Thursday work was more of the same…meeting lots of new faces and reading lots more documents! After work on Thursday I ventured four blocks down to a true grocery store...I had forgotten how to shop for one, so that was a bit of a shift in thinking. I also saw lots of families, so got even more homesick for Don and the kids! And that reminds me, Don is doing GREAT with the kids! And it seems the kids seem to be doing fine without Mom there too! When Milan asks for me in the mornings, Mzee promptly reminds her: “Mommy is in New York, working!”
It was great to eat some home cooked food after eating restaurant fare for 4 days straight!
Friday at work was more of the same…although it rained throughout the day…luckily after I got to the office. I had to do some paperwork in an office across the street but opted to wait until Monday since it was raining! I sort of expected people to clear out early on Friday, but that doesn’t seem to be the case, which was fine as I had nowhere I had to be. At the end of the day it had quit raining and I made my way back to the subway for my commute, which consists of: a three block walk, the subway for one stop, transfer to another subway after walking through a long tunnel. In the tunnel there is always a musician of some sort playing tunes with a tip jar out. The music is always very good and I can hear it over my iPod. It always makes me smile. I then get on the second subway, go one stop and then walk through the tunnels to the PATH train. Here again there is always another musician or group of musicians and it is very lively and makes the commute home somewhat fun! The path train takes 22 minutes and ends up right at the front door of my building! I made it back to my apartment Friday night and kicked my feet up after a long week!
