Frozen

Oops, can't go to storytime this morning. The car doors are frozen shut.

Packing Peanut Butter (and Other Things)

I did a lot of holiday community service work today -- had so much fun. We lifted boxes packed with soup cans and jars of peanut butter (the boxes of peanut better were so pretty -- with all its brightly colored lids; although the peanut butter boxes were quite astoundingly heavy) and sugar and flour and stuffing mix and corn and baked beans ...



I loved it. Tomorrow I get to play pseudo-librarian while the regular librarian at my library reads books to storytime attendees. After that is the really fun part -- my playtime with the kids.



My weeks have been extremely busy since ... maybe ... October-ish, when I started babysitting regularly. Of course, they've been a lot busier since I got out of the hospital.

Oh, and here's a picture of Nina. I just wish I could get a bit closer on her face. She was with me all the time in the hospital.
