Hannah Visit

I am very excited to report that tomorrow I will visit with a woman by the name of Hannah who is like a grandma to me. She and I became friends when I lived in Hollywood, Fl. She has filled my life with so much happiness and love. She never judges or condemns you for anything. Her niece lives here in Long Beach, NY. Which is about an hour or 2 from me. So I will be driving out there to visit with her and I could not be more excited. Last time I saw her was in March when I went home for my Sweet 36th. I cant wait to see Hannah and to visit a new area of New York. It is supposed to be beautiful where she is,so it will be fun fun fun ! Backing up a few days to July 4th. Penny and I spent the day trolling around the city having fun. We started off at Sheep Meadow in Central Park, It is where the New Yorkers go to lay out. What a huge, pretty. peaceful open meadow it is. The day was filled with lots of sun, giggles and some nice good old fashioned........... vodka. We had planned on watching the Macys Fireworks over the Hudson at 920 pm so we decided to go home and relax for a bit before going back out into the city. The city really takes a lot out of you. There is so much walking and right now its been in the 90s with little to no breeze. So you are hot and sweaty outside walking or catching the train. Taking a cab is rarely done because it adds up at the end of the month to be more then a car payment. After we went home and freshened up we met up t watch the fireworks. Apparently it is a pretty famous show that is televised so being there in person was super cool We were shuffled into an area with about a million others and we ended up all on the road. People put there things down and just like that we were all ready to watch the show. The show tool place and wow! Talk about being at a loss of words. The noise and light from the show was just overwhelming. I tried to just take it all in but it was so hard to do. What a blessing to be there and here in Manhattn NY!! The fireworks was just under a half hour. After the show was done we walked around Times Square taking pix and having fun. The night grew late fast and we needed to be responsible and journey back to our places. Which is just what we did. I had a wonderful day! Happy birthday to America!!

Wow what a great day! I made an apt with Rod Goodman to take my headshots and today we scheduled to meet. I must say walking up to his studio was pretty cool. To think that I have finally made an appointment that has been hanging over my head for a while now, is liberating to have accomplished it. So back to today. We met I love his studio and he seems very easy to work with. I think the shoot will give me the results in which I am seeking. I chatted with my brother and what a great conversation we had, I am always excited to talk with him. Hes the best big brother a girl would have. Sadly he I do not see him or the other Leffs as much as I would like. After the meeting the chatting and the strolling around the city in my super sexy plum colored heels I came home to chill for a bit. My girlfriend Penny and I had decided to get a drink later so I wanted to take a little nap before hand, but when I got home my roommate was home so we talked a bit. Then later came and it was drink time with my girl Penny. I walked over to MIdtown to a little place on 55th just off 5th ave. The company and conversation was as good as it always is with Penny. The time flew by and the time for us to leave had approached. We said our nite nites and went our separate ways. Now I am back at my apartment and it is so quiet here. Both of my roommates have gone out of town. I drove one of them to the airport in Newark NJ yesterday and what an adventure! Holly cow! FYI if going through the Holland Tunnel at rush hour leave about 3 hours early! Yikes!!! It all worked out though we had fun on the crazy ride to the airport. On my way back to Manhattan I decided to return my ac unit at walmart. So I GPS ed my self to the nearest one and baaam I was there. Yea I was there all right for like 4 hours!! What the?!?!? I mean I did go to another a few other stores so 4 hours really is nothing. Back to today... I am about to shut this computer off but Letterman has a man on talking about what he calls a floating trash island. He is speaking about the plastics in the ocean and sea. It is so interesting, a topic I am very interested in. I am huge on loving Mother Earth! I will have to look into what he is talking about. He says its killing sea life and how plastic bags suffocate the coral :( so sad. BPs oil gushing into the ocean is super sad and I will update us on that soon. Capt Charles Moore I believe letterman just stated as the name of this guest.

Fall is in the air. Although fall in Florida is not quite like the fall most people know. A bit cooler for us than normal and snowbird seaso...
