A Sort of Lazy Saturday

Today I had the luxury of sleeping in - thanks Dwayne!  Dwayne is at the shop doing some maintenance on the 4Runner and the kiddos and I are hanging out at home.  We're still fighting colds so we've been trying to lay low a bit.  Today we've done a bit of laundry, turned on the dishwasher, and are about to go and count our recycling outside.  This evening we plan to go to the museum for a family bonfire.  Should be fun!  Which reminds me, I better go and charge the camera battery.  Then I can still take pictures, even if we won't be able to post them for a few more weeks.  I hope your Saturday is going well wherever you are! :)

House planning

Well, we are trying to decide whether or not to build a new house or build an addition on to our existing house.  Right now, we are leaning towards the latter.  Less time and energy to get it done and get moved in!  I have house plans in my brain right now.  I'm always on the lookout for ideas.  Our lovely local bookstore is changing hands next week, and as such, the current owner is trying to sell as much inventory as possible before the sale of the store.  A visit yesterday yielded a happy surprise - all books 50% off!  YIPEE!  I purchased a few books that I had been drooling over for a while.  Here are some of the books I've been perusing lately.  Some bought yesterday, some not!
