Angelo Bronzino, Portrait of a Lady, 1550

Daily Thoughts 01/12/2017

I checked the library Twitter and Facebook this morning.

I checked the displays and the gift books.

I am working on my monthly report today.  I am about halfway done.  I spent a little time looking at the Ingram Advance.

We had the Tracks program come by to discuss train safety which was interesting.  I learned a few things about what not to do when crossing railroad tracks.

There is a Beginning Microsoft Powerpoint class tonight in the computer lab from 5:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m.
