I was hoping to end my mini-travel blog with a picture of me at the beach today and make comments about how cool my life is; one day in Central Park, the next at the Beach, but I didn’t get out of the house today. My life still is pretty cool. I mean I “could” have gone to the beach today, I just chose not to.
My last day in the big city was quiet for being in New York City. I slept in, got a cup of coffee and sat across the street from the hotel at one of the entrances to Central Park (6th Avenue) and just watched people and horse carriages until the restaurant opened where I wanted to eat. There are these “hustlers” – young guys, maybe Latino but could be Italian or Greek or Iranian, I have no idea, but they can get kind of obnoxious pushing the carriage rides, or bikes or whatever it is they were pushing. As I was walking across the street to get to my park bench one of these very obnoxious but handsome young man was checking me out – with like a smile in a good way, didn’t even try to sell me something! I mean like, seriously? Well,,,, I’ve never been so happy in my entire life.
Here are my parting pics:
So that’s it – back to the grind tomorrow.
37 days to moving day. it’s coming right up! A lot can happen in 37 days. Stay tuned.
xoxoxoxo
Glad you got to have lunch there! Yes counting down. We cannot count down yet. Very quiet Sat and Sun, unfortunately. Was hoping to show the house, since I got up early to clean it and de-clutter the already totally de-cluttered place I used to know was ours. Now it’s kind of in limbo – I can’t make a mess and I want it to smell good. So no bacon, no broccoli, no boiled eggs, no cauliflower or brussell sprouts. Send us some good ju-ju, sister in law! xoxo
And welcome home!
I’m on it.. good juju coming your way

Weaver! I didn’t know you were a follower. Thanks for your comments. I did love my 40’s so maybe I’ll love my 60’s too. I’m hopeful!
