New Life Goal
In today’s post, I thought I would share a humorous look at a new life goal, inspired by a meme posted on the Laughing Librarian’s Facebook page. I hope this new goal will bring a smile to your face to end your week…
My new life goal is to have a TV show like Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives except it will be called, Bookstores, Beverages, and Besties. In this show, I would visit different cities in each episode, browse the city’s best bookstore with friends who travel with me, and enjoy various beverages, as we enjoy our books.
In my mind, it certainly is a goal worth striving for — sounds like fun to me.

For a number of years, I posted on my blog a daily Thought, Word, and Random Thought. In today’s post, I thought I would share a few of my favorite Random Thoughts from over the years
One of my first experiences with visiting the Public Library was when I was in grade school. I was in the third grade when my teacher, Sister Rachel, decided it would be a good idea to take our class to the Public Library. Keep in mind, school field trips in those days were not a common occurrence, so this was a “Big Adventure”.
As an avid reader, I often learn many new and interesting things as well as reaffirm some of the basic ideas and concepts of life. However, quite often I find words that require me to look up their meaning and check for understanding. Conversely, I come across a word that brings a smile to my face and wonder how such a word even entered into our language.
As a former bookseller and librarian, I always love hearing about conversations between parents and children when visiting the library. The following was recently overheard in a library between a mother and her daughter:
