Wanted to share a quick walk through of our new home. It's not the best video (because of the light coming in the windows), but it'll suffice for now. I didn't show the washer and dryer in the hall closet, but if you look close enough as I come down the hall, you can see the door to it and maybe even hear it running. Also, the last room I showed was the bedroom and it's a bit of a wreck! We still have major work to do on it... need a box spring so we can get the mattress off the floor and into the new bed frame, have 6 boxes of school stuff and files that will return to the classroom in the fall, but for now are taking up a corner of the room, in desperate need of a dresser or something to help store the clothing (because we now are closet-less). But the bedroom is for sleeping and it has a great view of the living room and windows to the outside through the french doors, so I'm okay with it as it is for now.
Here is a list of the things I love about our new home... (because, as my husband says, I have too many favorites and I can't choose only one!):
- my kitchen table and the view of green outside it
- my desk location, again with a view to the green backside of the building
- the fire escape of plants (some are just visiting for the month of July)
- the vast amount of space in the living room (we are no longer all sitting on top of each other in here)
- the closet that holds a piece of Heaven (a.k.a. washer and dryer)
- the birds are hanging again (you can kind of see them in the kitchen window)
- the shelves are also hanging once again (my amazing husband put them up... despite how nervous I was about them being as perfect as my father-in-law made them in our old apartment... Seth has a bit more practicing before he gets his father's talents, but I think he's on his way!)
1. What side of the hall is the washer and dryer closet on?
2. What chore do I have to do in the kitchen (only gave a quick glimpse)?
3. Can anyone make out what is sitting on the kitchen table (part of my birthday present from my husband... something I've been asking for for over a year because my grandmother has these too)?
4. What do you notice about the books on the shelf?
5. Can anyone name the singer of the lovely music playing from my computer?
Happy Friday! Seth and I are off to pick up some good friends of ours from the airport this evening!

Your new apartment is great. I love your quaint kitchen. I think your washer and dryer is on the left. I could only make out two flower pots on the kitchen table because of the lighting. I know there's more on the table. And the song playing sounded nice but have no idea who it is. My husband is the music god in our house. Hope all is well. Have a great day.
You captured some nice shots in the post below. Sometimes vintage things catch my eye too.
No idea on any of these! BUT...I love your new place! (What is it about French Doors?! I love them!!)
Am in love with the kitchen table + light more than anything else.
Alexi Murdoch?! If not, it ought to be! ;-)
great place, but sheesh, I suck at the game....love that you have green and plants and grass outside your window !
and the french doors....fabulous!!
Congratulations on your new apartment - it looks great.
i am clapping for the two of you! the windows and the garden and the floors...thanks for the exciting "walk through"
yay! it's great!!
looks like the kind of place i would love! especially those french doors! so cool.
Thanks for visiting today. I'm sorry I didn't take time to watch your video but I'm very intrigued about life in NYC. We lived in NJ once upon a time and would visit NYC from time to time. I'm coming back because your life looks different and interesting from mine and I find that refreshing.
Yayyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!
