catching up a bit

I am nearing two months without a post and have heard about it from several people! I'm sorry. I will try to catch you up quickly. I have 10 minutes left on supper break.

Yes, I'm at work. The only time I have online is when I am at work. When you spend 30 hours a week in the library, who wants to go back to the library again off the clock to blog? Don't get me wrong, I like my job! It is perfect for me, at least at this point in my life.


Here are some ideas of things I do at work: (someone requested that I give more details)


I sit at my computer (yeah, I have my own desk and computer!) while I :

1. create posters/flyers for various programs we have... such as... Funky Physics, Llama Fiber Craft Day, Lapsit, Family Movie Night, Teen Advisory Group activities, Teen Technology Celebration, etc. (those are a few examples from the month of March)


2. brainstorm, plan, and schedule said programs


3. prepare everything for our Summer Reading Program... such as... make solicitation phonecalls, send emails, order prizes, PR, decorations, programming for summer, etc.


4. plan everything for Teen Advisory Group, better known as TAG. I am the director of this group whoohoo! So I plan meetings, agendas, activities, send emails to members, make phonecalls, help lead book discussions (they do it mostly on their own), and so much more! I really like the chance to interact with the teens. A lot of them stop by the office to say hey when they are in the library aside from scheduled meetings.

to name a few.

..................

Well, the previous part took longer than 10 minutes so I saved it. Surprise surprise, I actually came to work today early just so I could spend some time online and blog. It is kinda hard to concentrate and type though when there are people all around and sitting on either side of me. I feel like they are watching me lol. Not likely, I know. But I know that the lady on my left has been playing webkinz the whole time I've been here. (I thought that was for kids! lol) And the lady on my right just got here and is checking her banking account and emails. No, I'm not nosy. I can't help but notice. And no, I didn't read her emails or account information lol.

So where was I? Who knows!

Life is good. I enjoy living with my two roommates. We help each other grow, encourage each other, sometimes 'discuss' ;) things, and mostly just have a good time. I am making a lot of memories.

Aside from work and apartment life I do have other friends that I spend time with. Some more than others ;) I feel truly blessed.

I'm excited that Spring is here! I am enjoying the warmer weather, and also the rain.

I honestly cannot think of anything else to share. So I'm going to stop rambling now. I still have almost an hour until I work so maybe I will read a book.
