So the things I wanted to pass (prop 4) did pass. I can't talk about more local elections as that nails down where I live. I will say I had gone into the election planning to vote against the $$$$$ hospital district expansion until I read they want to add an additional trauma center.
The trauma center at Hermann hospital gave me an additional 18 years with Ron so I can't be a hypocrite. So I voted yes and so did most of the other voters.
I don't live in Rosenberg and they had many, many, things up to vote I felt sorry for them. I also voted for a cost of living adjustment (higher) for the retired teachers which passed.
Not crazy about the mayor but it was really a choice between Mr Piss and Mr Shit as Ron used to say. Neither is a good choice but one was worse, in my opinion. I won't say more.
Mom and Dad have gotten in the habit of calling me later. Dad has used the term "Congestive Heart Failure" 3 times now in conversation with me so he doesn't have a long lifespan. I'm not going to begrudge a sick old man his phone call. I'm just a little sleep deprived.
I guess I could go back to riding in to work with the neighbor and getting up later every day. I might do that Tuesdays I am thinking. I need to work the budget. I also need to figure out rides home Thursday and Friday this week. Ace seems happy for the business. I didn't call Jack because last month was the 1 year anniversary of his wife's death and I knew that would be hard.
When I did get to sleep I slept OK I woke up a couple of times but that is standard, and I'd had a lot of caffeine. My pay should "drop" today so that will be good. I need to get the food for the drive so I can take it to church on Sunday. I am looking forward to the shopping for that.
I might do another post before I leave but that's it for now.

"The trauma center at Hermann hospital gave me an additional 18 years with Ron so I can't be a hypocrite. " So you got 18 additional years of abuse with Ron. Not something I would brag about.
Well I have been thinking about this. You can say I had an epic love story where he came back from the dead for me. Or you can say he was an abusive drunk. Both are true
I believe he loved me as well as he could but we were both very, very, damaged. One reason I am not looking for another husband even though Ron wanted me to remarry .
