Introduction - new to The Nest

Just wanted to make a quick introduction - I'm new on here...

BF and I live in Florida, NY.. we have just started making plans to update his house. Chances are we'll end up selling and move to Rockland.. but in the meantime, it is our home so we're making it more 'ours'. Over the past few months, we have done SOME painting to cover up the (dark!) colors his ex-wife chose throughout the house. We have someone coming in a couple of weeks to re-do the kitchen cabinets, and counter-tops... I'm trying to figure out ways to maximize the space in the kitchen... 

My BF has 7 year old triplets :-) from his previous marriage. We plan on being married within the next year, and adding on to our family :-) I recently had a miscarriage from my first pregnancy.. so I made the move from thebump.com to thenest.com for the time being to focus on other things :-)

I just wanted to introduce myself. We're mainly up in Orange County... but I work Rockland, he works in NYC.

  • So nice to 'meet' all of you. I'm glad I joined this board!!

    Looking forward to getting to know everyone Smile

    I hope you all enjoy a nice relaxing Sunday... However, for me,  it seems as though a little mouse wanted to get in from being out in the cold! Ack! We have a mouse in our house...! I know it's completely normal in the cold weather, and in an older house... But still... I'm not a big fan Big Smile

    HAPPY SUNDAY!
