So this past weekend for me has just been excitement nonstop. On Friday my step dad announced that for our summer vacation we will be returning to one of my favorite islands, St. Maarten! It's absolutely gorgeous down there and will be incredibly warm since my family will be going in August.
Then on Saturday night I went with my Aunt, Uncle and 8 of their friends to the Ralphie May show at Banana's Comedy Club in Hasbrouck Heights. The show was incredibly obscene and vulgar but hilarious non-the-less. Ralphie recently underwent triple by pass surgery and has lost 60 lbs already. I hope the surgery continues to work towards bettering his health!
Sunday night was definitely the best night of the weekend though because ... drum roll please .... I bought a new car! I've been driving an old little saturn for 3 years before I got into an accident in November. A woman ran a stop sign right into the passenger side of my car and basically totaling it. I began looking for new cars and thought it was hopeless so I had my insurance company fix the car hoping I would be able to sell it in the spring. Fate took control and put the car I've been looking for right on display of Rt. 46 on my way to school. I checked out the car and it was exactly what I had been looking for! Low mileage, great condition, good price. I am now the proud owner of a 2007 Ford Fusion SE Limited Edition :)
To continue the weekends good run, my step dad decided to return to work til Monday morning after being home from work for 3 weeks to recover from surgery. 3 Weeks ago, Joe went into Lenox Hill to Laparoscopically removed a cancerous tumor from his kidney. Once the surgery began the doctors realized they couldn't perform the surgery as planned due to the size of the tumor. Unfortunately they ended up having to cut a 10 inch incision on his size increasing his recovery time from 3 weeks to 6 weeks. Fortunately the doctors were able to completely remove the tumor and he is healing nicely.
Lastly, I finally booked my spring break trip! Three friends and myself will be driving up to Jiminy peak mountain in the Berkshires. I've been there before and it's a teeny town in Mass but the mountain is nice. I'll be there for four days and three nights with two days of boarding. I'm excited!
I hope everyone is enjoying their week and the unexpected snow!
Wow I am so jealous! St. Marteen!! Ive never been to an island and am dying to go, sometime sooon. Sounds like an awesome weekend for you :) also, good luck with the new car.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the new car!! I know how exciting it is, last winter I bought a new car. I was scared to drive it though since it was soo much nicer than my old one. Have fun on your spring break and summer vaca! And I'm happy to hear that your stepdad is doing well.
ReplyDeleteYay I love new cars! I was looking to get one back in the summer before I realized just how broke I was haha. But the fusions are really nice, I was looking at those and the other new taurus they were both really nice! Maybe one day I will get a new one too considering my car just continues to come back from the dead aha! Also, have fun in St. Marten! I have never been but have a lot of friends who have and absolutely love it!
