‘Hopefully, Not for a long long time!’ That will be my answer if anyone asks me if i would like to move again. It was a really tiring experience.

We were fortunate that my mother in law was here to help us. Neither Nicke and I have set up a home in Sweden before and it is definitely very different from Singapore.

Everything went pretty well except that we cannot move our double bed upstairs. It is either tearing down the stairs or sawing our double bed into 2. We had no choice but to get rid of the bed. I was told that Swedes usually buy 2 single beds and put it together as they will not be able to carry a double bed upstairs. It’s not so simple as the mattress sizes are very different from Singapore. Even pillow sizes too,

Prior to this move to Sweden, I have never been to Ikea. and I have been there thrice in the past three weeks! I don’t think i can apply for a job in Ikea. I can barely put a table together!

Well, at least the kids are happy. They really enjoy going up and down the stairs and watching the fireplace. I think they are happy to see their toys and bed finally. I, however, am not too thrilled about picking up the apples that keeps falling from the apple tree. We don’t have a blender and too many apple pies can make you very fat!!! I am considering putting a sign that says ‘Feel free to help yourself to the apples’.

To Nicke’s dismay, we have some technical trouble. Our internet is not working very well and our home laptop broke down. I haven’t been able to respond to emails and check facebook regularly.

On top of the hectic move, I have started my swedish classes!

Hur mor du?
