Carpe Diem...

Oof. What a day...

• Breakfast (pancakes, eggs, and Canadian bacon) prepared, cooked, and served to my wife's aunt & her husband visiting from CA.
• Lawn subdued, tamed, trimmed, and raked - it had been about three weeks since it was last mowed, because it's been raining all weekend every weekend since we got back from FLA
• Camper has two new tires installed. At some point last year I either hit a curb or a pothole that took a chunk out of the sidewall of one of the tires. That tire was turned into the spare, as it still held air but I just didn't trust it. Later, a roofing nail punctured another tire (which I discovered the day before we left for our weeklong trip, of course). The patch didn't hold - the hole was too big - so that tire needed to be replaced as well.
• Errands run - we have a Christening gift for my newest nephew, and TheBoy has some new books to read. We passed by a bookstore in the mall when we were going to get the nephew's gift (a silver bank shaped like a train with his name engraved on it, if you must know), and we just about fell over ourselves when he asked if we could go in and he could get a book. Plus I picked up my first Terry Pratchett novel...
• Dinner out, followed by ice cream at the local shop. Nom nom nom.

This day wasn't just seized, it was wrestled to the ground and choked into submission...

That is all.
