Harvest Dinner
Another year. 101 raffle items. 6 bucket raffle items. 19 live auction items. Solid action from 5:30 til 7:30. Whew. What great community support! How great to live in Ten Sleep!
Good Books, Good People
Well, I’m down in Casper attending the Wyoming Library Association meeting. Internet has been spotty, with absolutely none in my hotel room. So here I sit, in the wide main hallway at 10:30 at night, typing away on my ipad. It is always an enjoyable meeting, with great ideas to take back to Ten Sleep…
Longmire Poster for Auction
Since we did this all day, you’d think I’d post about it… But instead… I’m going to write about THIS! This is a very unique AUTOGRAPHED Longmire Country poster that we are selling to raise funds for the Friends of the Ten Sleep Library. We now are a recognized charity on eBay, meaning that we…
Lovely Day
On this Valentine’s Day… I hope you shared your love with someone! Thanks to our patrons at the Ten Sleep Library, we had a LOVELY day!
Code Name Verity
The tears fell and I had to go in search of Kleenex. It was horrible. It was soooo good. I just finished a book that held me in anticipation and suspense for most of its pages. And oh, the ending. My goodness. The Ending. That’s the Best Thing about working in a library, you can…
Library Santa
What a difference a year (or two) makes… From this: Then this: To this: Merry Christmas from the staff of the Ten Sleep Library!
We Made It
Yeah. All that about good intentions… I really thought I’d blog last night. From a motel room via email. I had a plan! Then things got all switched around, and instead of staying and spending the night… my boss and I decided to come home. In the rain. On the back road. On the back…
Library Training
I was chosen to attend a workshop at the Natrona County Library in Casper today. This is the first non-school library I can remember. As a voracious childhood reader, I finally had to expand beyond the confines of the tiny school assortment, and hit The Big Time. As a sixth grader walking into this building,…
Snowflakes
It was a crazy day at the library today… getting ready for our Open House and Silent Auction. I had purchased some new ornaments for our tree this year… I think the last ones I bought were 7, 8, 9 years ago? It’s been a while anyway. We’ve switched from maroon and gold Victorian to…
Me Money
Oooh. Yeah. Running to the chilly outside to glance at the lunar eclipse. No change yet… ugh. HURRY UP! I should be in bed… because I’m working. Like in an office/8-5/dressclothing/curledhair/jewelry/makeup kind of working. One of the girls at the Ten Sleep Library is on vacation, and I was invited back to cover for her……
Your Library
The library was packed again tonight for another fundraiser. They really only have a few each year, but it seems like more because they are so close together. I haven’t made this Open House/Silent Auction Fundraiser lately because I’ve been going to the sale barn in Riverton with the guys. I signed up to bring…
