Where I’ve Been
Yeah. It’s been a rough week. Feels like my anxiety has kicked into overdrive for a whole number of reasons. All which can be wrapped up in some sort of fear for the future and things that I have absolutely no control over.

Starting the week after next, I will be a full-time library circulation aide at a different branch in the system. And I have a lot of feelings about it.… Continue reading A Puddle of Emotions

Processing…
Holy crap, June has been a month. Just a lot of stuff happening all at the same time. The job interviews. Attempting to wait patiently to hear back about said job interviews. Mom heading off to the Ukraine. The start of Summer Vacation/Library’s Busy Season. Throw in perhaps the weirdest Father’s Day weekend I’ve had… Continue reading Processing…
