Getting my foot stuck in the happy wheel!

Today, a patron helped me with this great description. I was mentioning how last Wed. night I had a great book group where my friend showed us her garden which will be on a garden walk and then we read the book "Garden Voices". We discussed it until 11:00 at night and we all had to go to work the next day! Then Thursday night, I went down to Summerfest to see Stevie Wonder and got home at 1:00 in the morning and had to go to work Friday. Friday night was an expedition to Chicago and up early Saturday for a trip to Elizabeth, Illinois. 4 of us went to participate in the "Gathering of Elizabeths". There were over 400 Elizabeths gathered! We were trying to make a Guinness Book of World's Records record! Then get back in the car Saturday night--drive up to Chicago. Drive back up here on Sunday. Yesterday, was our first day of summer reading at the library--much excitement and activity! This patron said to me today, "It sounds like your foot got stuck in the happy wheel." Perfect! Summer is just that way for me. I love every minute of it and live it to the hilt. Here's hoping your foot is stuck in the happy wheel, too!
