March 24, 2015. Ridgeland, MS. Progress.

The truck is full and will stay full until we move into our new house. Ken and I visited a consignment shop this morning, told to us by our good agent Susan Mimms. Our plan is to take all our furniture from the condo to the new house. Even though it won't look good, it will work for us until we find something better, except for our bedroom. Ken reads in the middle of the night and needs a good chair. Also the small sitting room off our bedroom is where we will put the TV so we need something to sit while we watch. And we need book cases for the office downstairs. Success. We were able to buy two comfortable chairs for the small sitting room and one smaller chair for beside the bed. And one book case too. It is small but will work. We can't remember how many books we put into storage anyway, but this small bookcase will give us a start. The best part was that Christina and the girls came to meet us for lunch to a Thai restaurant just around the corner. It was fun and festive and a big surprise to everyone as we called them at the last minute. We celebrated our purchase of three chairs plus one small bookcase. Definitely progress.
