My husband and I talked, and we are looking forward to moving back to Seattle as soon as he finishes school. So--turns out, he doesn't like it here either! Having that to look forward to lifts my mood immeasurably.

I love to SOLVE problems---especially when things like CAREGIVING are so intractable, long-standing, and unSOLVEable.

Um--I better tackle my MESSES--my Aunt Mary is coming to visit us during the Inauguration of President-elect Obama!

More soon.
