done moving, and of course, sick!

got most of the stuff we need moved out of the other apt. and out of storage, and of course we are all now ill with some sort of respiratory thing. hack, cough, choke. huh, huh...aaahhhchoooo. cough, choke, sputter. that's how it goes boys and girls. dead dog tired, even when taking all my vitamins, in bed by 10:30, sleep till 6:30, still dead tired.
new job is awesome though! door count of over 1000 a day! helped a patron today with a report on a person, of course, small branch, no book on said person, but...online databases to the rescue! in less than 5 minutes I had a bio of said person printed out for the patron. Mom, patron, sis, bro and all were pleased to be done and on their way, and no waiting for the computers (an hour wait, at that time of day). Yeah me! If you think this was "doing their work for them" go read Rick Andersen's presentation "Always a river, sometimes a Library". he's from u. of nevada-las vegas. then go check out the "tame the web" post titled ten tech things for librarians to be aware of. This is the future of library service, and the folks will be much more likely to come back since their experience was fast, pleasant, and to the point.
back to knitting again after being out of it for a bit. working on a baby dress in inca alpaca, it's soooo soft! also working on a big teddy bear for little Baby Dailey! Shhh! Don't tell Jill and Derek! I'm sooooo glad I'm finally going to be an auntie! I can't wait! it's very nearly as good as being a mom again myself, of course without the lack of sleep and dirty diapers.
Below you can see the new "night" light we got for Patrick's room, it throws moons stars and planets up on the walls and ceiling! Very cool! and there's the boy himself, sitting at his desk under his bed, all ready to do some homework!
