boots - summer quickly became fall here and I fantasized about sliding my faux-leather leg lovelies
