I promise the story has a good ending (or two or three) so you can read on and know that it’s all going to turn out fine. When Swap Shop and Roost board members and [...] … Fortunately for me and everyone else reading this, there are little pockets of joy right here in Portland where you can feel really good about what you have bought, who you have bought it from and how it was made… [...] Everything we do with our body uses some combination of our strength, our flexibility and our endurance. Addressing just one of these three and not the others, as some of us can vouch for, can make the problem even worse. Israel’s work is all about better coordinating our own body’s natural balance while honoring that simple truth that we have gotten into whatever pinch we are in for very good reasons more complex than it all first appears. [...] As a town that appreciates cottage industries (especially if they brew beer) and celebrates living locally, we may want to consider adopting Bea Weiss-Krull’s home town Tuttlingen Germany as our sister city. Her part of Germany is known as the world headquarters for precision medical instruments making . . . but before you start [...] If you are lucky enough to have all the kids in your family out of car seats and even through with booster seats . . . you can skip right past this email and only check in with The Hawthorne Auto Clinic when you need a great, local car mechanic. For the rest of [...] Lawrence Convalescent Center is a small, locally-owned, family run intermediate care facility at 48th & Belmont. It only takes a minute to stop by the convalescent center for a visit. Gardening volunteers and people who want to volunteer with residents are always welcomed. While you are there, Chuck and his daughter Lisa, Don and his staff can give you great advice on services and resources that make some of the most challenging care decisions a lot more bearable. [...] JaCivas will go to great lengths to create baked treats and chocolate confections that you just can’t get anywhere else. JaCivas isn’t just a bakery and candy shop. On Friday and Saturday nights 5-10 p.m. they are also one of the most romantic places to go for their After Dark Dessert House. Kids are welcome any time (and loved up well by the staff). Call or stop by for special orders and give a big hello to owner’s Iva, Jack and their daughters from the Swap Shop. 4733 SE Hawthorne Ave (503) 234- 8115 [...] Scott Buntin is a great resource for figuring out what combination of adding memory or a larger hard drive and/or newer software will get your computer sped up and caught up to modern times – or at least fit for the kids – with some helpful advice on what to get next. Best of all, once you pick from all your options, he’ll do the install of both hardware and software. He’ll also do data recovery, virus clean ups and wireless set up. Not to exceed quotes by phone before you even get started and free consults every Wednesday and Saturday morning at Tabor Space coffee shop and gathering place at the corner of 55th and Belmont. [...] We are grateful to have Dr. Rebecca Kuperstein, the only orthodontist in inner southeast, right in our same Swap Shop neighborhood just a block off of Laurelhurst Park at 539 SE 39th. Since there are some bite alignment issues that can but don’t always get noticed by a general dentist, first visits are best made by 7 or 8 years old. An early consult can let you know what to expect down the road and maybe even save you the cost and your child the discomfort of bigger corrective measures later on.
