Our Stuff

We have survived a month in California without almost all of our stuff and have actually been using very little of our stuff, thanks to living with family, since we moved from Boston last fall.  The apartment we moved into here in IB is furnished so we have gotten by fine.  Although I am very excited that our stuff is here, I really kind of wish we didn't have so much STUFF!

 

 

Just to give a little history, when we moved from Boston to Idaho we loaded everything into a PODS shipping container.  This pod sat in a lot for a month or so in Boise while we decided what to do with ourselves.  Once it was decided that we would move in with Paul and Whitney for a while we unloaded everything into one side of their garage.  There it sat for 5 months.  Then when Adam started OCS and Alex and I moved to Inkom we loaded everything up in a Uhaul truck, drove it to Inkom and unloaded it in the loft at Randy and Paige's house.  When it came time to leave Inkom, the Navy moved our things for us.  Unfortunately we were on a waiting list so we had to leave for California before the movers came.  They had to repack a lot of things so that they could fully insure safety.  From Inkom our storage containers were moved to Boise, then transported to somewhere in the Midwest, (Nebraska I think) then they finally traveled to California where they were unloaded and reloaded somewhere in San Diego.  We left Inkom on June 10th and our stuff finally arrived in IB today, July 13!  It is amazing that the only things that have been broken along the way since Boston were the feet off of a box fan and one of the hooks on our vacuum.
