New Job Location, New Apartment, New York, Wait...New Jersey

Steve now works on Water Street in NYC. Working in NYC is a dream come true for Steve.

We moved to New Jersey on the 18th of December. We were here a few days before we left to go and visit Steve's family for Christmas.

We have had many new adventures. We have had many guests, mostly uninvited, you know the roach rodent type. We are very grateful that they have an exterminator come every Wednesday. Have you ever opened a cupboard door above your head to have a roach fall right in front of your face?! Eww! I'm not talking about a monster roach--a live monster roach. I'm even more grateful that men were meant to handle these situations. The hallway is heated, so Chase and I spent some quality time reading books in the hallway for the next...45 minutes.

We also had an uninvited human guest, but you don't want to hear about that.

We did have a hometeacher come. He asked if he could stop by to do his hometeaching and bring ribs. Of course! He came over for a couple of hours and we learned about his family living in Saint Kitt. He came from a land of paradise. New Haircut New Apartment. Queen Latifah used to live at Dixon Mills. Rumor has it that she lived in a unit almost identical to ours. If we took all of out furniture out we could play basketball in the room. New Adventures. We went to FAO Schwarz in Manhattan. They had the huge piano from Big. They said that right after the movie came out the piano was selling for $15,000 and now it is selling for $250,000. Steve wishes he could buy this Star Wars Lego Set. New...for someone else, Barbie Foosball Table. Can you see the price? It's only $24,999, because $24,999 is so much better than $25,000. It's still a cool idea.

  8. Sweet! It does sound like fun, except the roaches part. On my mission I slept over at one of the other sister apartments and I had to have a mattress on the floor. Well, they had lots of roaches there and I wasn't so excited about having to sleep so close to where they roam. I don't remember one crawling on me though, thank goodness.
