Dear Friends,
Is it bad to miss someone who's wronged you? Probably it's just a logical reaction to having once spent so much time with that person that even after a long time, you sort of want to overlook the shittiness and the wierdness and call them. But it's not worth the effort and I'm lazy and I'm still the same person who grew apart from them to begin with, so I know I won't. But I still feel stupid missing them all the same. Gah, I'm so cryptic it embarasses me. Sorry to the 1-3 people who actually still read this.
Out Young Adult (YA) librarian has to take her mother to MD Anderson tomorrow for some more tests (it seems anyone connected to the Friendswood library somehow contracts cancer, it's awful), so I'm filling in for her. I get to lead both the 1:30 (collage art for the 'tweens: 8-10s) and 3:30 (pick a craft for the YAs: 11-14)crafts. For 1:30 I have 2 volunteers and for 3:30 I have 1 volunteer. Also, my right hand (i.e. Cecily) is on a cruise on her way to Cancun right now so I'm totally on my own. Now, I'm not complaining, but I am a little overwhelmed--we had 30+ kids at each of our Wednesday crafts. So...wish me well with the kids and the scissors and the glue... :)
On a much sadder note, Sunny (our golden retriever) mostly has cancer. Since chemo would only help for about 4 months and wouldn't cure her, I don't think we'll be taking that route, in fact I'm not sure what we're doing--besides showering her with love and lots of treats.
But...baby Iva and her big brother Andy came in to visit today! And the little boy who bade me find him 'fish books' last week also came in. And he remembered me! He let me know that he had turned all of the fish books back in and that he enjoyed them. :) Babies make me happy.
well, I'm clean and drowsy I may just go read myself to sleep.
Love,
Sti
