I will have to think of new titles, but for now my brain is busy with other stuff. Yesterday I sold our dining room table and chairs (for those of you who know my dining room table fetish, understand this was a difficult thing to do), painting easel, kitchen clock, chest of drawers (now the TV is on a coffee table, unless I sell that soon too), our computer and screen, Mila's bike (unknown to her), my overlocker/serger, quilting table and almost sold the car. I still have to sell the TV, DVD player, stereo, iPod dock, breadmaker, Ikea Poang chair and lots of other blah blah blah junk collected over the past 5 years.
To make me happy, I am going to New York tomorrow with Iris, Karen, Maria and Sarah. I will definitely visit PurlSoho (fabric store), Arcadia (gift store on 8th), probably Anthropologie (not much of a surprise) and various other stops along the way. Dinner will be at Babbo (Mario Batelli's restaurant) where we will have to return the silver fork that fell into my bag last time we were there. Hope it doesn't snow.

First Entry
Hi
This is my first entry on my new blog. Hopefully I will be a bit more organised this time, and write fairly often so you can all keep up with our adventures.
We will have been in the USA for 5 years, 5 months and change when we move from Princeton to Seoul, South Korea in February.
John is very excited, I am not sure, and the girls want to take our toilet with us! I think my uncertainty is a combination of not knowing what is there for us, not knowing what to take, not knowing what to leave behind, donate, give away etc. I guess NOT KNOWING would sum it up.
Currently, I am loading things onto the give-away table in the laundry room, inviting people over to take what they want, selling stuff on craigslist.com, and generally making a huge mess. This is a different huge mess from the usual one we live in.
I would like to set myself a goal of not living in a mess anymore, but am a bit scared to make such a goal as I know that living up to it would be next to impossible.
So, lots to do, lots to think about, and please, lots to pray about.
