LJ Idol Week 1 - Saying Goodbye
When the phone rang, I was busy. Well, not really busy, I was just reading on the couch, but in my freshly-graduated mind, I was too busy to be disturbed. I’d just started a new job. After a day of straightening shelves and chasing kids around the children’s section of the library, all I wanted to do was relax with my book, drink a glass of cheap ( Read more... ) -
LJ Idol Week 0 - Introduction
So...I used to be a total hedonist. At one time my motto was "If it feels good, do it," but a husband and two children have tempered that. Now it's more like, "If it feels good, and won't hurt anyone else, or give me a headache in the morning, I'll do it...on the weekends...if I don't fall asleep putting the kids to bed..."

My Husband Said...
...not to share this story with anyone but librarians, but I am sure y'all will appreciate it too!
So, a few minutes ago I was cruising Facebook and adding some groups and I did a search to see if there was a group for the book "The Scarlet Letter." There was not, so then I searched Nathaniel Hawthorne. No group there either, but several people have ( Read more... ) -
Thoughts on a Wild Month Part 3 - New Home in an Old Hometown
So, it was probably cruel of me to have left you with that last taste of our moving experience because these recollections are from like a month ago and things have certainly improved since then!

Her teacher told me their first day was August 11th.
