I know I have been totally ignoring the blog – since finding out we have the apartment in Brooklyn we have been busy getting things together to make it a home.
From furniture, to a new bed, housewares, kitchen table set, removals and starting to pack it has been a whirlwind. Mainly because with being in a studio, to pack means you actually end up living in a room full of boxes and stuff.. it is horrendous and a big test of my sanity. We’ll be there in two and a bit weeks with the main moving date happening on my birthday! What a birthday present – a beautiful new apartment!
To make things worse, I have given up pasta for Lent. So I am really taking on a Lenten challenge this year by living in total disorder and challenging myself to try and not freak out about not having things in order (something I am totally OCD about) while also giving up the food that I love the most.
I’ll try and do some catch up posts when I can but at the moment dear patient and understanding Bill is bearing the brunt of my “I cannot stand all this stuff here!” whining sessions every night. Isn’t he a lucky duck?! 😉
