Long Time No Blog

One upon a time there was a media specialist at my middle school who started a blog about all things library. . .   and then got so busy doing all things library that she forgot blogging was one of her most favorite things.

So here we are in 2017, and I'm giving it another go.  (If it's any consolation, I've also ignored my children.  Well, not my actual children, but the blogging to chronicle the lives of my children.  My personal blog has us last celebrating St. Patrick's Day.  Three years ago.)

It's true that this job is a lot busier than I ever dreamed.

But it's also true that I have the same 24 hours a day as everyone else.  So it's time I make time for two of my biggest loves:  writing and all things library.  I'm blessed to spend my days doing what I love.  I can't wait to share that here!
