Well happy Rainy Monday to you! I wish I could have just stayed in bed today. My rainy Monday actually began with the first crash of lightening and drum of thunder. I have this really great Golden Retriever- so cute and fuzzy and playful and big and stinky! Yeah, anyway, he is terrified of thunder and lightening. Before I even know it's going to rain he starts the whimpering. He decides that his bed is no longer comfortable and that he needs mine. Hello! Big, sweet, cute, fuzzy, stinky crybaby! It's 2:00 AM and he's crying and breathing (which is good really, I might not like his smell at all if he were not actually breathing) in my face as if it were the end of the world! I tell ya, it's like having a baby all over again... Any way, I have to comfort him or he will cry the whole night! So I am up and not getting the preferred seven to eight-and-one-half hours of required adult sleep! This sleep deprivation may affect the way I write in my blog or the way I am at work- This can not happen!
And now it's Tuesday; and raining... gee whiz... Well, the good news is that This Day, This Actual Day is the day it all began one year ago. Yes, one year ago our sleepy Lil' library re-opened it's eyes and it's doors in a brand new location! This day remembers from whence we came. The musty, dusty, sleepy little home for so many wondrous reads... The bugs and elbow-room-only spaces... I spread rumors that we had so little space for our wonderful novels that staff had to take turns balancing stacks of books on our heads. It was a colorful rumor... Novels of all types listing and swaying and teetering... Ingredients would dangle from the pages just barely hanging on... sigh... Characters would poke their heads out, threatening with gestures of nausea. The sea would spill out onto our clothes... Oh Thank YOU all! Thank you for rescuing us all! The staff, the novels, the books can BREATHE! We can all breathe!! Our new and spacious wonderful library is embraced by one and all!
I do thank you. The public made it possible. The county folks made it possible. Thank you again...
