Hi new friends. A quick intro. First, I post my Wordle daily. Second, I'm currently a makerspace librarian in the Chicago burbs. Third, I'm on a mission to practice my values in personal and professional spheres which includes caring for myself. Finally, I love romance novels.

@FedEx I spent $100+ to get keys to my friend by 8 AM this morning so they can check on my pets. Apparently you don't keep your guarantees because now all I can expect is by the end of day.

Anyway... if you want to chat/follow me elsewhere: heidithebee (IG), heidireadsya (Tumblr, not sure how much I'll really use it, but I might try for a while), or DM for my email.
My time with social media may just be coming to an end. We'll see.

Went to see if I can remember my Tumblr login. That little dig at the bottom is amazing.

Me: I'm pretty sure kpop has helped me realize I'm bisexual.

Spouse: I'm pretty sure it's confirmed I'm very straight.

A good partnership where we can discuss how gorgeous and hot all the members of Twice were tonight

I really want to go back to Ireland.

Last day of PT for my back. I'm going to miss my therapist.

[Heidi E. (she/her/hers) @thelibrarybee1]

I don't remember how many days I'm on now, but I do know that I've managed to turn in my monthly report early (I'm not back at work until July 2), and I've been pretty good at tackling my to-do list every day. Magic

Here's my wisdom after a full 7 days of ADHD meds. They can help you focus and get things done. They can't force you to focus on things you're avoiding. 1/

@bandherbooks Okay, but what kind of pretzel? Are we talking crispy or chewy? Will adding dips make it more effective?

[Heidi E. (she/her/hers) @thelibrarybee1]

Much is wrong with the world, but my work inbox is very much under control right this moment. Little things.

@StephanieReads There are too many kids at the park next to the library. Those poor little lungs.

[Heidi E. (she/her/hers) @thelibrarybee1]

Walking outside feels like I'm having an Idaho summer of wildfires or a Flagstaff control burn season. This air quality is no joke.

[Heidi E. (she/her/hers) @thelibrarybee1]

@storytimekatie Everything. It's all just so heavy.

@NoetheMatt I will never suggest anyone copy anything, but if I show you where our digital archival tools and scanners are, I'm not going to police how you use them.

[Heidi E. (she/her/hers) @thelibrarybee1]

@ShhhYeah It's awful. I never thought it would have this particular smell here.

[Heidi E. (she/her/hers) @thelibrarybee1]

@catladylib That's pure evil

[Heidi E. (she/her/hers) @thelibrarybee1]

I slept wrong and my whole neck and right shoulder hurt. Send halp

[Heidi E. (she/her/hers) @thelibrarybee1]

@ShhhYeah Pronunciation all depends on the language anyway. I mispronounce it in my head all the time because I got used to singing it in Italian.

[Heidi E. (she/her/hers) @thelibrarybee1]

@violetbfox I am too. Faith and faith community can be such a blessing, but it's hard to trust.

[Heidi E. (she/her/hers) @thelibrarybee1]

There was nothing simple about my life growing up, and I guarantee that faith played a part in breaking my family and exploiting my mother's hope before abandoning her when her mental health deteriorated.

[Heidi E. (she/her/hers) @thelibrarybee1]

@haven4books There is no expiration date on that religious trauma.

[Heidi E. (she/her/hers) @thelibrarybee1]

Give me captions in all movie theaters and musicals on stage please. I'm having a hard time understanding, and people around me have mentioned the same.
