- Monday
- Jess gone, cleaning up from Festival, cleaning off desk, how can there be so much stuff on my desk when I was only here last Friday?? Pearl couldn't make it today, still no attendees at the Autism support group, but we'll try some more publicity. More summer planning.
- Tuesday
- Third grade field trip (2 classes)
- OPtions summer presentation
- I let the third graders and homeschoolers check out books from the presentation, since they are the last groups. I wasn't sure I could use up all the time for the third graders, especially since they were so squirrelly, but they didn't want to leave! Board meeting for OPtions in the afternoon.

- Friday
- Family Camp-Out
- I came in late, did some random things, did the camp-out, and went home.
- Saturday
- Safety Shower (Pattie)
- Summer reading officially begins. I left early and got ice and refreshments for the knitters and doughnuts for the staff (and me). Pattie handed out stuff and was awesome in the lobby and I signed people up for summer reading in the library and got a few random things done. Working on my sewing samples for the maker workshop too. Pretty quiet day.

We just this year moved all of the kids graphic novels to the end of the range. So far so good!
