LATI project

Sherry and I are doing our project on Westernport's renovation. I found out this week that the date's been pushed up yet again. At first it was supposed to be August, and we would have had the Bookmobile stationed at the park across the street from my house for so many days a week. This would have been an interesting experience for a number of reasons: I've only been on it once; the park has a walking track that maybe we could have used during down time; there's a gazebo in the middle of it that I had planned to hold storyhours; just a nice all around work day. Then the date was changed to November/December. Oooops...forget November. We're still here and open for business. I IM'd my director last week and asked if it were safe to say we'd still be open in December. Yep. Renovation will start 1 February. So now I'm assuming we'll close mid to the sort of end of January in order to pack up the building. This is actually a good thing. Have you ever seen a working workroom? I was afraid I wouldn't be ready when the time came. I can't believe the stuff I'm finding...and it seems to be multiplying. As fast as I play pitch and toss, here comes more. And the books! We've kept up pretty well with weeding in the past few years, and it's funny that I've said at least 3 times "we're doing another MAJOR weed". Here we are again. Another MAJOR weed.I thought I was being relentless before. Nope. I am now. That's the good thing...more time to get rid of stuff. The not-good-thing is that I don't know if renovation will be done in time for our project. We talked about this today. We found out by experience just a year ago that when it was said our roof and meeting room would be done in 9 business days, it took 3 weeks. Nothing seems like it goes according to the PLAN. And...Sherry and I won't get to work the Bookmobile after all. Neither one of us wants to shovel snow.
