Awwwww....my friend Missy was thinking of me...



Petitions



Today was the first day to pick up qualifying petitions for the 2014 election year.  This blog is my way of sharing my life, whether or not anyone is reading.  So.... I picked my paperwork as incumbent Trustee candidate.   Petitions are due mid February.

Chris had told me he wanted to be the first to sign.  So as supporters started signing I had the #1 line left blank for him.  When I got home he looked the paperwork and said "I wanted to be the first to sign".

I told him I left the top spot open to which he replied he wanted to be the actual first person. Not just top spot.  Sorry babe....

I will most likely have the petition with me the next time I see you. If you are a registered Monroe County voter I'd love you to sign when we cross paths. Or stop by the office like friends Rachael and Blair.  I was excited they were among those wanting to support!  Thanks to all today.

Bridget. One of first five to sign.

Blair stopped by after a long day teaching high school English just to sign my petition. 



Picking up paperwork at lunch time at the Election Commission.


Starting paperwork at the office. 




Puck



At the Ice Bears hockey game tonight a puck flew up over the section next to us.  

I asked Chris,  "would you throw yourself in front of a flying, out of control puck to keep it from hitting me?"

Chris said, "yep, but I'd close my mouth".

(Close your mouth? Maybe he thinks that would protect his teeth if he got hit in the mouth.  I don't think so....)









5 o'clock shadow



Who would have ever thought not shaving would turn into something so cool.  Not 5 o'clock shadow but three day scruffy.





Reign


I'm really enjoying the show "Reign" but having read the Alison Weir book some years ago it's hard knowing Mary's fate.
