Its us again. SOOO the move-in went well, a lot faster than we expected. We left from CT around 8:30 Saturday morning, and after a few detours due to not being able to drive a U-Haul on the Hutchinson, we made it to 82^nd Street safely! It was about 90* out and super humid, thank goodness we brought that cooler of water and Gatorade!

Thanks to Jill’s brother Zack, Kelly’s parents, Jill’s Mom, and Kenny… we got all of our stuff (beds, couch, tables, dressers, clothes, Jill’s accessories and much MUCH more) up our 4^th floor walk up in about an hour and a half! We showed our families our new neighborhood and scarfed down some yummy sandwiches from the deli down the street, the only thing left was saying “goodbye”… MAN OH MAN was that hard L (we miss you all terribly)

Meanwhile… Back up on the 4^th floor…. We had HOURS of unpacking. WOW we have too much stuff. Some things were quite challenging, like building our beds and dressers. (ikea does not make those directions simple at all!) But at least this time we would have beds to sleep in, instead of on the floor. We worked from 2:00PM – 2:30AM stopping once for some very disappointing Chinese food. It started up again at 9AM on Sunday. Christian visited and took us out for a celebratory dinner at Doc Watsons YUM their burgers are to die for and their French fries UGH some of the best! Then Jill and I finished the decorating and setting up around 11:00PM. SO it was a long weekend BUT we are all unpacked and completely moved in… well except for the fact that our TV only plays DVD’s in black and white… hmmmm….

Monday brought on some gallivanting in Central Park… and any time we gallivant it is always an adventure! We saw some crazy things like, a girl hula hooping nonstop for an hour, kids out to recess, a private yoga lesson, and a Japanese Tourist taking a countless number of pictures of the private yoga lesson!!!!!! After chowing down our PB&J picnic lunch we made it past the baseball fields full of games where Jill assured Kelly “not to feel left out because we would be part of a team soon enough!”

That night we decided to treat our mangled hands and aching feet from moving in and took ourselves down to a nail place on 77^th to get Mani/Pedi’s for only $20!!!! We could get used to that! Tuesday brought some pretty exciting stuff as well! Kelly had an interview in the morning and scored a job by 6PM in the Art Department on Gossip Girl which starts Monday :) and Jill started her first day of work at the kickass salon. Today brings about some drizzly weather, Jill is back at the Salon for day 2 and Kelly did some laundry... just a typical day in the life of living :) ... ALL in ALL this adventure is off to a GREAT start!!!!
