I had a fun day trip to Portland with Victoria on Sunday. We hit the new, ritzy Bridge Point Village at Lake Oswego, and went a little crazy at Talbots. I ended up with 4 shirts and a perfect skirt. After refreshing ourselves at Zao Noodle, we headed up to Washington Square and perused Nordies and J. Crew. I got myself a decadent pair of shoes that Vic and the salesman said would be comfortable and last me many years to come....which they'd better cause I just blew my shoe budget for the next decade ;-)
We had great chats on the drive up and back, and it didn't even feel like we had left Eugene.

I know, a big shock, Jamie has a life, too! I had a wonderful weekend at the beach with JUST my mom which gave me hope for the detachment of these last pesky apron strings. Emma is fully weaned, and exuberantly vocal. Fortunately it is usually words exerting her independence and not screams and fits (although we have our share of those around this house as well). My schedule will be changing next week when Sam goes to first grade, Emma and I will have to explore Eugene unencumbered by the homebody who never wants to do anything. I've been having time in the eves to read again, and just finished Tess of the D'Urbervilles (again) which makes this girl happy to live in the time of possibility and enlightenment. We've come a long way, babes!

I would like to add my personal birthday message to Sadie today. Thanks for including me as a "Sister" in your life! We are all thinking of you.

I've been having quite an emotional time these last few weeks. My dad is back in the hospital with blood clots and infection in his legs. I'm very worried about him and I feel tired and unable to maintain my usual managerial vigilance about the home. I guess I have a good excuse to cut myself some slack and pour a glass of wine and lean on my good friends for awhile ;-)
