    doggie

    We are inching towards making the next step in our doggie adoption process. Today we ventured to the doggie refuge(after the doggie beach) & talked to the trainers about a couple that would be compatible with Yukon. The doggie meet went well & Yukon wasn't fussed when she met Ozzie. (http://www.dogshome.org.au/medium-dogs/ he's further down the page)

    We've put ozzie on hold & will give the folks a call tomorrow about our decision. I'm now scouting out http://www.agilityclubwa.com/ in case mr ozzie comes to our home! (Might even be a thought for yukon.)

    It's 37C today & we're all inside keeping cool..On our way home from the doggie refuge our back ute tray was way too hot for doggie to be in so she enjoyed some air con

    What a coincidence, it's 37°F here right now. It turned cold all of a sudden and none of us are used to it.

    Ozzie's a good looking boy! Let us know what you decide.

    Yesterday we joined about 30 pilgrims for the last mile of their 70-mile walk between two ancient earthworks. It was very spiritual - it must've been incredible for those who made the whole journey. You could see it on their faces, a mixture of awe, serenity, joy, sadness that it was ending.

    I'm starting to get nervous about my half marathon tomorrow. Don't know why, it's not like I'm competing for a win or anything. It's just so much bigger than any race I've ever run before. 15,000 runners in the combined 26.2/13.1 start, my biggest so far is a field of 800 in a 5K. We're staying overnight tonight even though it's not that far away, just one less thing to have to worry about in the morning. Wondering what to pack for breakfast. Not sure what to wear. Planning to snag some daifuku mochi (what a wonderful excuse to eat dessert for breakfast! ) but not sure those will be enough.

    I went on mtn bike ride today. I have not been on my bike for quite a while for various reasons. Beautiful day, plenty of sun and temps in the 70. I think I want to take a nap now. I think DH and I will stay home tomorrow to do yard and house work. If we do we will use our smoker and make some ribs. Yummmm.
