My Ideal Day

My ideal day is a summary of what I am hoping my life will be within the next few months when I move into Manhattan. It will go something like this:


I wake up at 730am at my Upper West Side apartment with my cat Ziggy laying on my chest looking up at me for food. I feed her, eat some sort of cereal for breakfast in my stainless steel applianced kitchen with a great 30something floor view. After breakfast I quickly get dressed in my gym clothes to do my morning workout at the gym in my building.



After an hour at the gym I head back to my apartment to shower and get dressed for work. I then head out on the subway to my office in the west village/soho area where I rent desk space for my one person event planning company, Polka Dot Events. The office is a bright white loft space that I share with other small creative companies... we each have our own desks and spaces and share the conference room. When I arrive at the office around 9:30 am I say hi to all my office mates and sit down at my desk where I take the first hour of the day to go through my voice mails and answer E-mails from the night before on my beautiful iMac.



The rest of my day is spent researching new wedding sites for my clients, speaking with clients through E-mail and phone, having consultations at the office with clients, and visiting venue sights or other vendors like photographers, invitation designers, etc. to meet for an upcoming event we are collaborating on. Some time of the day is also spent designing an event space on my Viven Software for an upcoming event. Sometime in the middle of this I take a break to go get a nice sandwich for lunch. My day ends around 630-7 as I hop on the subway back to my apartment.



On my arrival back to the building I give a wave to the doorman and get greeted at my apartment door by Ziggy who wants food...again. I feed her lay down for a few minutes and start dinner. I eat dinner with my boyfriend Tom and change into comfy clothes. The rest of the night is spent watching TV and eating yummy snacks until I fall asleep around 11pm and begin my day all over again the next morning.
