All Work and No Play...

Rhoda
(the Artist's Niece, 1934)

Today will be my eleventh day in a row of going off to work and there is yet another shift tomorrow.  All work and no play...well, that's not entirely true.  I did whip in to the Reuse Centre (horrible dusty place but a treasure trove for books) and found a first edition of Bond Street Story by Norman Collins.  Having a peek at the first few paragraphs before marching off to the circulation desk at the library brought a huge smile to my face.  And our new stove is being delivered later this afternoon!

In the meantime, I thought it was time to change the scenery a bit.  This portrait by Harold Harvey (1874 - 1941) of his niece captures a look of complete serenity.  Something I hope to achieve on Sunday with a day of complete nothingness.
