We did it - we've committed ourselves to a huge debt and now have in our posession a beautiful 60 year old house key and I couldn't feel better about it. We are back at the apartment (no longer appropriate to call it 'Home' right?) and are hanging out preparing to pack up everything tomorrow and spend the night in the new place. We'll be back here on Monday morning to meet the movers. I'm honestly a little bit bummed - I was planning on painting the door a blue color - I call it Scotish flag blue but you can call it English pub blue, and the house literally across the street that is being remodeled, just painted their door that exact color. I think it would be a bit much for two homes to have blue doors in a part of the country where all of the other doors are red. Not only that but it wouldn't be neighborly. I figure, it makes it easy for him to say "1/2 way down the street, it is the house with a blue door". So, now I'm thinking "Kelli" green.

About Me
- Name: Kelli
- Location: Ridgefield, Connecticut, United States
Issaquah, Washington born and bred. It took two trips to New York and my heart broke when I had to return to Seattle after a vacation. Moved to NYC in September 2000. On September 11th, 2001, I became a New Yorker. Spent 2002-2004 in Chicago (regrouping) and met the best people and went to the best bars and saw amazing architecture but my heart pulled my husband and me back to the NY area. We now live in Ridgefield, Connecticut (45 min on the express train to Grand Central) where we can play tennis, enjoy the amazing beauty of this area and still be close to our love, NYC. No kids other than Betty the bulldog. We just bought our first home close to town where we can have a full-on organic garden (dream job: Union Square Farmers Market). We LOVE good food, good beer and sharing both with friends on a warm summer evening.
