A day at the library

I treated myself and Dennis to something wonderful today: a new library card! Due to severe budget constraints, there have been no new books coming in to the house in quite a while with the exception of the new Clive Cussler that we got for David for Father's Day. I have been re-reading all my books and secretly desiring new stuff to read. Why it didn't occur to me before now to go to the local library and get a card, I have no idea. But we went this morning and Dennis discovered, to his great delight, a Thomas the Train wooden railroad table setup, where he happily entertained himself until I dragged him and his stinky diaper away kicking and screaming. He did another of those lay-down-in-the-floor-and-yell-no-thank-you fits, but I scooped him up and took him out. I only grabbed 3 books for myself on my way out, as I'll know next time to steer him past the train table first and get my own books and then let him play while I choose some for him. I checked out 4 books and a Thomas DVD for him. He's very excited.
