Everything old is new again

I was re-reading old posts & came across one that showed a picture I'd altered using a website that Kelli had found. I had to try it again - here's what the library will look like in 70 years?! I just think it's really cool.

I guess that's about as crafty as I'm getting these days. There's no scrapping mojo happening in my house. When I get home from work I'm just way too tired to do more than sit in front of either the TV or the computer. I can't even read an entire book lately! Although I brought home a few for the weekend (I'm taking the next 2 days off.) Just some junk reading: Dean Koontz, Linda Howard, plus the new Miriam Toews. They're Quick Reads so I only get them for a week.

Looking forward to Lost tonight. I've started reading the Zap2it Lost blog and quite enjoy it. You know how it is with Lost, you often need some explanation! The guy who writes this blog does a fantastic job of summarizing the episodes.

No news is good news?

I guess I haven't had much to say lately. No complaints, no whining. Although yesterday when I came home from work I actually had to have a glass (or two) of wine after my day working the Children's Desk. Lucky me, the first day of spring break...

Just reinforces why I did not become a Children's Librarian. I like good kids well enough but misbehaving ones are a different story. There were a couple of kids there, maybe 9 and 5. Their mother was apparently in the building, upstairs at a meeting. So they were having a grand old time, playfighting, dragging our newly cleaned & repaired bug cushions around the department by their eyestalks & antennae, playing hide & go seek, etc. No books were involved or damaged. By the 3rd or 4th time I went to talk to them I was getting pretty impatient. Trying not to be the grumpy old librarian but it wasn't easy. I finally said if I had to talk to them one more time we'd be looking for their mom and making them leave. "Good for you!" said one old grandpa who was walking by.

On the other hand the day went by really quickly!
