I’m here at this place on Mondays. It’s because my library’s administration couldn’t be bothered to make logical decisions based on locations and populations and instead took the easy way out by “letting” the managers figure it out on their own. It will likely be this way forever until my branch closes for a remodel…
I’m back at home with my child again this week due to a second quarantine from his school in less than a month.
After a tough day, I am noticing, enjoying, and especially grateful for my brugmansia plant right now.
So I keep hearing that some parents are hesitant about getting their kid a covid vaccine. Well, that is not my reality.
