i am obsessed with books
i mean, obsessed
whenever I feel the need to change my life, I just buy a book on what it is I want to do :)
my house is over run by them & I am running out of places to stash them
don't suggest giving you any, because I could never let them go :)
I have disappeared from the 365 once again (it's so HARD!) But really intend to (*try) to reconcile
motivation, please? :)
I have also slacked on the creativity (I think the holiday's & stress of this SERIOUS month has put me unda') so here's hoping I will get back into the groove this week

In this program, Loyola students provide much-needed services to New Orleans youth in need of positive role models and mentors. Photos taken on November 12, 2013.
This young girl was getting riding lessons from her mother. I'm thinking the seat was too low and perhaps a riding lesson when you might fall shouldn't be done in a dress! Her mother was very patient and the girl was a good sport!
He has on his bob skates and his little helper and is off to the races. He had a great time.
It shouldn't surprise anyone who knows us that our son is being molded for the NHL. But, don't you fret... I'm molding him for Harvard as well. ;-)
Into the distance, a ribbon of black
Stretched to the point of no turning back
A flight of fancy on a windswept field
Standing alone my senses reeled
A fatal attraction holding me fast, how
Can I escape this irresistible grasp?
Cant keep my eyes from the circling skies
Tongue-tied and twisted just an earth-bound misfit, i
Ice is forming on the tips of my wings
Unheeded warnings, I thought I thought of everything
No navigator to guide my way home
Unladened, empty and turned to stone
A soul in tension thats learning to fly
Condition grounded but determined to try
Cant keep my eyes from the circling skies
Tongue-tied and twisted just an earth-bound misfit, i
Friction lock - set.
Mixture - rich
Propellers - fully forward
Flaps - set - 10 degrees
Engine gauges and suction - check
Mixture set to maximum percent - recheck
Flight instruments...
Altimeters - check both
(garbled word) - on
Navigation lights - on
Strobes - on
(to tower): confirm 3-8-echo ready for departure
(tower): hello again, this is now 129.4
(to tower): 129.4. its to go.
(tower): you may commence your takeoff, winds over 10 knots.
(to tower): 3-8-echo
Easy on the brakes. take it easy. its gonna roll this time.
Just hand the power gradually, and it...
Above the planet on a wing and a prayer,
My grubby halo, a vapour trail in the empty air,
Across the clouds I see my shadow fly
Out of the corner of my watering eye
A dream unthreatened by the morning light
Could blow this soul right through the roof of the night
Theres no sensation to compare with this
Suspended animation, a state of bliss
Cant keep my eyes from the circling skies
Tongue-tied and twisted just an earth-bound misfit, i
I'm learning to fly but I ain't got wings
Coming down is the hardest thing
Well, the good ol' days may not return
And the rocks might melt and the sea may burn
I'm learning to fly but I ain't got wings
Coming down is the hardest thing
(Lyrics from Tom Petty 'Learning to fly')
Roadtested several times this last week and various adjustments made in readiness for MOT test (very soon I hope)
University Librarian John Ulmschneider talks with students during the reception after the ribbon cutting.
I think she was too young for school (in China, school starts at age 6) so she was getting a head start on reading on her own practising from pages ripped out of a book she probably found in the garbage.

Our son is addicted to hockey. We took him out 4 times this winter on the outdoor rink. He spent a lot of his time on his butt like in this photo but his eyes would light up everytime he saw the hockey players playing and would tell anyone who would listen "hockey!". He loves it at the rink.

At first glance, Twitter might appear to be just one of many online attention drains. But tweeting often proves surprisingly practical. A number of WU Libraries staff are among those who think so, and an upcoming series of free workshops will help interested members of the WUSTL community explore why.
Titled Twitter 201, the free miniseries is open to all students, faculty, and staff, with three 40-minute sessions on different topics to be held the last Thursday of the month in February, March, and April (Olin Library, Arc Presentation Room, Level A). Register to attend one, two, or all three of the sessions:
* During the first session (4 p.m. Thursday, Feb. 23), librarians Erin Leach and Brian Vetruba will discuss Twitter as a way to develop professionally and foster meaningful professional connections. Twitter has become a valuable networking tool for professionals in a variety of disciplines. It can be used to start conversations with “the experts,” to get help with a tricky professional problem, and to follow conference activities.
* The second workshop (4 p.m. Thursday, March 29) will focus on how writers and readers can tackle Twitter. Staff members Evie Hemphill and Tim Lepczyk use Twitter to share ideas, find inspiration, engage with authors and editors, and keep their writing sharp. The new salon is a hashtag away and open to everyone.
* The third session (4 p.m. Thursday, April 26) aims to help participants understand the power of the 140-character tweet. Librarians Jaleh Fazelian and Makiba Foster will lead a discussion of Twitter’s instrumental role as an unlikely galvanizing tool in various national and global movements. The revolution will not be televised, but it will be tweeted. From Iran to Wall Street, from Tunisia to Egypt, Twitter was and is a part of these recent revolutions.
In addition to the Twitter 201 series, an introductory Twitter 101 session is scheduled for 3 p.m. Thursday, February 9. Geared for the Twitter novice, this hour-and-a-half session will cover account creation, search features, what it means to follow someone, how to construct a tweet, what hashtags and retweets are, and other Twitter basics.
