IKEA

Weekend at Ikea-
First off I should report that something wonderful happened on Friday. Ok, not earth shuttering but made my day. I found a TV for 50 Euro and Scott picked up and brought to our house. Now it is not a flat screen, but an older second hand one, that is perfect for our needs. Fingers crossed it works. The cable man comes on Thursday, so we wait until then. Well by Shabbos, Scott and I were all back to normal, health wise. He was the 10th man in shul on shabbos, so really good that he felt better. Was a nice weekend. Went to shul and spent time with the friends we have made and then came home and just relaxed. Sunday was a big day as we went to IKEA. You heard that right; IKEA is all over the world and there is one 15 minutes from us. It is exactly like the IKEA at home and it was great because everything is in English. Since there is a different electricity current here, we couldn’t bring any appliances or electronics with us. So our mission in IKEA was lamps, but of course when we were there we found many other items, 2 chairs, some cooking pots and other odds and ends. Then we headed to the local Home Dept, called Gamma. It is exactly like Home Depot, so Scott is a happy man and it is very close to our house. We bought some more essentials we needed for the house. Then we made a run to the house with some of our stuff and now await the move this week. So exciting!!!
