Valentine Swap

Earlier this week I came home from work to find a box on the porch. Don't you just love that?! And this is what was inside - all from my swap partner, Terri from http://tinkerthroughtime.blogspot.com.  We had entered the Valentine's swap hosted by Vivian. 


Terri included so many beautiful things! Take a look at that trim, the sparkly hearts, and the velvet and lace.
She also made this cute little box with stickpins and charms.


Thanks so much Terri! I'm going to enjoy using and admiring all these lovelies.

Job Update - I just finished my first week at the library and I have to say I love the work, but not the hours. After being a full time mom for 25 years, I have tried several part time jobs in the last 5 years looking for the right fit. (I'm not interested in pursuing interior design, which is my college degree.) The other jobs I tried had great hours, but left me bored. So even though I have to work some weekends, I'm going to stick with it. What can I say? I love books!

Oh what sweet goodies. I am glad you like your job. We love the library. I am weird as I like the smell of all the old books.

What lovely goodies. I'm eagerly awaiting my box from my partner. I'm a former Academic librarian . I hope you continue to enjoy this career path. I have fond memories of my library life.
