Seeing change

Today was a good day, I realized just how much of a difference I've made as the kids are taking out more books, listen to me and just connecting. It takes time to get the trust and respect of kids and I'll leave with it and knowing I can get it. I want to hold onto that.

In productive news, I finally did a post on my librarian blog about gaming, its Searching for Balance: gaming in the library.

Also my horoscope from Uncle Rob is just what I need to read. I will not expend my energy on those who don't see me. Instead I will stretch my job net wide, step out of my comfort zone and find a place where I'll be happy.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): "I need not sell my soul to buy bliss," says a
character in Charlotte Bronte's 19th-century novel *Jane Eyre.* "I have an
inward treasure born with me, which can keep me alive if all extraneous
delights should be withheld, or offered only at a price I cannot afford to
give." This would be a great speech for you to memorize and periodically
recite in the next two weeks. Do it in front of your mirror at least once a
day to remind yourself of how amazingly resourceful you are. It will also
help you resist the temptation to seek gifts from people who can't or
won't give them to you.
