From Queens, waiting for the 7.

Still displaced by #SANDY and finding a new home, again. New subways, new walking paths, new views. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do!

…when the night is dark and your feet are tired. Only in #NYC

Life goes by quick. Take pictures.

More things that happened #aftersandy

Last week it was all about Sandy. This week, it’s a whole new world of blue skies, Santa’s helpers, and me playing house all over the place. Things have been a little hectic, posts not up to date, but I am lucky to know I have a lot of people looking out for me!

Came back from sunny SoCal last weekend and ended got the surprise of SNOW in NYC on Wednesday, yikes! I think I handled it well considering it is only the third time I’ve actually seen snow fall from the sky.

Making history. Yes WE can!

Patriotic night at the Empire State Building. Getting some OBAMA swag.Lucky to live in America, land of the free.

This week NYC went through some rough times. Last year it was Irene and she was a flake and didn’t show up as planned but Sandy came and went as expected leaving many without power, water and for some even a home. It is sad but true that you really don’t know what you got until you have lost it all. Although I had to evacuate my building that suffered from flooding downtown, I am grateful and appreciative to have friends to take me in and offer me a home. There are still so many people living suffering from Sandy and I hope they too will find shelter soon. Hopefully I’ll be able to go back to my apartment soon but for now, I’m off to SoCal to get a break from the East Coast and continue with school priorities. Sandy was the worst natural disaster to hit NYC but I have no doubt that the city will recover and come back ten times stronger.

Last year it was Irene, this year it’s Sandy. The lady hurricanes are causing a NYC disruption, shutting down subways, emptying grocery store shelves and getting everyone to buy water. I’ve moved higher up the numbers streets to a “safe zone.” No school tomorrow, but lets pray for electricity.

Sitting in the front seat of a NYC Taxi headed down from 59th to 14th.

The overcast weather is fit for fall. The sky may be gloomy but the changing leaves and magic moments in the sky make it all worth it.

Wood and circles. More lovely design decision in these NYC restaurants.
