Saturday in the sun

The sun rose today.  The sky was blue.  It didn't rain.

It was glorious.

Steve and I went desk-chair shopping, which meant sitting in rather a lot of desk chairs at the local office store.  I really liked the Lazy-Boy executive chair.  If I'd looking for a chair to nap it, I'd've snapped it up in a heartbeat.  Sadly, I occasionally fall asleep in the not-very-comfy chair I already employ, so -- the Lazy-Boy got voted off the island.

Found a Raynor Nefil Smart Motion Managers mesh chair, which was Highly Adjustable, and comfy-enough.  It was expensive and ugly, but it would probably do the trick.  I emailed its information to myself and we continued test-chairing.

After dismissing several more, both Steve and I found that we both independently liked the Tempur-pedic 8000 task chair -- more comfy than the mesh chair, not as comfy as the Lazy-Boy, with all of the adjustments available to the mesh chair -- and somewhat less expensive.  Also, while A Thing of Beauty, still a nice-enough looking piece of furniture.

Another email sent to myself, some minor office supply shopping taken care of, and out we went into the day -- which, as I have mentioned WAS NOT RAINY -- this time bound for Belanger's Drive-Through in Downtown Fairfield, where Steve and I split a warm apple crisp with vanilla ice cream while sitting at a picnic bench in the sun.

Ah.

Eventually, we came home, as one must, to a late dinner, and, having research chairs, I now believe that I'll read somebody else's book for a little while.

Hope y'all had an enjoyable and slightly lazy Saturday.

Made cookies and got acquainted with my new Kindle Fire HD 6. Now I can read those of yours I have in ebook format in more comfort than on my computer.

Went to the Farmer's Market in the RAIN. After unloading the produce, went out again to 10 yr old Cassie's soccer game, sat under a tree in the RAIN. Lunch at In n Out Burger (they stick to doing what they do, very well, and only in California). Then to 7 yr old Dylan's soccer game, for which the sun came out and the skies turned blue. Pity we only received .09 inch of rain from this, as we are still in a DROUGHT here in NorCal. We need a third of an inch to fill our rain barrels. Today is DH's 82nd birthday dinner and we'll have fish tacos at our daughter's. All in all, a good weekend. And thanks for the cat pix on the Sunday post.
