Election Day

It's municipal Election Day here today, and I still don't have a clue who to vote for as Mayor of this fine town. I do know who I don't want as Mayor, which would be ALL of the contenders for the job! None of them are worthy so it's a bit of a dilemma, I don’t want to forfeit my vote, so I am using these last few hours to decide what to do. Luckily there are some very good people running for the City Council, so the only problem there is that I only get to vote for one party!

What else is new? We had a very quite weekend at my FIL's. We did have quite a scare on the way there, we all went out to wait for the lift and when Ben got in he fell over, then I noticed that there was blood all over the lift door and floor, and of course his clothes were covered in blood. The poor little thing had cut his tiny finger. Of course that made me really queasy, to see my poor little baby bleeding. We bandaged him up and stopped the bleeding, but the next day the cut started bleeding again so we decided to take him to the doc to have it checked. We had left it too long to be glued together, but the doctor said that it wasn't deep, so they just washed it out and put a plaster on it. Of course I was the one who needed medication for my nerves after the whole incident.

The week started off really nicely, Sunday morning I went with DH to Shery, my Reiki Master's (and one of my fav peeps) to help her with her computer. I love visiting her home, the energy there is amazing! So that was a wonderful way to start the week. That evening I went with Niki to sell some of the LEAP ladies work (or rather to learn and see what to do).

Monday was the LEAP group, but only one lady turned up. Someone had passed away in their community, and as is customarily they all went to the funeral. At least I got some time to chat with Niki and learn more about the project and what I will be doing.

After that it was off to the Baltimore Park to meet up with the visiting group from Baltimore and of course to sell more of the LEAP work. (We did very well with the sales, which makes me very happy, these ladies definitely need this positive feedback).

Monday is the girls' drama day, so we spent the evening with my parents (hadn't done that for a while, so that was fun!). They have lessons one after the other, so I left Ben with mom while I took each one to her lesson. The teacher said that Shiraz participated a lot so I'm very pleased about that!

Other good news is that I got a fun translation job to do, so I am of course very thankful for that. And Shiraz got 100% in her first math test…well done, Wuzzie!
