Kinda Exhausted

Had a nice day today. Met Sis and Rafe at the traffic circle antique stores; we had a nice "brunch" and then did some wandering. Rafe didn't stay with us very long; he had some stuff he wanted to look at in the Army/Navy store and then went off to other places. Sis and I went through all the "usual" stores and had our typical antique store conversation. We laughed and got grossed out by the awful pictures in the scary cookbooks (some of them are really scary). We were horrified by what some people considered art. We found the required roosters, Doughboys, Big Boys and Nancy Drew books (ALL true antique stores carry these items). We wondered at the thought that "Harry Potter" books are considered antiques. Stopped for a cold drink and a brownie at Starbucks before continuing on to more stores. All in all, we spent about 5 hours before splitting up to head home.

I stopped off at Staters for light bulbs, shampoo and conditioner. Also grabbed some chicken and mac salad for dinner. Home to Ravelry, reading, tv and - later - a shower. Exciting day? Not really. But - it was nice and I enjoyed it, which is the important thing. Now I'm sitting on the couch, with the cat curled up next to my hip.
