Stick Furniture

So now what? Many of our friends and family back in the States wonder what in the world we do now since we don't leave Japan for 3 weeks. Oh, did I tell you? Our tickets are booked and confirmed! We leave Japan on October 27th and arrive in MSP at 6:30 pm via Seattle! 

Our house only looked like this for about an hour.

And by this... I mean including the second bedroom that now looks like an episode of "Hoarders". That, a closet of clothes and a couple cabinets in the kitchen are all we have left with us until our Unaccompanied Baggage move (max 800 lbs) on Oct. 25.

The Navy's delivery company came shortly after the movers left to deliver our "stick furniture". It now looks like we live in a hotel, but it will work for 3 weeks. We're tossing all the carpet which is why it still remains in our apartment.

I also started repainting the house back to a whiti-ish color. Soon...it will be like we never lived here at all. At least that's what the Navy is hoping for. We rehung the mini-blinds, removed our curtains and pictures. The last steps are to repaint and then clean, clean, clean!
