Today I’m grateful:
1. For figuring out something kind of cool on the guitar tonight.
2. That my calluses are DEFINITELY coming back, much more quickly than I could have expected.
3. For the great conversations I had with kids about books today. There are some scary-good young readers out there, including one kindergartner who plows through everything in sight and reads aloud to her older brother (who doesn’t like to read as much, but likes his little sis to read to him :). So. Awesome.
4. For the several moms I met today who were so excited about the free movies we show in summer. Probably the easiest program I’ve done so far, but they love ‘em. With the cost of movies and the tightness of incomes these days, it’s a bigger deal than usual.
5. That tomorrow’s FRIDAY!

Today I’m grateful:
1. That the medium-large frustration from yesterday is on its way to being resolved, hopefully.
2. That summer reading is going like gangbusters! We are going through goodie bags like mad, and the library has been hoppin’ every day.
3. For story hour! I was really missing story hour. It’s nice to be doing it again.
4. That the kids REALLY loved yesterday’s program. So much so that one little story hour girl interrupted me today just to say, “Miss Nicole! Miss Nicole! That puppet show is still in my HEAD!”. Awesome.
5. For the nice driver that let me turn left on the way home from work today. A tiny thing, but it made my evening better.

Today I’m grateful:
1. That I did not freeze up with worry and annoyance when a medium-large but ultimately unimportant frustration arose today.
2. For my guitar! Yay!
3. For a really excellent, successful children’s program today.
4. For the great volunteer who just walked in the door yesterday! She was super-helpful.
5. For my extremely rewarding job – even though it’s tiring, I always feel like I’ve done something worthwhile by the time I go home.
