It was nice to be out and about today; we are having unseasonably warm weather this week. Work has been busy, since it is the end of the semester and it seems the students need help with papers, etc. Plus, there is a huge backlog of cataloging to work on.
I'm having trouble deciding what I want to do when I "grow up". I'm not sure I want to stay with libraries, not that there is anything wrong with Librarianship or anything; it's just not exciting to me. My problem is, is that I get bored and want to find something "sexy" in a job, but what is a "sexy" job? Even if I had the most exciting job on the planet, I may still get bored. I just feel I have many ideas and energy and am not able to channel it. I also have too many interests. I love language, composition, history, cultural studies, education (reform) ...what does one do with all that? If anyone out there reads this and has an answer, please let me know.
I'm a mother of two boys, one is HFA (high functioning autistic) and one who is dyslexic, dysgraphic and has SPD. I'm married to a wonderful man; he's my best friend (and a also a librarian)!

I've had a cloudy day today, so I had to listen to this song!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iknEJf9cPeY
I'm a closet fan of Earth, Wind and Fire. :) I guess, I'm out now. This song always makes me want to get up and dance. Today, I needed some cheering up and so, "September" popped into my head. My boys liked it too. This is their last day of Spring vacation and they are at each others throats; school cannot start up again soon enough.
I have three more weeks of work then my contract is up for this school year. I will then need to find a summer gig, somewhere! Not sure where to go, downtown is going to be torn up and it will hurt tourism and restaurants, etc. So, maybe waiting/tending is out of the question. Stay tuned.

Spring Break
My sons are off school this week for their spring break. We didn't get to go anywhere this year, mainly because my break didn't align with theirs. Mies and I are splitting our time in order to not have to pay for childcare. Since I work part-time anyway, he went to 3 part-time days and took off Thursday and Friday. On Thursday, he and the boys are going down to his Mom and Step-Dad's for the weekend and I (for the first time in 11 years) will be flying solo. I have made no plans as I just want some quiet time to do what I want and not have to be "Mom" for a few days.
I know that by Friday evening, when we usually have "Family Night" activities, I will be missing them horribly.
