I began putting my Professional Development journal together for revalidation. I took a week off work to complete it and it probably would have been ample time if I didn't find that the gardening needed doing and the house was over due for a spruce up before winter...you get the picture. Seems like everything else competed for my time but i have started it now and already I have found the process rewarding. Even if I have to say so myself, I have learned a lot in the few years that I have been a librarian.
