Yes, indeed – we’re moving again. Over the last week or so, I have received several “House-Hunting” inquiries from loyal readers of ABCD Design. I thought I should bring all of you up to speed. Ever since Mr. D and I lost out on our dream country house, we’ve been grappling with what to do with ourselves.
We’ve got to be in or around New York City as soon as possible. His job hunt depends upon it. We both agreed on house #1, but we had differing opinions on house #2 (far away from town, close to the NYC train, but pricey) and #3 (way out in the boondocks with super low taxes -It’s a real “dude” kind of place) – Since we can not agree, we’ve got a Country House stalemate. WAH!
Something we can both definitely agree upon – Yipee!! We’ve applied to live in this sweetheart-sized studio apartment. It isn’t actually *that little* for NYC standards. It is just tiny compared to the apartment we moved out of in the Spring. This means we’ll keep the storage, but at least some of our belongings will come and live with us. For that, I could not be happier!
We were supposed to pack up leave for the City this weekend. The lease was written for a December 1st move in date. At 1pm Wednesday the apartment management office closed for Thanksgiving holiday. They are not scheduled reopen again until Monday the 30th. They still have not approved our application.
I told the agent we’re camping at his place if he is wrong! {winkwink} At this point we’ve delayed our drive until Tuesday morning. We have our movers on notice for the 3rd of December. Fingers crossed, I will be a New Yorker again by the end of next week!
Three different New York apartments and a four month Michigan/Knoxville sabbatical in 2009. Who’d have thunk that 2009 would have been like this?

Mr. D and I really don’t have much on the agenda this weekend. The weather is supposed to be absolutely fantastic the next few days, so I’m sure he will get out on his bike for a long ride. We also plan on heading to Washington Square Park to eat falafel – sometimes it is all I crave! And on Sunday, I’m thinking about making brunch – one of my all time f a v o r i t e “eggy” recipes: Kristen’s Good Breakfast Casserole.
