Yeah. She’s excited about bunk beds at college too.

The last 6 years have flown by. I can only imagine how quickly the next 6/12/18 will. I’ll try to enjoy them all and learn as much as I can.

COLLEGE! I do understand…I went to Kid A’s 5th grade “graduation” today. The next 6 years will FLY. Just like with technology (and change,) we all gotta keep reading and learning and stay flexible. Be ready for the next big thing!

Thank you. It’s been a sad couple of weeks. But she wouldn’t want me to stay sad so I won’t.

I was able to hang out with her on Saturday for a few hours. I’m glad I did.

Sorry to hear of the loss of your grandmother. I was very close to my grandmother too (we had a standing Thursday AND Saturday lunch/shopping dates for many years.) When she died at 91 I was devastated, even though I knew her health was not good.

Its hard to be happy about the good times (like my grandmother got to know her great-grandchildren very well, and loved it when they were naughty!)when you miss someone so profoundly. I bet your grandmother was very proud of you too.

He probably is…

You know what I really like about that woman’s post? The responses. They were overwhelmingly pro-library.

I still need to work on my elevator pitch though…

The lady who wants to reduce library branches/hours/whole enchilada does not get the information access AND INSTRUCTION aspect of what a good library does. She also must be against having positive community space for people to meet and greet enlightenment, entertainment and each other. She reads her Kindle alone. Her husband bought it for her to get her to read more and bother him less. He’s at the library right now, meeting his girlfriend.

I could have used it. My first day back was rough. I wanted to take a nap under my desk.
