Update

Sorry it's been so long since I've updated, things get a little crazy around here during the summer. Buuut, my summer programs are drawing to close so I should be making more updates here to keep you informed about things that are coming up, as well as reviews of some of the books I've been reading (I'm almost done with Gregor the Overlander!!)

But don't be too sad that the summer is almost over, I'm going to have a ton of fun things to do here at the library after school. The new brochure for the fall schedule will be out soon.

Tomorrow is Freaky Friday and I hope everyone who turned in their permission slips will be able to come!

If you're wondering what do with your time while you're waiting for school to start, you can spend part of it with me on Wednesday nights in August. I'll be showing The Emperor's New Groove and Sky High (I know most people have seen them, but I love those movies!) on August 13th and 20th at 6:30pm. I'll have popcorn and lemonade to eat and drink, so I hope you'll come join me!

See you soon!

When Harry overhears that his parents’ best friend betrayed them to Voldemort and was so angry he wanted to kill Sirius Black I cried, a lot. Besides that I thought the whole Time Turner device was really nifty on J.K.'s part (yeah, we're close, I can call her that*). I loved Lupin and the fact that chocolate is the remedy for when you've had all your worst memories brought to mind by Dementors.I also always love Scabbers so I was really sad when he turned out to be the betrayer of Lily and James Potter. Sigh. When I re-read it: January 2011 What my thoughts are now: This book is so great, I can see why it's a lot of people's favorite of the series. I mean, c'mon t...

Duct Tape Pencil Bag

 1. Gather supplies.  2. Unwrap one length of duct tape and carefully set plastic bag on top. Go slowly so there are no air bubbles in the duct tape! 3. Unwrap other color of duct tape and tape the opposite side of the bag. 4. Trim extra duct tape off. 5. Continue adding duct tape (You can do all one color on each side or alternate like I did. Trim sides so everything is even.  6. Optional, if you want to store your pencil bag in your binder, mark where the rings are located. 6. Use a hole punch to make holes. 7. Decorate with stickers or permanent markers!
