One month

It’s been one month since my last post – an unplanned hiatus, and a rather long one.  I know it would have been far more polite to have posted a little note saying something like, “This blog will be on vacation for one month,” but, truly, I didn’t really intend to be silent this long.  And, unlike some blog vacations, this hiatus wasn’t because I was burned out, but rather because for once I wasn’t burned out.  Last year was a loooong, tough year, with lots of evening tutoring and seemingly endless hours of my free time spent creating lesson plans for all those new storytimes, on top of the sometimes painful adjustment period of the first full school year in our new on-the-school-campus library building.  Frankly, when July hit and I wasn’t madly making storytime plans, and I wasn’t out tutoring most every weeknight, and school wasn’t in session, I finally took a deep breath and relaxed.  Lots of evening meals out on our deck (when the rain held off, of course) and much needed and much enjoyed quality time with my husband.  Not to forget all those home improvement projects that we indulge in during the summer (our living room is finally painted!  as are our kitchen and our foyer!  woo-hoo!).

So what’s been going on?  Tune in again tomorrow for the first of a series of posts on what happened over the summer, and what will be happening at the library this school year…

  1. Will you be posting pics of inside and outside of the house? I miss seeing its progress! But I’m glad you took the time off. Everyone needs downtime.

  2. Hi Liz!
    And we missed having you come visit this summer!
    I’ll try to take some photos, and if they actually show the new paint job, then I’ll post them…great idea!
