Missing Dad


He would have loved hearing about the recent changes in my job. From finding rental trucks to getting parking lots paved to getting the flowers planted to arranging for laptop computers for all the branch managers to why the air conditioning pump (parts obselete in 1975) broke down and how we got it fixed to bad transmissions to finding bids for a new truck--and of course, still ordering books and more typical library-type duties.

Dad was an electrician, but also a man handy at fixing anything that broke. He would have been fascinated by this turn in his librarian daughter's career. As for me, I'm enjoying every minute of it. Being Dad's daughter, living out in the country and 15 years or so of farming have all taught me a lot about a lot of stuff that isn't covered by any library degree program I know of.

Dad would have loved it.
