Our Apartment

Image
Happy Friday!! We are still living in our apartment while we renovate our new house.  We've lived in our apartment for about 5 years now and it's been a great place to live.  People that don't live in NYC are always talking about how apartments here are so expensive and small.  It's true that you don't have the space in the city that you would if you lived in the suburbs, but there are so many great things about living here- easy commute to Manhattan for work- subways run 24/7 and they come pretty frequently; tons of amazing nightlife-bars and clubs; access to some of the best restaurants in the WORLD; great delivery services- you can get food, dry cleaning and laundry, groceries, prescriptions and many, many more things delivered right to your door; cultural activities; outstanding shopping; beautiful Central and Prospect Parks; crossing paths with people from every country around the globe.  This list could go on and on. You can tell I'm going to miss livi...

It's Official

It’s official. We are really moving to the burbs. In the back of my head I thought maybe the deal would fall through and we would have more time in the city. Everything went relatively smoothly (minus the MOUNTAIN of paperwork we had to submit to get our mortgage) and our days of living in Brooklyn are numbered.

Moving on Out

I know. I know. Another blog. What makes this blog different than all the others out there? What makes me different than you? ... a lot of things... So, sit back. Relax. Enjoy my musings and my rants in this chronicle about life in general and our move out of the big city to the burbs. picture from nsnn.com
