so that's it, we're officially moved. and i have to say, i'm surprised at how little time it took us to adjust, unpack and settle. there's still the {ongoing} issue of organizing my clothes, but hey, small closets will do that to ya. the new place is so quiet {slept through the night all weekend, no sirens!!} and everything fit perfectly with room to spare. it feels very open and airy to us, but to everyone else it still looks like a tiny apartment in nyc. oh well, i can live with that. there is plenty of room to play some mad wii though and we're just a block away from the promenade {a walkway with stellar views of lower manhattan}.
so all visitors are welcome! we still have the futon but now there's actually room to use it!
oh and we managed to pick up the motorcycle from jersey on saturday and spend most of the day driving around. it's so exciting to have it parked right outside our door, so once we get some saddlebags, we might even be using it for grocery runs! and there's talk {quiet low rumors and fantasies} of me getting my very own vespa {powder blue please}. how fun would that be? for now i'm content to be a passenger on the benjamin button bike, but i like that i've planted the vespa seed in my husband's brain.
oh, and we both got up this morning and worked out together. the husband made some breakfast and i got ready for work. it could get better than this, but i'm not sure how...
did i miss anything??
My dream Vespa was always the mint green one...but I'm glad I had the chance to have a scooter (a silver Peugeot) in England. Oh, how I miss my little scoot-a-boot. I hope you get a Vespa, or any brand, really. Scooters are FUN FUN FUN!! I keep thinking "I wish we lived somewhere I could have a scooter again..." but then I remember that we DO live in a scooter-friendly place, it's just the wee baby that isn't very scooter-friendly! I can't quite figure out how to safely affix her carseat to the back of the scooter...hmmm...
ReplyDeleteGlad you kids are all settled in your spacious digs!
