We saw another seven places today; this time they were all closer to where we are now rather than up by the school. I liked three of them and Craig liked two. One is on the 33rd floor! I would much prefer to be lower but lower isn't always an option! We have to decide which place we want to try to get and then work through Craig's company so even if we decide we like something, the owner might not like the terms we are working with and it might fall through. So, it's a good thing we've got several on the list that we really like. Hopefully the whole process won't be too painful/obnoxious.
When Craig & I got back, we decided to take the new car out to dinner with the kids. The kids have named the car "blueberry" since it is blue. We went to Great World City (where Minsue took me) since it was a place you can't get to by subway. We had dinner at Skinny Pizza and Oh My Dog. We originally were trying to go to Oh My Dog (hot dog place) but there wasn't any seating and that wasn't going to work very well! So, we decided to go to Skinny Pizza (their tag line is "What a crack!") and you could order hot dogs from Oh My Dog so we all were able to get what we wanted in the end.
I'm going to attempt to drive tomorrow. The driving itself doesn't look crazy or out of control (comparing to Doha here!) it's just the left-hand side that has me a bit nervous. I'll have Craig with me and the GPS to help out so I'll figure it out. I'm hoping to procure a Christmas tree, a transformer for the printer, and some groceries. Any one of those items would be pretty nice, actually!
I'm feeling almost better after I took some motrin this morning; my sore throat is mostly gone but I'm really worn out. If I don't improve by Monday I'll head to the doctor then.
