2022 AND BACK TO WORK! YAY! Been back for a while now. Had to wear masks for a while, but not any more. Worked with the library now for nearly 12 yrs. and several months ago got my own office. Hope my mind continues to stay sharp, and I can still walk in an upright position for a few more years. Ha Ha
Still off work at my library. Worked for a month in October, and then we had to close again due to a rise in cases of Covid in out County. I'm so bummed. Miss my friends there and just working with the books. :(
How I miss looking at books on shelves. Been off work at my library since the middle of March, and since the library is still closed due to the Corona virus, I won't be going back until mid July. Can't wait!
I've worked three HARD puzzles in a row, and my brain and eyes are now officially fried. Work at my local library three days a week, so this is what I see and straighten up, or put the books away, continually. Sounds like a complaint, but it's really not. I love working there.
I will be seeing these exact shelves tomorrow, as I work in a library! Love, love, love my job. I think its because of a connection to the patrons who come into our library, and also the children who come on the days I'm working and will give me big hugs.
I love the library
before my great grandson started school I kept him
he liked going to the library
when he had to return a book he would cry
he loved the movie Johnny goes fishing
when it had to be discarded they saved it for him
I paid $1.00 for it
he is 23 and still has it

Sweet memory dbnc2, thanks for sharing it. I feel it's important to introduce children to books and hope they will have a lifelong love of reading. It helps their brain grow along with their vocabulary.

Dear memory! You never know what will appeal to a child --- and become a life-long attachment.

I loved working in the local library during college summers and vacations --- especially the children's department.
I have a puzzle in a very expensive case (gift) behind my sofa and I haven't been able to finish it for over a year. A simple Christmas Santa and parcels. Hope I have better luck when I try once again to finish it. Wish me luck.

I had moments, too, but separating the white-line shelf pieces helped. I do the dynamic cut, so it always takes longer, but this one took me quite awhile until I had the four shelves pieced put together. After that, it was easier.
I have very fond memories of being read to as a child and sharing Sunday morning "Let's Pretend" on the radio with my older sister and the Sunday comics. Then, later in the day, I'd take the paper out to the front steps and some of my neighborhood friends would come over, and I'd pretend to read the comics to them!
My husband and I have a library of approx. 1800 books, some in bookcases out in the garage. Even our closets have books up on the shelves. One of my favorite Facebook posts was, "I've got to clean the house today. Oh! Wait! Here's a book! " LOL

I did go back to it later in the day and managed to finish it. And I wish luck to everyone who is dealing with a particular difficult puzzle. Blessings!
