No, but thanks very much |
I will not agree to stay on in my job one day a week. It is an honor to be asked, I must have done something right, but no... I gave one of the true reasons, the other one doesn't need to be shar...

Last week as a childminder |
I have done this job off and on for many years. I swore, at age 25, that I would never, never do it again, but at 30 I had to, based on my status in a foreign country. This was, in many ways, my best ...

Yowch |

That's how a librarian should be |
Spiddal has a teeny-tiny library and yet every week I manage to find 5 new books and devour them all in rapid succession. The librarian knows me well by now (as well as you can know a woman who tiptoe...
