Iām in New York City right now. Gosh itās been fun! I havenāt been here in TWENTY-TWO years. Itās changed a bit. And the people seem friendlier than I remember. The good olā New York humor is still the same, though.
Iāll have more about my trip soon.
Riding the subway waas SO MUCH fun!!!






Life is never dull, and exciting things just seem to always happen to me... why me... when I'm not running around the house fixing things, I'm a freelance writer for national media outlets like USAToday.com, Salon.com, and others. I've even been interviewed by TIME and The Wall Street Journal about blogging. Can you believe it?! Here is where I express my zany, creative, motherly side.

Wow! Have fun in NYC!
And I know how you feel about going alone to NYC, because my dad used to go there Monday through Friday every week for work. He did it for almost a full year, I believe. That was horendous. š
Anyways, have lots of fun!!!! š

My husband and I have been able to go there several times. Two of those times were with Elderhostel which was so much fun and so interesting. My husband is a map person and he loved navigating NYC with the Subways and Buses. In my next life I am going to live there. I would love the excitement and being able to get whatever you need without having to drive an automobile. Iām looking forward to hearing about your trip there.
