17 Days Left

There are only 17 day left in the school. It's hard to believe that we are almost at the end of an other school year, and with this there are a lot of things happening at the school were I volunteer.

We just had the spring book fair, were I got to pick out books for all the kids in school. (There is church that meets in the school building on Sundays that buys the books for the kids.) The kid get their books when all their library books are turned in for the year.

This is also the time of year when you get to see just how many books are in the library. I will be able to see how I need to reorganize the spinner rack, were we keep the more popular series. For example I am not sure if I have the right of room for the "Dairy of a wimpy kid" series right now. All the copies are normally checked out and when they are checked in it is never for very long. It's not uncommon for them to never make it to the spinner rack they are check out again so quickly.

With the end of the school year also means summer reading is coming. We are having a "Egyptian Pyramid Reading Quest" for our summer reading program. But the current log sheets don't have enough time for the kids to log all there hours needed. So I well be making a new log sheet today to make sure it is ready to go home with kids.

I have also been thinking about applying for a library clerk job. It would mean going back to work full time, so there are lots of factor involved. I am healthy and that is one of the biggest factor. I also I am on the right combo of meds were I don't feel like I have to take a nap everyday. Not that I wouldn't take a nap if I can, I just don't feel the need to alway take one.

Since it is way past my bedtime I am going to end this post for now but look for and update on the garden soon.

How to irrigate the garden

One of my garden project that I been working on is: How to irrigate the garden. In the Texas summer heat vegetables need lots of water everyday. And I am already under water restrictions. I can only use a sprinkler head or system two days a week. And it also not the most efficient way to water the garden. And I wanted an idea that I could use recycled materials. After some searching on the Internet. I found IcePop-Drip-Irrigation . The short version: A frozen water bottle wrapped with a mylar chip bag. (Because I am anal about what I eat and about recycling. Both water bottles and chip bags are not some thing you find a lot of in my house. But it amazing what you can find at your local construction site.) I did change one thing to suit me and the garden better. I have a lot of more plants to water and it will be and early morning chore. So I drilled holes in the lids. Now I can just set them out in the garden and I don't have to wait for daylight. Hand Update: It is healing an...

One Hand

lavender Being one handed has slowed me down. Like how to write this post without the computer keyboard and I don't own a smartphone. But as you can see I figured out a way. The thing that gets to me the most is that I can't walk pace or jog. The doctor said no and it painful. Thankfully there is still yoga that I can do. I switched to little projects that can be done one handed. And there are plenty of them.  Since I put building the garden on hold. It has gone through a whole redesign. Before I was hoping to have room to grow a few extra plants and now I will have plenty of room. Check out My Garden page to see the redesign and other updates on the garden. The best thing over the weekend was. Having a friend come over to help me out with my housecleaning. She sweep, mopped, emptied the dishwasher, loaded the dishwasher, wiped down the counters and sweep the stairs. It was so nice to have them done. They were all things that needed to be done.

No Internet

This is not the post that I was planning on writing but it's the fast way to tell everyone. For now I have no Internet at home. When I moved into my current home there was only one cable provider in the area. The service was never great I have always had problems. So after three years of spotty service and paying too much for it, I was done. Unfortunately there is still only one cable and internet provider in my area. So I am taking a break for now. I have been able to deal with out tv just fine and I am not going to get cable back. I have netflix so I can still watch lots of movies. And when I have internet I can find most of the tv programs that I like online. The lack of Internet is getting to me and I will have to turn it back on but I am not in any hurry. I got an email from them saying I owe them $1559. Now I know that this not true because I had my equipment picked up and he gave me all the paper work and I owe them $59.98. Now I do have my iPad and there is wifi around so ...
