B means ...

Today is brought to you by the letter B...

Blood test today, I see the doctor on Tuesday. Expecting good news. Instead of taking a half day off, I just might take the whole day, with my schedule, I would come in to teach one regular class, have two classes checking out books and then my lunch and prep. It would be just as easy to ask the teachers to check out books on Wed. and get some Rutgers work done here in the morning.

Biographies... I found a roll of spine label graphics that show biographies, what a great way for the kids to recognize what they are looking for! So far I have the biographies up to the "c"'s done. It goes pretty fast, peel and stick the label, cover it with book tape to hold it there, back on the shelf.

Books... Monday is Read Across America Day, my Library Assistants are going to visit every elementary classroom first thing in the morning to read a Dr. Seuss book to the kids, those who are young or resource readers have a Rider University fraternity member assisting them. In the middle of the day, the superintendent is coming to read to two groups and at the end of the day more Rider guys and St. Francis Medical Center volunteers are going to read, too. It should be a pleasant way to spend the day both for staff and kids. And once its over, for librarians, too! It has been in the planning stages since November, there have been so many agreeing to come then pulling out, some how some way it will all come together - it always does.

Boucle - I'm knitting a nice shawl for my secret pal in a green and blue variegated boucle for St. Patrick's day - or I may end up buying her something green and keeping this for me, its so soft and cuddly.

Beautiful - the past two mornings the sunrises have been spectacular, the moon is out at the same time ~ if I wasn't driving I'd be standing outside in awe.

Bye Bye

A is for...

Taking a cue from Fluffy Knitter Deb, I'm going to use the alphabet on my posts and see how that works, this week, obviously, introduces the letter A

Absentmined - While filling the washer I was reading a new magazine and for some reason put the mag in the washer with all my dark school clothes. Don't try this at home, boys and girls! On the plus side, shopping!!! hmmm



A lot of fun - went to lunch with some my classmates from Rutgers. What a great time!
Great Friends!

Adorable - my puppies, 'nough said
