This might not seem like a monumental thing, but it is Mommy-Tracked's sanity. Books. DVDs. Storytime. A place to take the kids where they won't whine.
I've moved multiple times in my life. I'm about to get my 10th. Every time I move, I keep the library card. It's my record of the places that kept me sane. Sorry, Plainfield. I'm not giving it back.
A shout out to all the libraries who have given me books, music and videos that have transported me out of the humdrum and into other worlds:
Scenic Regional Library
Daniel Boone Regional Library
River Bluffs Regional Library
North Castle Public Library
Pleasant Hill Public Library
Altoona Public Library
West Des Moines Public Library
Plainfield Public Library District
Springfield-Greene County Regional Library

I loved this post! Very poignant and about something that keeps me sane also.
Good job for being so flexible and resilient yet knowing when to rely on the familiar.
