Election Campaigning April 2013

Well, here I am again, walking the streets posting things, hoping people see me doing it nearly all by myself.  I have had some help posting from my son reluctantly, some further much happier and joyful help from my neices Amy and Natalie.  My sister gave me an hour of her precious time and my husband put some letters in envelopes.

Much to my annoyance I haven't managed to post everything and the election is only weeks away.  I have the first proof of my leaflet without any printing arranged.  I am running out of time.

This last week saw the first of my walking injuries, my right foot became unwalkable on, it was horrific, but in true grit style I kept walking on it.  To the point where I strapped it up and took pain killers to keep going.

It was great walking around, I noticed so much about the other two areas of South Melton, about 99% of the houses and gardens looked lovely.  The only scruffy property I think is mine, one day when I hang up my political and working hat, I will have the time needed to sort out the house and garden.

At work, I came to the end of a course for brand new apprentices.  I was teaching them Etiquette inside the work place.  How to and how not to behave and how to speak on the telephone etc...  They were a great group, after working in the prison, when you get a good group it usually means the next one will be a stinker but lets hope not.

Well, thats enough rambling from me today!

Happy 2013 so far!

This year has been full of some great stuff to date.

January saw me start a new job in Leicester, teaching Maths and English to Apprentices and Unemployed people.

February was a great month for Parents Evening for my son Joseph, he copes and excels with Aspergers and was a star according to all his teachers.

March was the month I with lots of persuasion from my fellow councillors to stand for the County Council Election. My husband, Andy and my Son and I got our first proper holiday in years, where we all did our best to rest and relax.

April, I was treated by my husband Andy to a ride on an Aerochute.  It was an amazing thing to do, very addictive I think, I want to do it again.

I have now got to do some envelope stuffing for a swift delivery this weekend, which only has 1 day left now.  I have opted to practice for my next holiday today by relaxing.
