What is the best week to visit in November?

I’m considering the second week but worried about Labor Day. The third week I believe has the decorations but looks a lot more expensive. Will the expensive days keep crowds a bit lower?

I’m very used to wear oversized crop tops. I’m trying to embrace my figure and wear tighter clothing. It does make me feel good when I can bear it. Not necessarily skin tight, but something a bit more fitted and shapely. I’m short so ‘cropped’ tops do look better, but I can always tuck a longer shirt in. Any basic eve try day tees you love that have a more of a feminine cut?

We had planned to take the Amtrak from Seattle to Portland in June, but realized it overlaps with the World Cup, and I’m overwhelmed with the chaos that might be in the city and having a young kid trying to navigate it. Has anyone done that route- would it be worth the Amtrak stress- sounds pretty? Our other option is to visit Portland directly first 1-2 weeks in October. Will it be too cold/wet? Trying to get my husband on board to move out that way so looking for ideal weather.

We’d really like to take our cat to get her teeth cleaned, she’s 10. However she’s extremely feral. This morning was our second fail getting her in the box. We’re very scraped up. It’s traumatic for everyone and she gets more fearful of us each time, as if that’s possible. She will not take meds, the liquid or the pills or the powder. We can’t keep rescheduling and failing until eternity and starving the cats all night. I feel so defeated.
