It is early morning, just before 8 a.m. when we open up the Library. Very quiet.
Temps in the a.m. these days hover in low 80sF ? very pleasant.
I took Bill & Elaine Wadden out to Bait 7 for dinner last night. They had not been in this area of ?old? Kuwait. Bait 7 has excellent food, and we enjoyed a pleasant dinner outside. The streets are all torn up, however ? progress ? harrumph!
I?ve been working on some ?strategic planning? materials to use for our training session for the Iraqi LIS professors in later November. John Rutland (faculty AUK) has been helpful in sharing materials. With the exception of getting the 2nd half of the grant money shipped here, I?ve done just about all I can to prepare for this. I am hopeful it will work out well ? how about ?cautiously optimistic!?
