Poppy loves the Bok Bok park, she even asked to go there tonight.

Got my final sticker at a Lunch & Learn today, except I can't get the back off the sticker!  Retail occupancy is only 7% in Pioneer Square currently, that is a big win but still feels like a lot of empty spaces walking around.

None of our glass storage containers match the lids.  It frustrates us both.  After a lot of trial and error, found a paint pen to label the sides and tops of matching sets.

Poppy, her Little People, and a whole lot of distractions outside the windows.

 A super long super difficult week, nice to be at a Friday with WFH.  Banana stand walk.

Spent the late afternoon at the Optum Madison clinic. Their elevators are down so it is quite the upset condition as I headed from the temporary doctor office to x-ray to labs.

When I do downward dog in my Peloton yoga sessions, I see this Little People bear peering at me.

Wore a hat to church today and got a lot of compliments.  Most of them from Michelle, but a lot nonetheless.

Walked to coffee at the overlook and this composition caught my eye as the market was setting up for a busy day.

Made it to another weekend.  It will be a working weekend, but at least I can check out for a minute.  It was a rough day at the end of rough week. Checking out a new restuarant instead of eating at home, it has been that kind of week.

Good morning Smith Tower!  I took this photo to share with my stepbet group, but it cropped funny in the app.

This graffiti caught my eye on the way to work and I actually stopped to snap a photo.  On third avenue, where I am normally trying to move along.

Poppy was disappointed that the spray park wasn't spraying water at the South Park playground, so Grandpa gave her a personalized spray experience.  She kept going back for more water fountain play.

I have better photos of her, but loved the sun light and water beads on this one.

The holiday was just a normal work day, but I did take a longer lunch and met Bruce at PAX for some red beans and rice.

The theme of the day is people, lots and lots of people.

How quickly we remember that we don't love big crowds.

The Argosy boat is just visible on the lake.  We were crammed in with 400 people for a 45 minute sailgate to the game, getting there well later than we normally would and got to wait in long entrance lines.

No midgame snacks because the lines were too long and we prioritized the restroom lines.

The Huskies won, the weather was great, still glad I went, but not quite what I envisioned...

Diana is flying solo for the weekend so she came to visit.  Great to catch up.  And enjoy Biscuit Bitch, Super Chix, and Molly Moon!

Finished my last book and turned in my summer Book Bingo card tonight.  12 books total is not a strong showing, but considering how busy life is, I'm happy to have gotten two bingo rows.  And a lot of fun books, can't pick a favorite.

After getting completely soaked yesterday on my commute home, sporting a jacket today.  Fall is here!

Poppy on Wed this week, we stayed in the building and played with new to her toys.  And ate snacks since she didn't love Currant Bistro in the lobby.

September 1, Anastasia and I doing a Stepbet together.  I've been walking less over the past few weeks so my goals aren't crazy high, but this will push me to a new conisistency.
