Life In The Big Apple

introduction

Today is the day we check out some buildings in the area
We've been here for two months. One of our closet friends email us, some properties in town. After dropping the girls off at their grandparents house. It has been a huge adjustment for all of us, since moving from San Francisco
We wanted something different. My parents have been super supportive of us, they helped Stephanie and I find schools for Francesca and Ariana to attend to. We decided that we wanted to start off fresh, so we donated all our furniture to the Good will. We purchased everything we needed for the new house, it's a nine bedroom house
Three bathroom. A large eat in kitchen, spacious backyard
We have a pretty decent size basement. The appliances were practically brand new, the place ran us 2.4 million dollars. Did I mention we have a dog named Sophie
She's been with since she was a puppy, we tend to keep to
Ourselves. The house has surveillance cameras all over the place, we have a few selective friends that live back home
Too of our good friends. Who live thirty minutes away from us, after dropping the girls off, we went to go check out the first building. Lena brought along her note book
Take notes, we have our contractor Maurice on standby
He's the one who drew up the blue prints for the bakery the only we need is the business license. Then the health inspector has to come out to make sure everything's up to code, l will be doing all the books for Tasty treats
That's the name we came up with, two days ago
Lena has all her ducks in a row. The bakery probably won't be open until spring, depending on how fast the workers works. Maurice has his own crew, we've seen pictures of his work, we have plenty of money for equipment. I've been calculating the numbers of how much everything's gonna cost us. We're looking at least five grand, Maurice is only charging us four grand
That's not including the permits. Lena has always been good at managing her money, we have funds in our business account. The last time I checked it was over a quarter million dollars, l handle all the house whole expenses. We have a joint account with both of our names on it, l make sure where good.
