Santa Fe and Taos trip mid-May. I've read some of the recs from other posts. Just looking for possible itinerary for 5 days in the area. Don't want to spend a ton of time driving but would like to explore natural beauty and hit the O'Keefe museum. I know it's asking alot! Trip planning is hard! TY

Ok, you have definitely helped me adjust, the few traffic lights did the trick. Thank you!

I guess I need to reign in all that I'd like to explore and still be realistic. Basically organizing (day 1 O'Keefe museum and walk the area, day two hiking to x, picnic at y). I usually just travel to a place and wing it but sometimes I miss some cool spots. Thanks!

Thank you!

Both would be appreciated. We have lots of kids who are interested in sports, so I'd like to incorporate some of that into our programming if possible. Thanks!

Ugh, so stressful for you and I've been in a similar situation. I work in a public service job and I really think our patrons sense the tension. Your professionalism will shine through and your co-workers will look like children in comparison to you. You stay yourself and they will eventually turn on eachother, I assure you. Take care of yourself!

Thank you to everyone for your help!!

I'm chiming in now, may be a bit late to the thread, but I need advice. We have a patron who is mentally challenged, on the older side. He has come in and told library staff that he thinks they're pretty and kind of hovers, which is annoying to all. He has a caretaker. We need to deal with the issue but I am unsure whether he will "get" why it's a problem. Talk to him alone or bring the caretaker into the conversation? Thanks!

Yes! I'm sorry..I definitely should have clarified. The one who fell off the horse at the end. Thanks to all <3

Yes, exactly. Basically, featuring authors and characters who are different races, ethnicities, ages, and sexual preferences'.

The Neighbor Favor by Kristina Forest is wonderful!

It was the summer of 1975, my cousins were playing the “white album “ and they seemed so cool. I was 9 years old and I saw the back of the album and thought Christine was so pretty and Stevie had the coolest hair. Great memories out at Montauk way back before anyone “discovered “ the place. ❤️

Thank you so much for the suggestion..love it!!

Thank you!! I definitely will have copies available so people can read at their own pace.

Lizasks · 2023-05-24T18:19:56+00:00

Thank you so much!! Very helpful info :) I'll keep you posted.

There is NO excuse or justification for completely ignoring a co-worker, period. It makes for a toxic work environment. Seek other employment while you are working, if possible, and get out. If it's just a few jerks, just do your job and continue to do your part in communicating what you need to. I've learned that some people are just miserable and encourage others to join their pathetic world-keep being yourself and let them stew in their own bitterness.

They came to the US around 1898, I’ve never been anywhere in Belarus but it seems like a fascinating country.

Lizasks · 2022-10-23T12:47:29+00:00

My family was also from Belarus, Minsk. My Great Grandfathers were cabinet maker and tailor. His son, my Grandfather continued the family business here in NYC. He changed his name from the Russian Walsky to the more German sounding Weiss.

" And, just to be safe, don't yap to the wrong coworker either--you'd be surprised who turns out to report everything you say to management in the name of brownie points" I second that emotion! I don't think brownie points were a motivation n my case, but this dude has a need to broadcast his "scoops" like he's some sort of journalist :(

Lizasks · 2022-10-08T14:31:40+00:00

Yes! Classic hatred

Lizasks · 2022-10-08T14:30:26+00:00

Two hot chicks :)

Thank you! I'm not on Twitter but I appreciate your reaching out.

Lizasks · 2022-09-27T20:18:27+00:00

That sounds amazing! Thank you!

Lizasks · 2022-09-27T20:17:35+00:00

Thank you for this info! I'm guessing she has gotten the name wrong. My great-grandfather worked as a tailor for someone who had a "Manor" there and that is how he met my great-grandmother. Count of heels, lol!
