New Nest!

You may have noticed that my posts have been rather infrequent (non-existent?) lately. I haven't forgotten about you, Dear Readers, not at all; rather, Miles, the cats and I have packed up and moved to Brooklyn, NY, and it's taken quite a while to get adjusted and back to regular life. We're still not quite there, but we're probably as close as we're going to get for a while! I started my Master's program in Interior Design at Pratt this week (the reason we moved), so wish me luck on what I anticipate to be a very difficult but rewarding 3 years... Fingers crossed.

Our new nest is perhaps the polar opposite of our LA nest. We live in the basement apartment of a brownstone with a little excitable Italian landlord who doesn't speak English (I told him our sink wasn't draining and he told me I probably put too much paper down it. Most conversations don't go that well.). It's taking some adjustment not having some comforts like a dishwasher... or sunlight... but it's starting to come together. I'm determined not to let a NY apartment (or grad school) keep me from my nest-feathering pursuits, so keep tuned in for my next few posts... Thanks!

(here are some pictures from our trip to the Big Apple last fall... because let's be honest, who wants to read a blog without pictures???)
