saturday trip

Today we went to Seattle. Walked a lot. I noticed (well, I have been noticing) that my fingernails were a holy mess, so I decided to find a place to get a manicure. Brian was not at all into sitting through that, so he went to an action flick while I got a full-on hand […]

it’s the water

Observed: we have been here for a week now and we all, including the cats, have softer hair or fur. My skin has been clear, despite it being That time of the month.

limbo

Well, the move is done. The 53′ truck showed up this morning and somehow maneuvered into our storage facility. Quite a feat of turns and mirrors. Most of the stuff was loaded into our 10×10′ unit, and the rest went into our car and my dad’s minivan to come back here for the fall/winter. It […]

pals

I’ve received two letters here already, from two good friends: a notecard and watercolor/ink drawing from Ert and a thank you card from Claire. Thanks you guys! I am hoping I don’t feel too alone out here, though I have my husband and cats. My dad and Louise left this morning on their long trek […]

woo hoo

I just got my new phone, and they gave me a (206) number, too. Friends and family should expect an email soon with my new digits. I’ll be keeping the (415) for another month. Oh and Brian upgraded his phone to this hotass new Treo 750 : If I liked this style of phone, I’d […]
