Costco Wholesale Membership Update

I meant to reply sooner, but the afternoon got away from me and I only just sat down.

I did end up taking your suggestion and tried the longer route through the park, and it was exactly what I needed. The path was quieter than the main streets, and there were barely any people around, which made the whole walk feel calmer. I brought a notebook thinking I might jot something down, but I mostly just listened to the birds and watched the trees move in the wind.

I also remembered what you said about keeping the evening simple, so I skipped making big plans and spent a little time tidying up instead. It helped more than I expected. The room feels a bit lighter now, and I can actually find the book I was searching for last week. I think tomorrow I’ll do one more pass and clear off the desk completely.

Membership Services Update

I was thinking about your question during breakfast, and the short answer is yes, I’d still go every single time.

The best part honestly wasn’t the destination at all, it was how easy the whole afternoon felt once I stopped hurrying. I packed way less than usual, wore something comfortable, and let the day unfold instead of planning every hour. That made it much more enjoyable, and I noticed a bunch of little details I usually miss when I’m rushing between things. The weather helped too since it stayed cool enough to be outside longer than I expected.

If you decide to try it, I’d say leave a little extra time at the start so you’re not watching the clock. Bring water, wear shoes you don’t have to think about, and keep your phone tucked away for at least part of it. I came back feeling more awake than tired, which was a nice surprise.
