Our curtains (almost all sheers) arrived and were installed yesterday. They look really nice and lighten the house ... I love them.  BUT, the company has made us put up so much security/perimeter lighting around the outside of the house .... night time looks almost like day time.  Hmmm, its going to take a while for my body to adapt to sleeping in the "half light" ....

Got some news on the shipment ... it should land in Jakarta next week, maybe the 15th.  The company thinks they can deliver the items by 23/24 Nov (almost exactly my guess [1-Dec] back in June.  Of course, we shall see if they truly can clear customs in 1 week.  It takes 6-10 weeks in Angola !!!
