This weekend, Mark and I drove from New Jersey up to Boston for my nieces birthday. On the way we stopped at Fresh City and Mark got a Cancun Burrito to get that spring break feel. I didn’t have any because it had chicken in it. It was low carb and it made us wonder, why are low carb products rubbery?

There was delicious food and fun family festivities at Hannah’s party.

 

 

 

 

After the party, we headed to my parents’ house in Rhode Island. Sunday morning I used their treadmill for a wonderful 6.25 mile run (50 minutes).

After, I went with my mom, dad, sister, sister’s man friend and Mark to Bagelz in Wickford, R.I.  I got the wheat bagel and roasted pepper hummus. 

 

Mark got a cinnamon raisin bagel with Taylor Ham, egg and cheese. Don’t get this from Bagelz. They use a microwave to cook the eggs and Taylor ham so the eggs are rubbery and the ham doesn’t crisp up like it should when cooked on a giant greased up griddle.

 

Then, we went for a family walk. It was frigid. 

 

 

After lots of driving, we are back in New Jersey and back to cleaning and organizing the apartment.  There is no end in sight!

Tomorrow, Mark is back to work and I am back to searching for a job in New Jersey. I am nervous about it, but have a plan. Tomorrow I am going to complete my resume and start applying as a substitute to some private schools in the area. At the same time, I am going to sign up to substitute in public schools in the area and work on my paper work for obtaining my teaching certification in N.J. I am not sure what I’ll find, but right now, I’m keeping positive! 

One last thing … 

This was Hannah’s birthday party, but her birthday is January 6th. Tomorrow, January 5th, is my other niece’s (Hannah’s cousin) birthday. 

 

Everyone say Happy 8th Birthday to Isabella (left) and Happy 11th Birthday to Hannah (right)!
