week 4

I made a Wee Mee for my Skype page-here it is. Short brown hair & light eyes for me, longsleeved, simple white shirt and white pants w/open toed for the weather and the region, and the monkey because it is how my husband and sister affectionately insult each other. I like it, but on Skype, it didn't "read" well. Looks much better here... I registered for LibraryThing many moons ago, at Susan Modak's urging. I thought it would be great for personal "If you like this, then you'll like" recommendations, and for helping me organize my home library when the time came. Well, working in a library cured my need to know what to read next-I always have too many things I want to read. But, actually, I think when I get back to public library work, I may reset mine to reflect the tastes of our thriller & mystery readers. Although, many of them already know what's out there and have just read everything already! As for the home library-we had to pack it up twice in the last 6 months. We did a rough sort, which worked out better than anything else we've tried in 15 years of combined book collecting, and differing collecting styles. My Rollyo account collects, what else, the Doha websites I consult several times/week-1 for tides, 1 for weather, 1 for all the people in David's office that I have to ask for help at least 1/week each. Thanks folks!
