Two great joys for me

Two great joys for me

I have two great joys when it comes to working at the library.  Well maybe one, since they are tied together.  I love to go shopping for new books, whether it is online or in the store, looking over all the books, deciding what to buy can be the most fun.  It isn’t even necessarily the actual shopping, but hoping that I am choosing books that the inmates will want to read, which ties into my second joy….unpacking the boxes. 

When the boxes arrive in the library, I usually have my library clerks breathing down my neck to open them so they can see what is there. It is like Christmas every time we get a delivery.  The guys never know what will be in the boxes and I love opening them and seeing my choices again.

Right now I have about 15 boxes waiting for me…time to go have some fun!

One thought on “Two great joys for me

  1. oh, me too 🙂 my principal laughs and laughs at how giddy i get when i open boxes:

    “goody, goody, goody” (said while I jump up and down)

    “what did you get?” (asks the principal)

    “parkers lawyer directories!” (I say this with glee)

    “oh. okay.” (said in bored disbelief by the principal as she walks away…)
