Finally! We runaway to Portland for Thanksgiving.
This year was work, work, work. Began January 2 at the legislature. Then in May we began our campaign for reelection. Early morning sign wave, then creating brochures, photos, canvassing, ending with afternoon sign waving. A long hot summer. Glad its over. After a short break, got an offer to work at another state department as an emergency hire foe 89 days. That was an education itself.
Reelection means I get to start work at the Capitol on January 2, again.
As you can tell, I am ready for a change of scenery. Friends from Bellingham are meeting us in Portland and we have a fun schedule planned. Sleeping in, breakfast, shopping, sight seeing, & wine tasting in Newberg. Wait till you see the house we all rented.
