We went to church on Sunday at Sure Foundation in Queens. They were very welcoming and a small community. We're looking forward to going again despite the warm climate and 45-minute commute. We walked along the Riverside Park pier. It was wonderful to feel the breeze and watch Nina take in the sights and sounds. She saw her first speed boat.
On Monday, we got the keys to our apartment for the next two years. It was smaller, much smaller than we had expected, and we'll need to be creative in figuring out how to fit everything in, but it's looking much better! Why, keep reading...
Late Monday night, we decided to reserve a car, for early Tuesday morning, from the nearby Prestige Car Rental which surprisingly had competitive prices to Budget and other larger competitors. We went to Sears to buy a window A/C unit, IKEA for lunch and purchase of some rugs and curtains, drove along the northern shore of Long Island, and finally did a grcoery store run for bulky items. It was a very LONG day.
We were all tired the next day (Wednesday) so we went to toddler playground at
Riverside Park at 66th. In the afternoon, I went to the new apartment and got one of the maintenance staff to install the window A/C unit. I learned a couple of things from him.
A couple of times this week, given the sweltering heat and humidity, we have gotten a Jamba Juice. Nina knows how to say "Jamba Juice" and our latest favorite is the Strawberry Surf Rider.
Wednesday evening Greg returned back. He and Nina have played a couple of times together. I love seeing the smiles.
