"I have lived on the lip of insanity, wanting to know reasons, knocking on a door. It opens. I've been knocking from the inside." I need to gear up for the canvass!

Thirsty Thursday


all alone in the Micropolitain office on a raining morning


Arielle snapped this gem the other day. Gosh I miss the capital city sometimes.

Reinforcements, 1000 lawn signs, Lynn's garden salsa and 89 yr who wants call sheets sent to him, etc. etc. GOOD DAY

Trail blazing Revolutionary Road

No sitting on this Saturday.
I am saying a prayer for my canvas. Releasing stress and lifting up my sincerest wishes that all will be dandy, and that my volunteers will be handy. It is lovely weather.  I pray   for my many people- as they open their doors they will also open their minds. May they take their civic duty seriously. and if you will it, if it is in fact  in our best interest may we get lots of IDs today. thanks for listening man upstairs, you strengthen me.



Why is it 90+ degrees? Don't enjoy the sweating! Silly global climate change. The leaves have already began to turn from green to golden/auburn.
 grumpiness - my body's grudge against stickiness subsided after I took a moment to breath post-door knocking. I was able to acknowledge that while my low tolerance for heat exposure, the amount of exercise it required for my bodies endorphins to also get kicking (thanks to my busy schedule as of late) was increasingly low. So I was able to manage a smile through my exhaustion.  then I got free iced tea! (the joy of free things is not to be underestimated) The town we chose to cover today has a fair going on (so we got in some quality viz as well ;).

As I sat there relishing the refreshment of finally resting my butt on a cushion with an ice beverage in my hand.  Teetotaler today at the bar I looked up at the TV- Instantaneously love drunk (apparently that tolerance is also low these days). Sports on the screen. Sports star- a dream, Verile vision.   It was ths State School team's cutie kicker! Cheers to Fall football and a canvass complete. All felt right with the world again, realigned. The only thing more refreshing than lemonade at the end of a hot day? good timing, especially at the pace my life is kicking these days.
