Long to Short

I finally got my hair cut today. It's been almost a year since my last haircut and my hair was halfway down my back, now it is at my shoulders and it feels like I lost three pounds (if only that were true!) It's so nice to not have to deal with all of this hair in this heat. Ironically enough, I think it's been hotter in New York than it has been here in South Florida (NY -0; FLA- 1) this summer.

Monkey has a new little trick I taught him yesterday, I say that I have to tell him a secret and he comes really close and puts his hand around my head to pull me close to his ear so I can tell him the secret. Having a two year old has been so much fun and so much work. He is so adorable and is learning so many things by the minute. He is also extremely strong willed and he loves to get into everything he can. I love that little boy.

The winds are blowing....

Hurricane Dean took out half the Caribbean and is currently barreling it's way through Mexico and I am definitely starting to worry. We moved to South Florida about 10 months ago and this is our first hurricane season here. I am starting to worry that we are definitely not prepared should a hurricane come our way. Somehow, I'm starting to think a can of tuna and a flashlight are not enough to keep us in good shape should we lose power or worse. I mean, I don't think my husband would be tastier than a can of Spam... I guess it's time to stop living in denial and realize that we've traded stinky, lovely New York for Hot, Tropical, Hurricane-y Florida.

From Brooklyn to FLA

Leaving New York to live in a sunnier, warmer climate isn't all it's cracked up to be. I want this blog to be a chronicle of my transition from NY to being a SAHM living in Florida.
