Florida for next year

I have seen a place while I was in Ft Lauderdale, I met an agent and I asked her can you show me some places? This lady, this agent, she showed me few one bedrooms for next season. It's a one bedroom with a big walk in cubbard, they put another bed in it, so it's like another bedroom. And they have a couch that folds out, so you can sleep there too. It's nice, maybe I'll get it for next year. Who knows until next December though?

Good times in Florida

I miss Florida and my friends and my sister and my brother there. I had a good time with them really. I miss being there in the evening. long days and you sit and you watch the ocean, and the air is so nice.

There was this hotel next to us and we sat there. they would have a barbecue. Every day, and one night they had this big animal they were roasting and the chef was slicing it and was saying, "you want a taste, you want a taste?" I said to Doreen, "look at this!" I asked the chef "what is this?" He said, "it's a pig." They had a pig roast. And Steve was there and he said, "oh you don't know this? many times i have had this pig roast." He said it's delicious. But i didn't want it.

Back in Montreal

So now I'm in Montreal.

Stacy came to visit me from New York and Roxy came to visit before she goes to Australia. Such an exciting weekend we had. Stacy and Roxy and Brandon and his baby, and Harvey was here for dinner too. It was exciting, this weekend, we made sambusak! Sambusak with chick peas. For Lisa, Roxy took them to her in Chicago. Sambusak is like Indian samosa. Lisa called me and she said Jon liked the sambusak very much.

Tomorrow I go back to Montreal

Tomorrow I go back to Montreal. I'm happy to go back, but I wish I could have stayed longer. I'm relaxed, I'm happy here, it's so relaxing. I call Doreen and she calls me maybe 3-4 times a day. We call each other, and we walk together every day. Anyway, I'll write from Montreal next time.

Politic

When Steven was here, we were talking about politics and I asked him, "who are you going to vote for?" He said probably Obama. I liked him, but what do I know about American politics? I find Hillary Hilton is nice too. She's patriotic. Who is going to win? There is McCain, for the Republican, also. I don't know, I am not American and I don't care. What difference does it make to me?

Steven and Vivian were here

Steven and Vivian were here, they came to visit Doreen and she invited me for dinner. Me and Haim. And we're talking, I don't know how it happened, Vivian said, "you know, Haninah has a blog and I read it," and Steven said, "I'm going to read it, I'm going to read it when I get back to New York." You know, he's very sociable, very friendly, he likes me so much. He drinks whiskey on the rock and he brought some for Haim. He asked me if I wanted and I said no. He said, "you don't drink anything?" Then he said, "you want hashish?" I said, "no, coke," and he said, "oh! I thought you meant Coca-cola but you mean cocaine!" And we were all laughing. Vivian is still very cute, she's pretty.

Ezy's birthday.

Tomorrow is Ezy's birthday. Maybe he'll call me today, he usually calls me on Sunday. I'll wish him then.

Vivi and Steve are coming

Doreen's daughter Vivi is coming with her husband Steve, they're staying with Doreen for three, four days. Doreen has a one bedroom like me, with a couch. They'll stay there and then they're going to to Hallandale, they have friends there. So I'm going to see them. Doreen is excited that Vivi is coming, she's preparing.

My friend came to visit from Montreal

Today you don't know we had 70s and 80s, the past few days it's been cold and windy, very windy. But today people were swimming in the ocean.

I had a friend from Montreal, from the Y, she has a house in West Palm Beach, and she came to visit me and she put on her bathing suit and went in the ocean for half an hour. She said, "oh, that's so nice, I really appreciate it, you don't know how much I like this." She came with her husband with the car. They drove down from Montreal, then her husband is flying back up and leaving her the car, then he comes back down and picks her up.

We took the bus to Sawgrass

I went with my sister Doreen, there is a place, Sawgrass, about an hour and a half we went by bus. We spent the whole day there and we ate there. They have a food court, they gave us samples. We met some Iraqi friends there, and we sat down we had food together there. Then we went shopping, a lot of shops. Like Gap, like Starbuck. And suits, ooohh, so many, so many. You walk about an hour you don't see it all. They have from the factory there. These developers, they opened this area and they put in this shopping center.
