Isaac is quite the little boy now! For the last 4 times we've gone shopping, he's been riding in the cart! It's very exciting. He absolutely loves it. He looks around and around and we talk about all the tantalizing things on the store shelves.
(Now, yes, those of you germ-a-phobes WILL notice, he doesn't have a THINGIE. A shopping cart cover THINGIE. Yes, money is TIGHT! Law school is expensive! But, mommy always wipes down the cart with the anti-bacterial wipes first, so don't you worry now. We won't even start to discuss the doggie situation at home, because I know there's only so much you can take. Just know that the entire line of Lysol cleaners has become my new best friend.)
And, on the eve of turning 40, I think I've finally figured out how to keep the house continuously clean and straightened, the bills up to date, and the laundry and food coming. How sad that it took me this long. But, I guess when you're a working girl, you aren't just focused on the homestead. How freeing it is though! How much more able I am to enjoy time with Isaac, and how much more I'm able to be present with my mom and the dogs.
Today Dave and I are off to the asian market. Oh, how we miss the Uwajimaya. The asian markets around here are a little more 'authentic' then Dave and I are truly comfortable venturing into. Yes, we like pretty branding, and businesses that invest in marketing, interior decor, lighting and cleanliness. We are like Meg and Hamilton Swan from Best in Show--*so* lucky to have been raised amongst catalogs.
We are making delicious Thai and Malaysian food because we live in the MOUNTAINS and there is only Chinese out here.

Hi Tara, I showed Isaac and this blog to his Great Great Aunt Dorothy and she thought he is so cute. I second that. Patt
