loft update

hey friends! i know it's been a few days since i last updated my blog, but there is only so much you can do before you get your internet hooked up :)

i am LOVING our new loft and life in the south end!  it's slowly coming together [emphasis on the slowly part of that phrase].  the first thing i did was unpack the kitchen, but it wasn't until today that i finally made it to the market to fill our cabinets with food.  side note: hooray, we finally live in trader joe's territory! hellooooooo boxes of red wine!

yesterday i tacked my closet and vanity - and let me just say that consolidating from four closets to just one is not as easy as you'd think it is.  but we are making do so far, with some minor adjustments to come. 

one piece of decor up, looking into the living room

makeshift dining room right now

a few home comforts up in the bathroom

yikes. my closet so far - and that's organized.
more fun than unpacking, however, has been getting to know our new neighborhood.  over the weekend we discovered a great diner as well as estelle's, a sweet southern kithchen with a kick ass brunch menu.  that's just the tip of the iceberg - a list about a mile long of restaurants and bars to try out in our neighborhood has already been started.

i am also trying to adjust to my new routine, which consists of getting up and then finding things to keep myself busy all day.  with all the unpacking to do it hasn't been too hard yet - but i am worried i might end up like ross.


but the best news of all is that my mom has already booked her first trip out to visit, just a few days before my birthday!  i am so psyched and can't wait to show her a great time out here in my new home.

well i have lots to unpack... so hopefully i can share more progress later.

til next time!
