It’s a busy few weeks at the Ten Sleep Library and seeing as how I was recently elected president of the Friends of the TSL… I’m busy promoting. First I gave a Pysanky class… Ukrainian egg decorating… and charged $5 to benefit the Friends. It was a good time, with 10 participants and just as…

Valentine Volunteer
Someone took a little valentine to their little library. Someone giggled at the size of the little valentine. Someone hoped that the message would be heard by every patron and they would join the Friends of the Ten Sleep Library. Someone hoped that every person would find something to believe in and VOLUNTEER their time,…
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…
Panic and White Knuckles
I don’t know if I should title this entry, “Panic” or “White Knuckles”. After falling asleep while trying to watch the National Finals Rodeo… I awoke to a dog’s snuffling nose at my bedside. Grabbing ten more seconds of warmth, I tossed back the covers and glanced at my windows. No rim of frost. Good….
It’s Beginning to Look a Lot Like…
I managed to have a dream job of mine today… My Christmas Decorator license was used to its full extent! The wreath that I’ve been creating a few ornaments for, was finished by five volunteers today. I did my wheat weaving, painted jingle bells, and fake birchbark ornaments. We also had boiled wool mittens, copper…
We’re Set
I spent the morning trying to create some crafts. I’ve joined up with the Friends of the Ten Sleep Library for a fun little project. I did it years ago when I worked at the library… it’s called The Festival of Trees. Organizations decorate a Christmas tree or wreath… Businesses bid on them and display…

She would like to support the Ten Sleep Library. Watercolor B was won by J. Michael Schreiner for $45. Please…
Join in the Fun
The Harvest Dinner fundraiser… A big deal in a small town… Where we support our library and ambulance… And the churches donate the food… And volunteers work hard to set up and decorate and cook and clean… And the line goes around the school cafeteria walls… and out the door… If you don’t cook the…
The Bidding Starts NOW
OK, folks! I have my senses <such as they are> about me tonight… So… here’s my challenge for YOU, my Readers. *I believe there is an interest in Blogland for western artwork. *I am perennially a supporter of both the Ten Sleep Library and Ten Sleep Ambulance. This weekend is the biggest fundraiser for those…
Raisin’ a Little
RAIN! HONESTLY! A nice little rain hit last night and most of today. We probably are lucky if we got .5 inch, but that’s enough for Wyoming to sigh with relief… hope wildfire season is over and we might even green up a bit if the nights continue to be on the warm side! Today…
Library and Ambulance Benefit
Just in case there is an interest out there in Blogland… Annually, Ten Sleep has held a fundraiser for the Ten Sleep Library and Ten Sleep Ambulance while all the deer hunters are in town. Ten Sleep easily doubles in population this time of year… This year it will be held October 17th. Some of…
