News10 Friends

Well, it's been a rough week. Mike got me sick- and I spent Wednesday and Thursday watching cheesy movies with Cooper and a box of Kleenex.

(editorial note: Mike did NOT get Jen sick. Granted, Mike was sick the week prior, but Jen didn't become ill until 3 days later, and she had different symptoms...she has no one to blame for her illness but herself...so there.)

On Friday I turned the corner and felt better- good thing too. George, Sharon and Sammie were in the city for a visit.

Being away from everything you have ever known really makes you appreciate those that you do know and the friends that you have.

It's so so so nice seeing friends and people you know! Especially old coworkers. News10 was like a family to me in so many ways- maybe I'm just getting sappy after watching Dan Adams' goodbye pkg on news10.net http://www.news10.net/display_story.aspx?storyid=40064

But it's true- you spend just as much time with your co-workers as you do your family- if not more.

So the Warren Clan came to visit at work.
Here's a quick shot. of the fam along w/ another ex-News10er Chris Spitzer.




Chris and I showed them around the network and hung out with them for a few hours and then they went on their way to enjoy the city.


On Saturday, they came up to our neighborhood - Inwood. Sammie and Cooper got reacquainted- they were good friends back in Sacramento - the hung out during News10's softball games.

We went to brunch and then up to explore the Cloisters. Owned by the Met the Cloisters is a medieval castle filled with art from all Gothic and medieval times- really cool and a great view of the city. http://www.metmuseum.org/Works_Of_Art/the_cloisters

It's about a 10-15 minute walk from our place. It was really cool.

It's a beautiful day today - the suns out and it's in the upper 40's- which is warm to me now!

Next weekend Mikes parents come to visit. Yay!! We're so excited.

Hope everyone is doing well.

Miss you all!

Jen
