Lots of fun and some changes in the last month.
We have been able to enjoy the nice weather outdoors. We visited D.C. There, we took an evening tour of the city, stopping at all the main tourist stops, including Lincoln Memorial, Vietnam Memorial, and Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial. We also got to visit the Air & Space Museum and the Natural History Museum.
We have spent beautiful days walking to parks and squares in the area, having lunch there, and listening to the summer concert series.We celebrated my niece's birthday at the Camden National Aquarium. We had a great time with family. I visited the North Shore Beach Club and got to try out their pool. They have a very nice pool area and a good restaurant with Cuban cuisine. We celebrated Father's Day in Norristown by having dinner and spending time at Plymouth Meeting Mall. Jordan and I visited the Franklin Institute and saw the Dead Sea Scrolls exhibit. This past weekend Norristown had their bicentennial celebration with a Gospel and Jazz concert in the park and with yummy soul food. We joined them for the festivities for a bit before going to celebrate Steve's nephews birthdays in New Jersey.
We are big on movies. This month we watched The Dictator, Chernobyl Diaries, Battleship, Prometheus, and That's My Boy. Some were better than others. I also tried some new foods. Always wanted to try Uni (sea urchin). I tried it at Doma Japanese Restaurant. It was pretty good, but not something I would crave. However, I discovered a great dessert at the Aqua Thai Restaurant, banana pancake, YUM!
Both Steve and I celebrated our birthdays this past month. We went on The Spirit of Philadelphia Dinner Cruise to celebrate. It was a beautiful day with good music, and good food.
Two major changes in the works include my house going up for rent in Norristown and starting a new job in July.
I have posted my home for rent and getting it ready. My ex Tony has been living in it for over a year now, but now he has to move. He has maintained it very well and made some improvements. He finished the hardwood floors and put some new lighting and crown molding. I have listed in on a few sites and have gotten lots of inquiries. I am in the process of taking applications and hoping to make a decision within the next week or so.
Another change, I was offered a great job with the city of Philadelphia in the housing field. The job is similar to what I did with Montgomery County. I am excited about starting a new career in the city. I start July 9th and will be working downtown near my apartment.
Jordan continues his karate and guitar lessons weekly. This summer he is participating in a Music Soundtrack Workshop. Students will be recording a new soundtrack for the movie Nosferatu. They will be performing part of it at the end of the program. I am very excited that he is participating in this program.
I will be starting my new job in a couple of weeks so will have less time to stroll the city. However, I am very excited about going back to work after 4 months off. We hope to make a couple of trips to the shore, and perhaps NY during the weekends this summer, and before the fall and cooler weather arrives.
