Sunday, April 13th....My day begin at 4am when I finally had a handle on my flyer for distribution at the Caucus at USC....Nikki, mother of Hannah (my son Ali's BF) took a look at my handy work on a program she offered to support me and the flyer process. I am a big fan of Microsoft Publisher for which I have created a newsletter/circular for shirts I used to sell. Let me back up, I was struggling with Nikki's program, but for the purposes of a campaign flyer her program turned to out to be easier.
After using one of my shiny forehead pictures from Spring Break in NY and fighting the Snap Viewer crop tool to crop it. I was almost ready. I put in text and by just after 6am I was done, but desperate like I am right now for a little sleep. I laid down and got back up and was out the door at or before 7:15am. Fed EX Knko's has a wonderful 24 hur location near Nikki's apt, but the computers are sooooo slow and then all of the USB drives weren't working. I was being charged .25/min but that can grow fast and between slow a** printers and slow a** computers I was just fit to be tied. I was in a rush and every minute actually counted.
I was back at Nikki's soon and I dressed Ali and bathed myself....We packed up our goog gobs of laundry that I did the night before and set off for the Friendship Center for a meeting....came home to another special meeting ....the attendees of my meeting wished me well for the caucus...Ali ate and we went out to the car and then he had to pee pee and boo boo and I had forgotten my cell phone which I had charging because my day would be sunk without it...Nikki and Hannah assured me they would come to USC and though unable to vote would support my endeavor...Wilma Kiel my aunt also assured me she would come out to vote (and she did) and so at about 1:20p instead 1:00pm mind racing, nerves fazzled ... Ali and I were off to USC with my pile of 40 dollar flyers ....black and white and color....side bar...color is expensive and I already couldn't afford it and so I made some color and more black & white and btw brought at least half back home....
well I have to get Ali and go to work...I was out on Friday ...but today is Monday and we have staff meetings and I was on the phone too much yesterday which I realize I am on the phone toomuch a lot so I am working on that....my second mom reminded me while on Christmas vacation ..."he is only acting out to get your attention" ... he voice rings in my head and I am beseiged with guilt all the time but I am working on balance and freedom (I stole that from Algebra Bassett's bio) ....but balance means I must make his lunch and his break fst right now as well as get out our toothbrushes.....with 35 mninutes before we must get out of here...I will pick with the details of sunday and hopefully add the pictures of the day which I have updated my space and facebook with
to be continued
