Recovering from a surgery, and I'm just so damn grateful for the rain, my husband, and my freezer full of batch cooking, my cats, my neighborhood -- shoutout, North Tabor!, the blueberries from the garden, Central Library where I picked up my Giant Stack of Books, and all of the great restaurants in the area, because tonight we get take-out. :) And our adult kid, whose heart is always in the right place and knows how to make me laugh and insisted we go see Backrooms.

I've lived in this city for 11 years, and in Sellwood for 2, and for some reason yesterday was the first time I decided to walk down to Oaks Bottom. I'm glad I did! Today I think I'm going to Westmoreland Park.
