Daily Thoughts 02/03/2021

I checked the library Twitter and Facebook Group this morning.

I am watching the Westchester Library Association Mid Winter Conference from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. on Zoom.  It is focused on technology.  There is a lot about open access software and branding.

I read some more of The Human Cosmos Civilization and the Stars.  I am reading about how the stars are made of iron and carbon and the common elements of the universe.

I also read some more of Stay Woke.  I am reading about how to address negative thoughts.
