[LM_NET] (Fwd) Re: Lunch Bag Suggestions

[Courtney McPherson <cmcphers@VVS-CSD-JDG.MORIC.ORG>]

        I second the nomination for principal/administrator of the year 
        for this principal!

        Toward the end of last year my principal actually told me the 
        library could not be closed to students at any point during the 
        school day.  Doors open, lights on, staffed, the whole deal.  
        Since it is impossible for my aide and I to take separate 
        lunches, we eat in the office and have a "working lunch." 
    every 
        day.  I haven't forced the issue with him because there is NO 
        way I'd want anyone else other than my trusty sidekick and 
        myself within 100 yards of my library.  I can only imagine the 
        havoc they could wreak over the course of a 40-minute lunch.

        As for me, my lunch used to be an apple, granola bar, and 
        yogurt, but now that I'm expecting I've really beefed it up.  
        Otherwise I have no chance of lasting the afternoon.  I bring 
        anything from soup to dinner leftovers to sandwiches.

        I also have to agree with the poster who mentioned nut 
    butters 
        for lasting energy.  I have peanut butter toast for breakfast 
    every 
        morning and nothing keeps me going through the morning 
        better!

         We had a full hour!

    promise) 
        that I take at least 1/2 an hour lunch AWAY FROM THE 
        LIBRARY !  She had numerous reasons for this, some of 
    which 
        included: networking/meeting the staff, unwinding from a long 
        morning, let my hair down and relaxing, and getting to 
    recharge 
        my "work" battery for the long afternoon.
