Boston is a great city. The people are nice and the city is beautiful. The food is very good. I never thought that I would feel so at home in Boston. Thank you Bostonians for such a wonderful experience. I have also downloaded some pics.

Even Money

I recently watched the film Even Money. It was boring and sad. I fell asleep twice. You would think a movie with a great ensemble cast would be good. Dialogue was stale. The ending felt hollow. The movie was about gamblers and their families. The movie gives us a view of the shady underworld of gambling and the consequences of living your life depending on the next big win. I really don't know what could have made this movie better. In the end, someone had to die so other lives can get better. That sucks!!!!!

Johnstown

We are moving to Johnstown. My husband and I we be moving to there this summer. Ed has a new job and it is located in Johnstown. So, we went to visit the area. I was taken aback. The town is larger than I thought but it was another depressed community in western Pennsylvania. I thought that it would be a thriving community because John Murtha really tried to bring business to the area. However, I see that Allegheny County was not the only community that was devastated by the loss of steel mills.

Oh yeah, What is up with the many pizzerias? They were everywhere!!!!!!!!!! All they eat is pizza ;)

Starting anew

I recently watched a movie called "Strictly Sexual." It was nice. I liked the movie. The movie tells the story of people that let their sexual desires set the mood of their romantic relationships. We are watching two couples create relationships in two totally different ways. Friendship is the key component in this story. Two best girlfriends hook up with two best buddies. In the end we see how some relationships endure as other relationships evolve. The story is interesting and entertaining. I won't say you must see this movie but if you happen to see it or stumble on it do not ignore.

Braddock needs help!!! We need people to help stop UPMC Braddock from closing. The Directors of UPMC has made a big mistake. This is a serious of mistakes that UPMC has made. Shutting down hospitals in poor neighborhoods. They are amoral characters. I pray that God will help them see the error of their ways.

I'm still looking for a house. One day I will find a house that will meet all of our needs. It has been peaceful this spring. The rain has been a little much.

I have had a hard time picking classes this semester. I did pick some classes that I think I will enjoy. They were not my first pick it is still the best pick for me at this time.
