Daily Thoughts 11/02/2018

I checked the library Twitter and Facebook this morning.

I read some of Stop Workplace Drama on the way home last night.  I read about the importance of having clarity for your goals.

I also read some more of Who We Are and How We Got Here.  I am reading about different ancient peoples like the Ancient North Eurasians, the Funnel Beaker Culture, and the Yamnaya.

I checked the displays and the gift books today.

I spent some time looking over the mending.  I also spent some time checking items that are not in the system.

I also read:

I checked the New York Times Bestseller List and the Publishers Weekly Bestseller List.

I spent some time discussing programming.
