Nap time!

We had a fun day today. First, off to the Half-Price tent sale, where we ran into several of 's co-workers. We probably spent close to two hours there, poring over all the books. We managed to come home with 49 books – I spent about $18 and he spent about $15. We both found a couple of books we'd been looking for, so it was definitely a Good Thing™!

And, because I'm a complete and utter geek, here's what we scored:

After the bookgasm, we headed off to the vet to pick up some catfood for Pandora, then out to Lakeline Mall for no reason in particular. We had lunch at a surprisingly good and inexpensive Chinese restaurant at the mall, then wandered around for a bit.

Home again, and vegetation time. I just love these quiet, peaceful weekends at home with . :)
