  I go on vacation next week. This is my dream vacation because a vacation like this is only in my dreams. The truth is I have a lot of vacation hours and I need to lower them. Am I going anywhere? Well, maybe to Upland Public Library, or maybe I'll take Flat Stanley to the beach...
  All our programs will be going strong. I will be coming in for the Tuesday story time. (How could I possibly miss the April 1st story time? I pull all the silly stories I can get my hands on.) My favorite is "The Twist Mouth Family". I bet you can't guess what is silly about that family!
  Toddler time and Infant story time will be Wednesday and Thursday at 10:00am. Ms. Nissa and Grandma Sue do a GREAT job with these groups.
  Don't forget our homework center. Tuesday and Thursday the hours are 4:00pm-6:00pm. and Wednesday 3:00pm-5:00pm. This is for students in grades 3 through 6.
  Grandparents and Books is Wednesday from 3:30-4:30pm. Grandma Jean comes in especially for this and does an excellent job. She even lets you practice your reading if you want too.
  So have a great week. If you have suggestions of what you do on your vacations please leave a comment. I can use all the help I can get!

  Yours truly (Ms. Nissa) was quoted in an article in the Daily Bulletin last week. You can read it here: "Seeing How Pomona Operates"
  That was our second visit from a local Pomona school and we're really excited for the next two schools to come. I might even have my tour memorized by then! :-D
  Knock, Knock! Who's there? Catsup. Catsup who? Catsup a tree and she won't come down! :-D

  Have a great weekend and while you are doing your weekend stuff, think about coming into the Library next week.
  Monday is St. Patrick's Day so remember to wear green unless you actually enjoy being pinched. I don't. I have a full proof green button in my desk at work that usually saves me each year when I forget to wear green!
  Rumor has it that PUSD has a "pupil free day" (gotta love that term), on Tuesday, so come into the library for reading, homework help, or to drive us crazy. We actually enjoy that!
  Wednesday we will have a spring craft so Grandma Sue will be leading this by showing you how to make bunny faces out of cotton balls. It's actually quite cute. (Grandma Sue has a crafty mind....)
  For the young ones, story time is on Tues. 10:15am, Wed. at 10:00am, and Thursday at 10:00am.
  Have a great weekend and remember to be kind to humans and animals. You'll feel good if you do.

  We all have many reasons not to do homework. The cat sat on it. The dog ate it. The wind picked it up and it flew on the roof. (I actually saw that happen once.) My best friend turned it in as their own...My Grandma died again...
  No more excuses! Our new homework center is taking off nicely. Cal Poly Pomona students are here to help you. The days and hours are:
  Be there and be fair!
  Joke for the day: Why did the math book have to go to a psychiatrist?
  Answer: Because it was full of problems!

  Do you like to make things? Join Grandma Sue on Wednesday March 19, 2008 at 3:00 p.m. We will be making a Bunny Rabbit. It's really soft, and you can hang it in your window or on the fridge, or on the wall in you room. All of our crafts are free so remember the date and I'll see you then.

  Remember to change your clocks Sunday morning by 2:00am. We spring forward. So 2:00am magically becomes 3:00am!
  This week our homework center began. Three days a week we offer homework assistance with the help of Cal Poly students. It is a wonderful thing to watch older kids helping the younger ones. So if you would like a fun place to do your homework, stop on by.
  I would like to take this opportunity to share with you that I
  put this picture into this blog all by myself. Thank you, thank
  you. Yes, this computer challenged librarian managed to do something that most of you all do everyday. Maybe old cats can learn new tricks. :)
