Adios Seattle!

Well, I survived my last day at work yesterday. After 11 years in the insurance biz it was definitely bittersweet and a little surreal. I was completely floored and touched by the love and support of my co-workers and clients. I will truly miss all of them, especially each member of my quirky little DiMar family.

I then had an amazing send off last night. Thai with my good friend Katie followed by some beers at Kings Hardware - my all time fav bar in Seattle. Thank you for everyone that came out! It meant so much to me to have each of you there and reminded me that I am blessed with the best friends on the planet!

It's a gorgeous, sunny day here in Seattle - perfect taste of the summer before I leave. I think the mountain may even be out to say good bye (ha!)...Passport? Check! Euros? Check! Wristband? Check! Guess I'm as ready as I'll ever be...flight to DC leaves at 2...adios Seattle! See you in September!
