Biz Burnout, Free Series Day 2, Competition Link, Trip Report Day 5

Published: Sat, 07/20/19


Well it's 90 days until Disney World for a mother-daughter trip with my baby girl. So time to get it in gear again. I'd gotten down to the 240s for NYC and then gained on the trip to 262 (a lot of that is knee inflammation - makes me swell up). So now I'm back to 259.9 and have to work my way down again. LOL! 

The good thing is, my son Dylan said "Isn't it awesome that you can now create and achieve these short term goals when a year ago you were almost 290 and the 240 would have seemed impossible to you?" Very true. 

Note: Monday JR Lang is launching an enormous emotional health PLR bundle and I've developed a nice bonus for y'all. So watch for that!

Trip Report Day 5: Thursday the 11th

This is the non business personal stuff, so if you're business only, you can exit now. Or, keep reading if you're interested.

We started our day at Bibble and Sip. Nice little place! We had a and cookies and cream and strawberry cream puff. Daughter got a latte (too bitter but beautiful design for that Instagram shot LOL) and son got hot chocolate (bitter again, but pretty). I got a yummy regular coffee. Again, we got to sit and people watch at the window stools. Love that! Food was good – very light and airy pastry. 

We took a cab up to Central Park (there’s so much honking and it makes me laugh – in Texas you couldn’t do that – people would road rage if you did) and they have no road rules in NYC. Everyone just slides into whatever space seems open it looks like. LOL

My kids walked into Central Pack across from the American Museum of Natural History because I didn’t realize it was downhill (which means an uphill on return, bad for my knee). They came back and shrugged saying it might be cool for people in the city but it didn’t seem like a big deal to a Texan used to lots of green space and trees. 

We then went into the museum. It was crowded and hot – until you went into the PAID exhibits. We went into the Oceans and T-Rex exhibits. Nice and air conditioned. The other areas had screaming kids on field trips and their teachers screaming at them. I remember being on field trips and always being told to whisper, etc. It’s not like that these days, is it? 

After the two paid exhibits, which were cool (especially the ocean floor in oceans exhibit that made it look like you were walking into the water and the dinosaur evolution), my daughter and I sat and had a drink in the café on the 4th floor while my son toured the rest for another hour and a half. He LOVED it. This is the museum where “Night at the Museum” was filmed, by the way. 

It started raining so we walked w/umbrellas to Patsys Pizzeria for lunch on the upper westside. It’s a neat little neighborhood pizza place with wonderful servers – not crowded or busy, just very quaint. I’m not a big pizza fan, but it was all authentic and the kids liked it. Service and ambiance was lovely. 

From there we headed to Brandy Melville because where I’m at, we don’t have them and my daughter can fit into their one size clothes (size 0). They don’t sell any other sizes. LOL. And I let her go on a big, huge shopping spree. And God bless whoever raised this child, but as I was holding my own daughter’s clothing (you could only take 10 items at a time into the dressing room), some young teenage girl asked me (a very plus sized woman) if I was in line to try on the clothes. Bless her heart. No, I wasn’t – but thank you for mistakenly thinking I might be able to fit into anything there. Ha ha!

After that we headed to Glossier, a makeup store, for another shopping spree. We went in and you simply walk around testing everything, find an associate (like an Apple store) and they put your order in. Then the bag of goodies comes GLIDING down a WALL and into the clerk’s hands to give to you. So neat! Daughter was in Heaven this day. Son was very patient! Both of these places had steep stairs, which I tackled for her, but man I wish elevators were more prevalent.  

We get into the Lyft to return to our hotel and we plug in one of our phones. Suddenly, my other son’s playlist starts cranking out of the speakers – and it’s a very hilarious playlist and we’re all having  good laugh with the driver every time a new song comes on – from Pitbull to Motley Crue to a ton of other stuff. 

Another plus for Lyfts is you don’t need to know locations and cross streets – like you do with cabs. You can’t just tell a cab driver a place – you need to give them cross streets. And some drivers warn you about using a car during rush hour but I LOVED it because I got to people watch and look at buildings. If I’m walking in a crowd, I can’t look up at buildings and enjoy it as much. Plus they give commentary about the area. I can’t get that walking. 

They tell you their stories too – like the driver whose family fled Iran with the clothes on their back to go to Israel, then moved to the USA to NYC. He was parked under the WTC when the first plane hit, got out of his car and looked up thinking it was an accident. Then the second plane hit and he was on the bridge out of the city at lightening speed. I loved hearing their stories and their absolute love of America and our freedom. So many of them said we don’t know how good we have it here. (I do!).

For dinner, we went to The Counter custom burger place in Times Square. You fill out an order form with exactly how you want your burger. My kids got real burgers and I got an impossible (vegetarian) burger. SO yummy and realistic! The place lures you in with the smell of their food – the door is kept open. They have shakes and floats, so I got a root beer float (didn’t like it – very medicinal taste) but my kids liked their shakes. 

Now here’s where the not so fun part begins. I called downstairs because I needed to ask the Knickerbocker how they wanted to handle us switching rooms for our second reservation for the 2 added nights. Only, they didn’t HAVE a reservation for me. Panic. 

I log online and sure enough, it says canceled. I know I didn’t cancel it! So I did a chat w/the agent on Hotels dot com (irritated that you can’t call) and they don’t know how it happened either. He says he can refund me in a week, ($882 for the 2 nights), but that I’ll have to contact the Knickerbocker direct to see if they have a room.

I was LIVID. And worried. I’d heard it’s hard to get a last minute reservation. So of course I’m picturing us standing on the sidewalk with our luggage. LOL

So I called and spoke to George at the Knick and they didn’t have any suites left, like I’d reserved, but they did have a king room with a fold out sofa. So we took it. About the same price as the suite. Hotels dot com did already refund me, about 4 days later. NEVER do it verbally. She entered the wrong email address (like someone completely different – some cheerleading email - not even close to mine, so I wonder if that person got the confirmation and canceled it?). 

Anyway, the day was fun. It just ended on an irritating note. More to come!

Tiff ;)

P.S. Prefer a weekly digest?
