My better half
…has arrived! Angela had a long (but fortunately direct) flight from Singapore to Christchurch and arrived Friday around noon. She had a lot of fun in Malaysia with her family, including BBQs and lots of shopping. Naturally she couldn’t wait to emmigrate to an altogether new country and go back to work!
As I thought might be the case, my expedient decorating needed a few tweaks here and there, and it was definitely time to hit the supermarket properly. It seems like that’s pretty much been the standing todo since I got here: go shopping every single day for common, miscellaneous items that you take for granted. Receiving our air shipment will be a big help, but that’s probably going to take at least another week. In the mean time, many thanks to everyone who has lent us dishes, utensils, pots, pans… and the list goes on.
