It's a good day nonetheless

 Well I've got my last deliverable off to QC! Phew! I have a meeting with my manager tomorrow, and hopefully I can take it easy until Monday. 

And I don't have any homework for Monday, so this weekend has all the makings for a great weekend!

There was some work stress and emotional distress earlier because therapy, but I feel good anyway. My counselor and I don't see eye to eye on race and dating, but it's not my job to convince him. Although it would be a little easier if he just saw things the way I did. Oh well!

My next biggest dilemma is figuring out dinner. When I was putting the finishing touches on the document, I told myself I'd treat myself to some chicken nuggets, but now I don't really feel like it. I have one more pack of noodles but I want to save that for a special day. 

I might just have some oatmeal or make some muffins later. The sun has gone down, so it's much cooler now. 

I just lay down for about an hour and that hour went by so fast. 

Without dating, I don't know if vacationing in Seattle makes as much sense. Now I'm wondering if I can replace Dubai with Miami in the winter.

But not sure about summer. Or Fall for that matter. Maybe it's a decision for 2024 me. 

Yay, my last few tax statements are turned in and my tax preparer is on it. I'm curious to see if she will be able to advise me of anything. 

I thought about not continuing with full service but since it was just a couple clicks to add the last 2 documents the easier thing was to just keep going. Spend that money, MERJ! 

I think I can still have a fun summer even in Seattle without dating. Whatever I decide, I'll just have to round up as long as I can get out of the house. 

The only other city I'm considering is maybe Boston, that's the only city in the NOrtheast that's offered by the short term rental companies.

I've already lived in California, so not sure San Diego will make the cut. Plus, California is like prime skinny white woman territory, so yeah, that might be an easy pass. Well that was easy. Pacific Northwest it is!

It has to be a city with a lot of transplant people, I'm just not getting that vibe when I think of Portland. Seattle might still win.

I did enjoy the train travel and visiting the nearby cities when I spent a summer in Boston though, so we'll see. 

Maybe Boston in the Fall?! Huzzah! I like this plan. Welp, Seattle still wins for cooler weather in both seasons. I have to remember that was also a reason.

I just probably need to find a better spot with more eateries.  Or maybe I'll just stick to City/Lakehouse vibes. Just teetered a bit.

Alright I'll stick to the plan. Done!

I think I'll just eat some oatmeal and watch time go.
