Call me Jane

So I decided to bake today. I am doing many home based activities these days. Painting, framing and hanging photos, re-arranging furniture. Making potato salad, pasta salads, and now baking. I do believe I am channelling my mother and have this urgent need to nest for some reason.

That and I think I nearly killed my dog today. Well perhaps the heat did - she is lying on the patio and has been there since 10am. I bought Aspen a new ball chucker thingy and keeping in mind that I forget she is nearly 12, I threw the ball for her about 28 times at her favourite park today - and she ran and ran after it and returned it like a puppy so I tend to forget she is old bones now. Must have been a combo of all that heat and her long fir but she has been panting and laying down for hours now. Excuse me while I go dump some water on the poor creature.

Oh yes, that and I have updated my resume and am sending it out on a daily basis.... time to take a deep breath and put myself out there. Nearly 6 months off now - very long vacation and I need to stimulate my brain and be with grown ups soon. Renuneration is a good thing too. I do like the money.

Off to watch the fireworks from the roof. Night!
