What a day!

Today was such a whirlwind that even when I think back on it I still get tired! Now that the memo's officially out, I'm happy to report here that I now have a job as a Youth Services Librarian! There was a Personnel "glitch" that delayed the announcement, but now that word's out it seems that everything is happening at once.

First of all, I was amazed at the amount of congratulatory emails I received. It's nice to know that people remember who I am!

Then, I met with my new boss. Things are a bit crazy right now, the location I'll be working at just closed for painting and recarpeting. The scheduled reopening date is in early June, and I do hope that will be the case, because I've booked Sparkles the Clown as my first Summer Reading Program Performer on June 18.
My poor boss, she's having a problem with her foot and can't move well, so hopefully she'll be able to use this down time to get better.
So, I spent most of the morning trying to book SRP events. I was mildly successful and hope to have everything done by next week. Speaking of next week, I start training this coming Tuesday. That means my last day at my current location is Monday. I think I'm going to need moving boxes...
