Bad Weather at the Library
The Library Mommies and I have been online most of the morning monitoring the bad weather that will be coming through this afternoon. Do you know what you should do if you are at my library when the weather is so bad the sirens go off? I will tell you.
When we hear the sirens, the Mommies and other staff members will ask all patrons to follow them downstairs to our staff room. The staff room is on the lowest level of the library and has no windows, making it an excellent place to be during storms. If you want to stay in the library while the storm is happening, you must be in this area because we want everyone to be safe. I go in the staff room too, of course, in my lovely pink carrier to wait out the storm.
While we aren't open for business while the storm is going on (that means no check outs or internet, sorry), the library remains open as a safe haven for anyone caught in the storm. Please stop in if you find yourself out and about when the storm hits.
Library staff will be monitoring the situation by listening to our local radio station, WCBK, and checking local news and weather stations online. Once the "all clear" is given, everyone is free to go about their business.
Storms can be a little scary, but having a safety plan in place can make them seem less so. I hope everyone, no matter where you are, stays safe today!
Love and carrots,
Morgan

Sad News
My friend Peyton T. Fish passed away yesterday. He'd been very sick and the library mommies did everything they could but it was just his time.
He was a good fish. He was camera shy, so I don't have a picture of him, but he was a lovely dark blue beta fish with just a little red on his feathery fins. He always liked visitors and was an excellent listener. We will all miss him.
Love and Carrots,
Morgan
P.S. Mr. Paul, it is way too soon for sushi comments.....

A Horse of Course
Ms. Alyssa and Ms. Bobbi are all jazzed up for some horse race tomorrow. It's called the Kentucky Derby and in Ms. Alyssa's home state of Kentucky, it's apparently a pretty big deal. She even went as far as to call it the "greatest two minutes in sports."
Does anyone else know anything about the Derby? I will say that these horses have some...well...unusual names, such as, Pants on Fire and Mucho Macho Man. Then again, they may think that Morgan is an odd name for a rabbit.
