Best I can tell you (with a wry face) is that it's survivable. You'll like having a house once you've had one for a bit. Truly. :) Having just barely moved in myself, I definitely feel for you on the nomad thing! Best I can tell you (with a wry face) is that it’s survivable.

Good luck on the move and thanks for the supportive email last week. Not that you have time to read much right now, but here are two books that have encouraged me to think I can really make a difference in my next workplace.

An inspirational bit that made my afternoon, thanks for sharing it. It does remind me as well why I found the transition from teacher to librarian so easy. In my case, I never stopped being a teacher, just the label changed. I love that idea of read me a book on request. Wish it would spread. I did look at the wiki. It looks promising and interesting, but I have to admit I am bit shy about even entering such a space with so many fine writers out there. But I hope tools like these will grow not just for the profession, but for those we serve as well. In the meantime, best wishes on the new house and job. Wow, that story is just great.
