It's a quiet weekend for me - with D off to fancy places for his study trip and me home alone and trying to reconcile and settle into my new (working) life.

Baking for cake orders yesterday was pretty therapeutic on Fri night after a self-assessed not so good day; but the 2nd leg of the baking on Sat morning/ afternoon got somewhat out of hand and caused some temporary anxiety ha. Thankfully all went pretty well in the end and the 2nd weekend order post starting work was successfully delivered. Am in two minds about continuing with baking, esp since the new job is likely to be heavy-going, but I suppose I will just work at it for as long as I can take it!

Also had a leisurely Father's Day lunch with family, and caught up with their adventures at RWS Marine Life earlier in the week. I feel like I have been growing more emotional/sentimental with 'age' and simple pleasures like spending time and catching up with family make me feel contented and happy. Maybe it's also this desire to want to remain connected/ close despite not being physically close anymore.
