Loving Libraries

My love of public libraries has been nurtured from a young age. Our library was small, but we’d visit fairly regularly.

Giving Thanks…

For the past couple of years, I’ve been really trying to focus on gratitude.  My default demeanor is cranky and pessimistic, so I started making an effort to write three things I’m thankful for in my diary every morning. It got very boring until my friend Ona told me I wasn’t allowed to repeat the …
