Monday night is our Open House/Silent Auction at the library. I’ve been decorating… trying to make that silk purse out of old Christmas decorations/sow’s ear.

Calendar Lessons
Well, lesson learned. I didn’t keep promoting my little calendar contest… and also, I seemed to make it too hard as well! But you can’t change the rules afterwards, can you? Nevertheless, I’d like to thank those who *did* read and follow the rules, which were: *go to my calendar, and check out the photo…
