New Adventure!

Wow! It's been February since I updated my blog. So much has happened. I went on my dream trip to Fiji, Steve and I finally called it quits, Jordan sang in a Spring concert and is preparing for another one this summer. He is finishing 10th grade, taking his finals this week, and is looking forward to the summer. We have two trips planned for the summer, one to Miami, and one to Disneyworld.

We took my dream trip to Fiji in February. It was heavenly. We stayed on Treasure Island for 5 days. Check it off my bucket list. We even got to spend a day at Universal Studios in LA before returning home from our trip to Fiji. Jordan loved it. I got to see a Flamenco show live at Merriam Theater, which I loved. I discovered all you can eat crabs at Warmdaddy's on Tuesdays...lol. We celebrated my mom's 66th birthday in March. I went to The Barnes for a native indian flute music event. Joined fillaseat philadelphia and now get tickets for a lot of cool events. What a great deal! I took a singles trip to Punta Cana, Dominican Republic and had lots of fun! Saw Charlie Murphy (Eddie's brother) at Helium Comedy club, very funny guy and not as dirty as his brother. I have spending a lot of time with friends and family now as a single gal. Looking for a new love baby...lol. Or maybe not, enjoying my freedom to the max.

Went to Latin Night at the Kimmel Center and danced the night away! Discovered Reserve Wine Bar in Chinatown, they have Jazz meetup events. Tried Acupuncture for the first time-it was ok, nothing special. Spent weekend in NY-saw Motown Musical, Awesome performance! Joined North Shore Beach club in Northern Liberties. Love it!  I can spend some time there this summer by the pool. Signed up for bartending refresher course and hopefully get job placement right after. I went to Jazz event at Hotel Monaco with my pal Jeff. Took a Haunted Harbor tour on the Delaware and saw Roller Derby live for the first time, brutal..lol. I also took a paint class and it was so much fun! I have a painting in my bedroom..lol. I definitely want to do that again.

At work I went to a housing project opening where Jon Bon Jovi was a speaker. Discovered noon church service on Tuesdays close to work. Wow! Great stuff. They call it the "Hour of Power" and  it is that indeed. Having some difficulty at work, and may have to start looking elsewhere for employment opportunities. I love what I do, but my personality is more collaborative and easy-going, while others seem to be aggressive and confrontational, almost like sales, which I don't like. They seem to get ahead and are in good favor with superiors though. Oh well...we will see.

So much has happened. Looking forward to more adventures to come and perhaps falling in love again very soon. There's someone now that may be up to par...lol.
