Sun, Nov 6, 2022, The Enemy won

 I went to a 9a service this morning. Namely, to reach my quota of doing 3 things out of the house. I left at 10a to get biscuits from McDs before breakfast service ended.

I like contemporary Christian songs. The part of the sermon I did catch was about Praise. Basically, it went something like when you let The Enemy win he steals your joy (check!), then your thanksgiving (check!), and then your prayer. (check!!)

We should be praising God before, during, and after the miracles/answered prayers.

Should we though?

I do wonder if I did enough praising. Isn't that kind of how Christianity gets you. One can never prove if your praise was enough.

But clearly mine wasn't. 

So Sean and Dan didn't work out.

I saw a lady at church in front of me with this great light flowy dress. That's what I want to get for Seattle next year.

I decided to just keep planning My Perfect Year. Whether I live for 1 day after or 1 decade, I just want to plan 1 Perfect Year. 

I don't know how much longer I can keep my job so my focus there is just to make it to Bonus Day 2023. That, I hope will give me enough money to fund my Seattle Summer.

Right now, based on my current data, I want to go around Memorial Day. Ideally, I'd like to ring in summer in Seattle. And stay until end of October. Maybe leave around Nov 8- Aunty MERJ's birthday. But end of October works too. 

I'll still message Sean and Dan because I've never been able to shed my turn over every rock part of my personality.

But I'll implement all my tips and notes.

I just want to have fun, get away for the summer, and get out of the house.

I'm still deciding if I should start shopping for cute clothes now or wait till next year. I don't know if it's worthwhile to go through some of my old clothes for anything I can wear. I kind of don't want to. There is a red jacket I remember eyeing. I know there was a blue dress I used for interviews that might need to be resurrected. 

I think I'll invest in another suitcase so I can carry more shoe options.

I might get another bin so I can store my beautiful 10 new outfits. I just remembered I can use old Catalyze points at Old Navy. That will be fun!

For the next 2 months, I'll just focus on the old lady meetup groups, church, and there are a couple volunteer events and an event at the Botanical Garden. 

Only 8 weeks left in this year.
