About to head home! We had a fun trip that felt like a total time warp whirlwind, and I’m glad we came. This trip was not really tourism-focused but it was fun to explore parts of Seattle nevertheless! We ate some great pho, went to the original Nordstrom, and yes — I did purchase a Patagonia jacket though I actually went with the “down sweater” because I wanted more warmth than the nano puff. Hopefully I won’t regret it!
We had a lovely time at the bar mitzvah festivities and Josh got to spend a good amount of time with his friend which was great. We did a 2023 planning session (yay!) and Josh and I recorded a podcast episode together, so hopefully that will turn out well (will be out a week from tomorrow).

Back to Reality
Re-entry is going to be a bit rough because tomorrow is Halloween AND I have a full patient day. On the plus side I think I’m tired enough that the switch back to Eastern time won’t be too bad? Maybe?
The kids have no school November 1 which was quite strategic of the school.
Happy Sunday!

Glad you had fun! Jacket looks and sounds great. I have a down vest I adore, have had it for a decade and it still looks new.
Excited that Josh will be a guest on BLP! Looking forward to hearing his perspective.
I really like the color! Unfortunately, Patagonia doesn’t seem to fit me well, so I’ll have to admire from afar.
Glad you enjoyed Alaska Airlines. It’s also my favorite airline.
