This was the last day (hopefully) that I did the book cart without Ereman. I've had to leave the morning church service two weeks in a row now because of the book cart, and I'm hoping not to need to do it again. I thought I was finished before lunch but was proven wrong later in the day.
The afternoon was filled with a pleasant visit from the younger of my two friends. This was the first time I had a visit with Betsy on her own and, just like before, it was like hanging out with an old friend.
On the way out of the visit, I was told that an officer at another dorm was looking for me. Hmmm, that's strange, I thought. Why would a guard from the other side of the unit want to see me? When I arrived at the dorm the officer showed me a spine tag from one of the book cart books.
"Can you find out which book this is so I can look for it? It seems like someone is trying to steal from the book cart."
Oh yeah, I can find out which book it is. I work hard to make a quality book cart for the guys and someone wants to steal from it. I got back into the library and looked up the number of the book in our paperwork. I even found the name of the guy who checked out the book to make sure he knew someone was trying to make off with his book and get him into trouble. Only a few minutes later I returned to the officer with the info I had dug up. It felt kind of like a detective mission. I don't know if the book was found yet but at least I did what I could, considering the circumstances. I really don't like people who ruin a good thing for others, especially when I put effort into making the good thing better.
