It was sad to leave Europe. I was up bright and early and Jean Marie and I had breakfast at 7:00am
and we were off to the airport by 7:30am. Jean Marie dropped me off and she was then going to spend the day shopping her way back to Galway. I know she'll enjoy not having me to drag around with her.It was very nice to land safely at JFK Airport in New York. I took the Airplane shuttle to Jamaica Station to get the E train to Manhattan and when I arrived at the transfer spot I could see my beautiful city in the distance and I could not help but smile at seeing the familiar cityscape.
It is great to be back and it didn't take much time before I was back in the swing of things. About and hour and half to be exact. I arrived back at my apartment, unpacked and was off to my aunt's office to see if her IT person could take a look at my laptop which decided not to work as soon as I arrived in Dublin. Sadly the computer needs more care than I had anticipated so I will have to make a visit to the Little Lap Top Shop in the Lower East side sometime soon.
I then ran some errands and was home in time to watch a little mindless TV and off to bed by 9:30pm.
My second day I had more errands and then theater in the evening with Amelia and Cynthia at the Roundabout's Laura Pels theater. The play was Streamers by David Rabe which was interesting but I had to leave during intermission as I could hardly keep my eyes open.
I had the pleasure of lunch with little sister Stacie and then dinner at Jul
ia's apartment with Pam, Brenda, Sandra, Tracey, Sara and Nina. It was so great to just sit and chat about everything and catch up on all that had happened with the yearly Aching Dogs show. P
am got a welcome home cake for me and a birthday cake for Brenda who celebrated 
her b-day in early November. It was all so wonderful with good food and great friends.

I look forward to seeing all the rest of them when I get back from Thanksgiving in Boston. Mom is visiting for a few days as well which is always lots of fun.
I know, with the exception of the cold, I will enjoy the holiday season very much. I was so blessed to be on such an incredible journey these last few months and I will always treasure my memories.
