A nice surprise
Well at least yesterday wasn't as busy as the day before. I actually could breathe a little bit.
Work wasn't that busy. I didn't have any scheduled meetings. I was soo hoping to get some crap done, but alas it wasn't so. Every one I emailed to requesting an update or ability to work with never replied nor responded. Oh well. So it goes.
Tuesday evening, my wife and I had the opportunity to consolidate some bills. I had to get them ready and send them out yesterday. I did this during lunch. When I ran them to the post office, I had a weird feeling to stop by the Senior Citizens building. I did so thinking I would pass out or post up my campaigning efforts for School Board. The run-off is April 5th. When I went in only one guy and 2 boys were there. I simply went to him to hand him my flyer with a greeting. He not only stated he knew I wanted to run, but he was rooting for me. We have had a on-going political battle in the small town, which I will post later in detail. Seems he was running for City Council as well, but without an opponent. He will be nominated in without a hitch. Anyway, he asked if I could come in Thursday around 12 p.m. to speak. There will be nearly 50 elderly there and he would give me a mike and pulpit to not only introduce myself, but pass out flyers, discuss and explain why I am runnning for School Board. Talk about a great opportunity. He went on to say, they may be old, but everyone of them actually votes. This is significant, because I am constatly amazed of those that can and don't vote, or haven't even bothered to register. But that's another soapbox.
I just thought it was interesting I had a funny feeling to go there, and this came about.
Regardless, I plan to be there during my lunch today. Wish me luck.
