New Additions!

So, obviously this library job has kept me So busy, but I absolutely love it!
I shelve books, put books in order, make and distribute library cards and lots of other Sweet things that leave me surrounded by books all day! I love it! Did I say that already?? One more time! I Love it! My co-workers and bosses are fantastic and it truly is my dream job!

Among other things, I've finished summer semester classes, maintaining my 'fabulous' GPA :) And I'll be starting my second to last round of classes this fall, which is really the week after this coming one, and which will include more English and math classes and a Spanish class! Hopefully this time the language will stick with me, as French and Sign Language did not.

For the big announcements:

Lily starts second grade the day before I start school and Lochlan will be starting kindergarten the following week!! :) He's so excited! Lily's learned to ride her bike without training wheels and is now insisting on teaching Lochlan to do the same! So Cute! I remember learning to ride my first bike training wheel free - who'd a thought I'd ever teach a little person to do it!

In addition to our rat, Thasos, whom I love and who was named after a philosopher - roughly - we also have a little kitten, Hobbes (Calvin and Hobbes) who joined us about a month ago - someone was dishing out kittens at the drum circle, and how could anyone say no to that face! :) And as of yesterday we've acquired a dog as well!! I love him! He's the exact kind I've been wanting for years! A little gray terrier with such a mellow, sweet, fun personality! His story is Awesome too! He was a stray who happened to wander into the library whilst I was working and again, who could say no! :) I've named him Hugo (Victor Hugo) ! One of my favorite authors.

What a summer! Hope yours has been as enjoyable!
