Because I had lapsed into a blog-funk (a <em>blunk</em>, perhaps? Nope, just looked it up and it’s Urbandictionaried – dagnabbit), I decided that I should try and keep my posts to once-a-week. That decision took pressure off of me in terms of getting something posted that someone out there might find of use or at…
As I transition more and more over to the Children’s Library, I’m slowly making my desk my own. I still will, on occasion, share it with my boss – but it’ll be my desk more often than not. <em>(tee-hee!)</em> For my sanity I like to keep things organized (plus the public can clearly see back into…
<span style=”font-style:inherit;line-height:1.625″>Last month our Children’s Library had its One Year Anniversary. Instead of calling it an anniversary, we re-branded it as a Birthday – and we were going to have a Birthday Party! We would read a special story I wrote about how we discovered a “library dragon” living on our property (which has lead…

Set-up is the only time-consuming aspect.” src=”http://hafuboti.wpcomstaging.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/logo-capture.jpg” alt=”” width=”447″ height=”184″></p> I thought I’d share with y’all what I’ve been working on at the Children’s Library since I’m guessing that other youth librarians out there would enjoy seeing/using this. I’ve generally kept this blog free of…
I went on a organize-sort-pitch frenzy over a year ago when I came across a bunch of tickets and wristbands from concerts/festivals that I’d saved as mementos. They were just thrown into an accordion file and I felt like I should do something with them rather than keep them hidden away. A few weeks later I spotted a…
Back when I was a young tyke, my most favoritest book that I made my mom read over and over again was Jon Stone and Michael Smollin’s <a href=”http://www.amazon.com/Monster-Sesame-Street-Little-Golden/dp/037582913X/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1353219227&sr=1-1&keywords=there%27s+a+monster+at+the+end+of+this+book” target=”_blank” rel=”noopener noreferrer”><em>There’s a Monster at the End of This Book </em></a>(sadistically forcing her to do Grover’s voice <em>every single time</em>). I believe that I fell in love…
For over a year I’ve been kicking around the idea of starting a blog. Back then the amazing Aunt Peaches put the idea in my head that I should give blogging a try. 9-17-2020 The rest of this post I rattle on a bit about my hopes for the blog, which were, essentially, getting people…
Hafuboti will be up and running by November 1, 2012. I look forward to sharing my love of books, crafts, and creativity with everyone. Until then, have a happy fun book time! 9-8-2020 Looking back on this first post is quite an emotional experience. If the Rebecca of now was to go back in time…
