Another Snowy Day

No school today, so I’m curled up with my laptop by the fire. Today I was going to work on the “Let’s Get Trivial” bulletin board, but I don’t have my materials at home. Luckily, I can work on writing up the content with the books I’ve checked out from the Seattle Public Library: 15,003 Answers: The Ultimate Trivia Encyclopedia and The Giant Book of Bulletin Boards.

Also, I’ve been asked to spread the word about Fund Our Future, a group of mothers trying to pass legislation in Washington State that would require schools to have at least one professional librarian each. Bush is lucky to have four amazing librarians, but many schools in our state don’t have any.

There’s a rally this Friday in Olympia. Here’s the information:
