TGIF, survived another crazy week.

Joan and I went out to dinner and celebrated my birthday.

Made the long trek to Rein Haus to meet Xander for dinner and an author chat with Matthew Desmond.

Got a big surprise at the office this morning.  Sounds like maybe they had a hard time getting labor in Pioneer Square.  Very sad, hopefully something interesting moves in eventually.

Mondays are Amazon days, and today there is balloon art at the banana stand.

People watching and soaking up the sunshine before our play at Seattle Rep.

Happy birthday to me!  Brunch with Xander at Mainstay Provisions.  A lovely restful day.

 Friday work from home was so welcomed this week, as was squeezing in a walk to the banana stand.

It has been so long since I have scribbled on the white board! Since the pandemic there is always someone joining remotely and they can't see the board.  But I did it anyway because it is so much easier than doing it on the computer.

Took 10 co-workers to Metropolitan Grill tonight.  The bill took my breath away.

03-19-24

 

In meetings for all all eight hours of the next three days, so thrilled to have this extra large Yeti to tote around with me.  Only problem is that a co-worker sitting next to me has the exact same one.  Off to etsy to find a way to customize it!

Oscar the troll on Vashon Island was really cool since first sight, but when we moved to the side and his eyes were tracking right to us it was amazing.  Love his birdhouse crown.  And this great weather!

 Silent Reading Party with the kids at the sculpture park.  Perfect Sabbath activity!

03-15-24

Corned beef and cabbage for St Patricks Day on the rooftop with the sunshine.  Fridays don't get better than this!

Co-workers are sharing photos of what they did with their marble slabs from the Taj Mahal.  At church we are talking about how the absense of beauty leads to the absense of hope.  Enjoying my creativity, art, and hope this week!

 Hair done tonight.  Refreshed color, cut, fiv emroe strands of Sparkles.  Just missed the light rail train both directions, but ready for another five weeks!

03-12-24

 

Hi ho, hi ho, off to work I go.

I recently noticed this really intricate carving inside the arch down the street.

03-10-24

 

Trying to mix up our walking paths.

Walked to the central library, went inside to ride the escalator up the hill, and immediately exited to walk back home.

Some seotter therapy today.  Except the aquarium was so crowded, no zen getting to them.

03-08-24

Employee Appreciation dinner with Allied in Bellevue tonight.

03-07-24

Target, family zoom call, and overtime tonight.  Another brutal week but making it through.

03-06-24

Another apartment complex tour tonight. number four of five this round.

We now know that management will stand my me working out at 5am and that we will be on month to month for six months, so moving is less imminent, but the tours were scheduled and we still love to see what else is out there.

The Olivian and Helios are our top picks.  Olivian doesn't have the wow views but it has nice units and we like the vibe.  Including that they have a beehive onsite and hand out honey to the prospective future residents.

Pretty new flowers on the rooftop space and pretty sunset.  I headed up early to make sure we had space for small group, but small group was super small this week.

03-04-24

 Monday night, walk with Mom and mujadara after.

It's goodd to have routines.

03-03-24

I had a friend watching me in the fitness center this morning.

03-02-24

With our lease expiring April 10th, we are on the hunt to see what else is available.

We shop around every year since we love to tour buildings, but this year feels like a move may be more imminent.

This was the fridge at Onni SLU.  A building with fantastic amenities, but the location, tile flooring, and plain units didn't impress.

Happy March and happy Friday!

After a brutal week it was surprisingly easy to stay up late and enjoy the dueling piano bar.
