A Place Like Home?

We’ve said it before but I really think THIS TIME, we’ve found a place we’ll be staying in for a while. Stopped in on Saturday to take measurements and they were almost finished with everything. The master bedroom and living room are bigger than we’ve ever had, plus the separate dining room is a nice

I love New York. Now, more than ever. Really. It’s more than just some marketing slogan for me. The good, bad and ugly; I can’t imagine living anywhere else. Went for a walk at lunch today, up Water Street to the South Street Seaport, walked the pier, then went across on Fulton Street to Nassau

Been busy actually working today, forgot how much time I’d been wasting on personal stuff the past few weeks!

Apartment update: Talked to the super this afternoon and he says the owner was happy with our application and that they’ll be meeting tomorrow to discuss it. He thinks the apartment is ours. Judging from the fact that it’s been empty for five months (!) and there’s not a single latino name on the doorbell

It’s official. I’ve stepped down from the louderARTS Project and from running a little bit louder. Writing the email was one of the toughest things I’ve done in a while, not for any second-guessing but for getting it right. No bitterness, no anger, no potshots. No need for any of that.
