I Heart the Library!
At the risk of sounding like a complete book nerd, I must shout out that I absolutely love the library..today. Somedays, I roam the aisles to my dismay. But today...it was very good to me. Many of my requested items came in, which is always exciting to me. I have always wanted to check out magazines from the library, but all that was on display were a bunch of recent copies, which said, "Not for check out". So I never gave it much thought. But today, after hundreds of library visits, I read the sign which read, "Lift for past issues". It was magical, I tell you...I lifted and there were about ten back issues of each magazine. How I wish I had known about this before. In my defense, I was blonde at birth, and I highly doubt that being brunette for 25 years, has made up for my 2 years of blondness. (This is all tongue in cheek, y'all.) I was sorely tempted to purchase an organizing magazine earlier today, but now I am comforted to know that I can peruse them for free. I got two scrapbooking/cardmaking magazines, a natural health magazine, a Rachael Ray cooking magazine (being the cooking diva that I am...not) , and a Homeschooling Today magazine. I am so hoping that one of the local library branches has the Old Schoolhouse magazine. I so enjoy reading an enjoyable magazine, in the rare, quiet moments of relaxation time. In history, the children and I are learning about Ancient Egypt, this week, so we have some fun movies and projects planned. What is your favorite thing about your library? Now, my only challenge will be keeping these lovely magazines out of the hands of a little 15 month old, who loves ripping things. Blessings!
