We went to Ikea last night after work. It is an amazing store with amazingly cheap, but quite serviceable furniture. We bought two tables that came with eight chairs to use for dining and homeschool work, a computer desk, and a cot each for Kelly and Christian. We really need to buy a sofa or futon for the living room, a clothes washer and dryer, and a couple of lamps, but we have enough things now to survive until the house sells. I was not smart enough to bring any tools with me when I came from Oregon, so I had to assemble all of the stuff by hand with the little tools provided in the furniture kit which created quite a blister on my thumb. Maybe I will remember such things, next time we move.

Tonight, I hope to get the homeschool books all moved into the house and the linux computer set up so that we can get started back into homeschool. Hopefully, my friend Jimmy Bryan and his family will come to visit us on Saturday and we can talk about homeschool and life. It will be great for Kelly and Christian to meet their kids, too.
