Phase 2...Making my Next move, my Best move..

Hey guys...I've been back home for a cpl weeks now and I've felt the stress of being all off schedule. I mean from falling asleep at a decent hour lol to getting my affairs in order to trying to replenish my finances. Overall its good to be back, so now I'm moving on to the Next Phase of my Mission. Today My Companion kindly invites me to a Lovely Lunch at a Lovely Cafe to provide me with a full stomach and a nice place to continue on with planning my Migration.

The Fireplace has me feeling all warm and cozy lol...Now I'm Regrouped, Focused and Ready to go ahead, thinking of My Next Move.
Well for starters, she (my Companion) has asked around to other sisters in Egypt about prices in regards to Furniture and the basic necessities for daily living... Like a fridge, a stove, a hot water heater washing machine ,pots, pans and dishes etc; so Ill share with you the info I was Given. These are prices for Brand new Items.
1) Fridge starting $200 for a Med size
2) Stove $100
3) Hot Water Tank $100
4)Washing machine $150
She also mentioned the option of purchasing a "Gas Cooker" $15... in replace of the full Stove, a gas cooker is a stove with only 2 burners and does not have an oven.
5) Cute dishes as well as pots and pans are  inexpensive...She said to keep in mind that the price varies, depending on size and quality but if I'm looking for the bare minimum $$$ spent then these are pretty much the prices to expect.
So now I add it all up and make a note of additional costs like housing, which I'm leaning towards renting a Furnished flat opposed to an empty one having to completely furnish it. The ONLY reason why I may choose that route ( furnished ) is bcuz its only myself and 1 child, I mean not that a whole family cant do a furnished flat but the way I see it is me having only 1 gives me less chance of damage from the natural inclination of children is to run, jump and simply have fun but with only one it wont get too bad lol. The owners hold the Tenants responsible for damages just the same as here or more not only to the building but damage to the items inside as well and Allah knows best. I have so many things to arrange, housing of course, furniture possibly, not to mention am I staying with a sister for a little when I arrive in order to find something that fits my liking or am I arranging my housing from here?? so many questions but I'll get the answers the best I can and as quick as possible then post them Insha Allah...Another thing is communications, finding the best apps to have there and what type of cell phone should I take or shud I wait until I get there to purchase one??? I'll post the answers asap, as well as passport  issues, pricing and which Travel agencies are good to go with? Well Im done eating and its time to pick up the youngster lol so Ill talk to you guys soon Insha Allah...Thanks for reading...
