1987 Catherine's Letter -Aug.19

Wednesday, August 19, 1987

Dear Mother & Dad and Mary Virginia & Serena,

Hi!  Thanks for the post cards.  I am using the computer at work to write this as you could probably guess.  This is the fanciest print, as least that I've discovered so far.  You can even make it all different sizes!  I've had a lot of fun figuring how how it works but there is still alot I wish I knew that I haven't figured out yet!  I do lots of flyers, forms, etc. for work, like stuff about programs and storytimes, bookmarks and things like that.

We had registration for our fall programs beginning last Saturday.  I came in and worked from 8 to about 12:30.  When we opened at 9:00 there were 50 parents already standing in line to register!  The more popular programs filled up right away, and all the programs were filled and have waiting lists by yesterday.  We have been referring people to the Velma Teague "Branch" since they are offering similar programs and still have openings but most people want to use the NEW library.

Wendy seems to have adjusted to life at home.  She has been reading lots of books and going with Senior Village on some of their outings.  She had a great summer – thanks for everything!  We have been school shopping also.  Yesterday morning (sine I worked 12-9) we went to the J.C. Penney outlet store in Tempe and also to the Sears outlet in Scottsdale with Roberta but didn't find enough to justify the trip across town.  We can say we've been there though!

Write again soon and tell us what's happening in New Vienna!

8-20
It was good talking to you last night.  Wendy says the calendar was on the wall over the desk and she thought the picture (in tube) was on or near the desk.

Love,
Catherine, Gerry
& Wendy
