| Took a friend to urgent care and thought these chairs looked like they had virus upholstery. |
 |
| My little one loves to shell peas even if she doesn't like to eat them. |
 |
| She and her family went to Taliesin West and brought me a mini puzzle with a note on the other side. |
 |
| Not sure why I brought back some plants and a pot from the give-a-plant, take-a-plant event at the library, but they are still alive so far. |
 |
| Gifts from friends |
 |
| Pretty spring blossoms |
 |
| I think every member of the football team rides an electric scooter. |

 |
| I was happy I decided to hear a student interview Nicholas Kristof. |

 |
| I felt obligated to cheer for the local team, but my heart wasn't really in it. |
 |
| I still love my job. We loved watching this huge truck in our residential neighborhood. It was driving onto the playground for a school event. |
 |
| Someone once called the crows janitors. I am sure there is plenty for them to eat by the tables in the school courtyard. |
 |
| October was a tough month. |

| We cycled to the grocery store. We sat on the bench outside and waved to everyone going in and out. |
 |

 |
 |
| This is our favorite fountain to visit. C loves to play in the water. |
 |
| Can you believe this tree looks so great? R. started here twenty years ago and I did not think this tree would make it. |
 |
| I really love the one-on-one time with a little one and my neighbors said they could use some help! I took care of Baby three days as a trial run. It was so fun to walk around the neighborhood and pull out my favorite books and cds. And they paid me! |
 |
| I like having flowers in the window, but I seldom have any and just as often think to buy some. |
 |
| I bought my first Lego set. |
 |
| I enjoyed building it with tips from my sister, an AFOL. |
 |
| After the current flowers die I'll put these in the window. |
 |
| The school was so short-staffed I got to proctor an exam in the staff room. |

 |
| It brought back good memories to see the conference proceedings from the Claremont Reading Conference hosted by the George C. Stone Center for Children's Books. |
School districts have been having a hard time hiring full-time positions and finding substitutes. In March the principal at the school down the street reached out to me and asked if I would be willing to help out at lunch time and recess. The job was outside and I felt like accepting the offer would connect me to my friend who had done the job (along with being the librarian) and would also be a help to the school.
 |
| My favorite part was watching the kids run out to the field and playground. |
 |
| very official looking |
 |
| I also liked being on campus for special events, like when the seniors return to share words of wisdom. |
 |
| Another highlight was having my picture in the yearbook, being asked sign some kids' yearbooks, and receiving one and a parting gift. Thanks, Sycamore! |
