***I am a few days behind on the blog and I am going to add the date to not confuse.
I love libraries. I have loved them for as long as I can remember. I like being in a place that is filled with adventures. I remember feeling so privileged when I got my first library card. My library love has carried over into my college and adult years. In college I worked in a library and loved every minute. I have compared every job I have had since to the library and none come close to the feeling of belonging and safety I felt in that library. I have volunteered in my local library but the others there did not share my love; it ultimately was hard to keep my job and volunteer when they needed me. I still love the library though. I am there almost every week. The great thing about the local library is that it is in a system of libraries so the books are never the same, they are constantly exchanging books amongst the branches. I have been thinking about my library love a lot more now that I am unemployed. The library has allowed me to learn to cook and to get thru my parents deaths and now as I stare into the scary world of unemployment, I turned to my friend to get me thru. Off to read a few books on what to do when unemployed from my old friend the library.
