Just like a Saturday morning tradition, I went to a yard sale this morning. There are constantly expatriots coming and going from Qatar. We have heard that there are 1000 new people moving to Doha every week. Fewer numbers are leaving but there is still movement.
Today I visited a family that is leaving in November to return to Canada. They have just started to pack and are clearing items from the house that they do not wish to move. I was able to purchase a number of household items: measuring spoons, tools, placemats, picture frames, clothes drying rack, clothes hangers. But by far the most exciting purchase was a large rug for our living room. This is not a silk Persian rug but it will work in our living room (which has blue drapery and fabric) until we decide on something with a local flavour.
