This week at the library; or, FAIRY TALE ADVENTURE

Jess made this. She has mad crafting skills.
What's going on; in my head and at the library
  • I have so many things to do. I am doing them like crazy. Luckily, I did not schedule a ton of programs this week and talked myself out of trying to do something fancy for Mad Scientists Club. ARE YOU CRAZY YOU CAN'T EVEN FIND YOUR TO DO LIST UNDER THE OTHER TO DO LISTS!!
  • Also I am getting a cold or a sinus infection or something and losing my voice and have had a low-level headache for days.
  • Fairy tale adventure went really well and we are all exhausted.
  • Lots of happiness from patrons for the Fairy Tale Adventure, some great comments from parents on Bookaneers - it's doing what I wanted it to do, bring together kids at all levels and stages of reading to have fun with books - new families coming in via four year old kindergarten outreach, and a gazillion fairy tale books checked out. All the happys!
