Another Day of Rest ...

Or ... another day of the rest of my life after Nanowrimo ...

I puttered all day ... it was one of those grey sodden days that do not inspire much ... so I organized a bit of my contact list ... and baked a sponge cake for Saturday's do ... and sorted out some financial stuff ... and looked at the baby sweater pieces I need to put together before Chelsea outgrows the sweater ... and pasted some photos in the book I am making to keep a record of my funky furniture ... and made a couple of phone calls and fielded a few emails ... and Kenya and I went for a walk.

But really it was a wasted day ...

I watched The Thin Red Line ... that is a tough movie ...

We are going to meet a new puppy on Sunday.  That will be fun.  This dog owner has a friend on the lake and is making sure she has a place for her new puppy to stay if she has to leave her without much notice.

The best news of the day is that Pat is due to be released soon.

And the very gratifying news I received today via Zoom's knitnut.net  blog  (see my side bar) was that we have both been nominated for best personal blog in the Canadian Blog Awards.  I am more than astounded ... and very grateful to whomever of my faithful readers nominated me.  Thank you very much.  If you go to Zoom's blog ... http://knitnut.net on the side bar, you can find out who else has been nominated and also how to vote. 

All the best to all the bloggers whose blogs have been nominated, and for all you blog readers, that's a good place to disover some new blogs you might want to take a look at.  I'm going to do that tomorrow when I have some energy to spare.
