FREE AT LAST!

Hello deprived readers of Library Girl. Many of you have inquired about the lack of new reading material provided here in recent months. Here’s the scoop.

School started.

That’s pretty much it. My job changed and I no longer had as much energy for “extra-cirriculars”. I have continued to take plentiful amounts of pictures. I just haven’t had the time to write them up. There were moments when I felt like I wanted to write something but It wasn’t in the chronological order of things because I had gotten so behind. I felt like I couldn’t write anything current until I had caught up with the summer posts. And so, I wrote nothing. Not good. And not fun.

So, here is my new plan.

(Since I made up the original plan in the first place, I can change it, right?)

After an enlightening discussion over tacos at Rosa’s with my dear friend Katie, I have decided to grant myself permission to drop Project 365. It will be referred to in the future as Project 185 (as that is how many days I actually got to). So, I won’t be printing a journal for myself of 2009. Just half of 2009. I have a feeling I will still enjoy it.

And now—(dun…dun…dun…)

I officially release myself from the burden I placed on my own self. I am no longer bound by date or subject matter for any post. I can write whatever I want whenever I want. I can write about Aidan’s October birthday in January if I feel like it. I can write about our summer trip while I am on Christmas vacation and then add a Christmas post right after that if I feel like it. Ha Ha Ha Ha! Oh, the freedom of  releasing yourself from your own ridiculous constraints.

Thank you for your kind patience in this matter. The requests from my friends and family to continue have been heard. And I am now able to move forward with a boundary free blogging experience. I will write when I can and not worry about it otherwise.

AMAZING!

Even though I no longer work in the library, I can’t bring myself to change the blog title. So, it will remain unchanged. However, the woman beneath the name is a new creature of freedom! But I will always be Library Girl at heart. I’ve heard I may be helping with the book fair later this month—so it still counts, right?

I wonder what other constraints I am placing on myself that need to be reexamined. Who knows what I might give myself permission to do? Don’t worry boys, I don’t think the grocery store and the laundry are optional. Now….loading the dishwasher…hmmm…that might just be another story.

Glad to be back!
