UPS Gets the Grant Proposal - I Get Nancy Back


For the past month - Nancy, Eliza, and Rachel have been working around the clock on "the grant." If funded - a program would be established at FSU that would provide 30 full scholarships for school librarians to come to FSU and get "board certified." What that means to most librarians is a substantial pay raise - what it means to Eliza and Nancy is the "birth of their new baby" - IF - they win the grant. Total funding of the grant is roughly one million dollars.

What it means to me - a little sanity around here for the Christmas Holidays.

In the picture you see the workers at UPS inspecting the overnight package to make sure it will get to Washington safely and on time. It had to be postmarked today.

PS - I haven't posted a story in six days - and this is as good as it gets right now.
