Again – time is flying by…. I promise to get more written in the next few days, I don’t know if I’ve sorted out my picture issue (loading pictures to this blog these days seems to be a bear)… but I did want to write quickly to say that I’ve not gone totally MIA – [...]

Whoa. I’m amazed at how fast time flies by – I’ve been meaning to write more – but everytime I get all ready to do a data-dump and upload some pictures, the silly system won’t upload the picture, I get frustrated and ultimately end up closing the window. Anyway… I’m just going to skip a [...]

So – we’re all moved in!!! It was a LONG LONG LONG weekend, but we’re all in and situated – I have never been more relieved. Friday night was Samson and I flying up to Providence - unfortunately we learned pretty late in the game that Amtrak wouldn’t allow dogs … so our only choice [...]

Oh dear. I guess I should’ve seen this coming… the cupcake man knew I was leaving, my office colleagues have continuously called me the cupcake lady – and BAM – today, it’s massive cupcake time. My favorite cupcake from Buttercup is the Lady Baltimore… so – as a going away present – I got it [...]

Hmmm… so in lieu of Patrick Swayze’s death, I’ve been a bit nostalgic today. It’s interesting how your mind gets going with incidents like death and my thoughts went right back to the old-days of a younger Me. I think I mentioned that I grew up in a small-town in Upstate NY – [...]

Oooo…. A Monday morning find! So, I went to the gym this morning – (I’ve been eating rather poorly given the stress of packing, moving, etc)… and this morning was one of the rare mornings that I had to schlep my way into our Bryant Park office. The last Monday morning I’ll ever have to [...]

Yep – this pretty much sums up my life these days. I’m packing. EVERYTHING. It’s kind of amusing since normally, I’d go to work and feel relieved to be “productive” at the office, but that’s not the case this time around - because I have to pack up my office stuff too. UGH. I hate [...]

Oh dear. It’s been another one of those amazing “only-in-New-York-City” days – making my way home from what was probably the most un-exciting day at the office…. (I didn’t have a single meeting and basically just caught up on developing process documents, ad-strategy recommendations, employer brand best-pracices, etc.).
Anyway – onto my bizarre encounter. .. It [...]

Ok – so clearly, I have a lot going on. Having accepted the position in Rhode Island and planning our escape from NYC… (No worries, I’ll continue to be the witty city girl of Providence)! BUT… this past weekend, I think my hubby and I both realized what we’re going to miss the most with [...]

Hello RI. Goodbye NYC.
So our decision is made!!!
We’re moving to Rhode Island.
I’m excited, nervous, thrilled & anxious all at the same time.
It’s still a bit surreal in thinking that I’m not going to be a city-cat anymore – but getting closer to the water & a lifestyle more like where hubby and I came from. [...]
