HAPPY THURSDAY!


For lack of a better title...it is what it is! Today was a day off for me, no subbing. You know the economy is in a bit of trouble when there's a hiring freeze on substitutes...wow. It's not the most glamorous job, but apparently there's a waiting list to do it. Again, wow. We are getting ready to head out to the library--the whole family! I used to take the kids at least once a week, especially in the summer months when being outside in Phoenix is not an option, unless you're not fond of your skin. It's a rarity now days for them to come with me during the school year, and to have hubby there too is quite cool! The library has always been one of my favorite places. I feel like a kid in a candy store surrounded by all those potential reads!

I love the family pictures! It fills the gaps between Chridtmas and Christmas! Keep it up!

Hey Lori I have tried several times to change your address but it keeps putting up the other one so I don't know what to do. Maybe someday I will figure it out. Cute pictures!

I just love to go in and smell all those books. That sounds weird. I mean, I don't go around SMELLING the books, it's just the smell of the library. I'm going to stop now.

I know what Cami is talking about. For some reason your blog's address defaults to "ashotofespresso" and I have to go back in to type the "double" part by hand and click send to get to your site. I keep meaning to drop a note to the webmaster or whatever it's called to draw their attention to the problem, but you know what they say about good intentions...

I too love the library. It is sad to me that with the internet libraries seem to be a thing of the past. I actually make my daughter go to the library to do reports so she will know how we used to have to get information!

I am a huge library fan.

Especially old ones.

I attended the Univ. of OK for a semester before transferring to USC, and the library there was amazing...old crooked staircases and everything!

I LOVE the library! Ever since I watched Beauty and the Beast I have had huge dreams of a gorgeous book filled library in my house. Ladder and all! Maybe one day.

I'm with you on the bookaholic thing. I swear I start to drool and my eyes get misty everytime I walk into a Barnes and Noble! I laughed at your comment about your dog swearing like a sailor...pretty funny. Thanks for dropping by my blog. I love the company!
