Sorry to hear your move didn't go as smoothly as you planned, but you and your dog are here, and soon enough, everything else will arrive.

Anyway, welcome to New York! You've arrived at a lovely time of the year, and I am sure both you and your adorable dog will enjoy the city.

And like another poster said, we'd love to see some photos of your new digs once your furniture has arrived and you've set everything up!

Alejandro, I love your apartment. You have made it so cheerful. It seems like a great place to come home to every day. Thanks for sharing the photos!

Do you rent or own your apartment? When I was renting a studio apartment a few years back in Manhattan, there was a gentleman who lived below me who started complaining that he could hear me walking. The building was old, and the wood floors were creaky. So I invested in a thick, nearly wall-to-wall carpet with a pad underneath. That wasn't enough for him. He still kept complaining, constantly leaving me notes. I finally wrote a letter to my landlord and asked him to inform the tenant I had done all that I could and that it wasn't my fault we lived in an old building with creaky floors. I also asked the landlord to please tell this man to stop contacting me because his behavior had become abusive. My letter to the landlord worked because I never heard a peep out of the guy again. If you own your apartment, is there a co-op board you could contact? At this point, you need to stop communicating with this woman.

Isn't beekeeping illegal in New York City? Not that I'm against bees, but I believe it is.

I love the clean simplicity of this home. Can you tell me what paint color you used? I am looking for a creamy beige tone for my apartment, and I really like this.
