Peace Out

I love the sky in New Mexico.  You can see forever- such a vast expanse.  I also love the dryness of the air, the cacti and the mountains.  Such a beautiful, peaceful place.

This afternoon we ate at Bea’s Mexican Restaurant and I had a carne adovada burrito and a sopapilla.  It was so yummy.  We spent the last weekend at Carlsbad Caverns.  Too much family time in the car and hotel, but the boys loved the caverns and had a blast. 

Finished a couple of great books so far this summer, which is an amazing feat, with the amount of studying I’ve had.  The Breakdown Lane, by  Jacquelyn Mitchard was fantastic, as well as Love and Other Impossible Pursuits by Ayelet Waldman .  I also read The Ice Queen: A Novel by Alice Hoffman.  Now the rest of the summer is devoted to learning MARC codes and figuring out the changes at the Library of Congress!  Also need to figure out the difference between XML and MARC.  yikes!
