Blogging

Blogging is something I miss very much; however, findig the time to do it is a difficult task. One would think that no longer putting in 10 to 30 hours a week into school, that I would have tons and tons of spare time on my hands. I don't. I'm trying to figure out where that time went. Of course, I've been playing catch up - at work and everywhere else in my life - so, maybe I should give it a couple more weeks, and things will settle down a bit. Time will tell.....

Einstein's Quote of the Day

I get an "Einstein Quote of the day" on my google home page, and today it was "When I was young, I found out that the big toe always ends up making a hole in a sock. So I stopped wearing socks." I was thinking that doesn't seem very Einsteinish, but then I thought - yuck, he must have not clipped his toe nails...that's the only way I can think of that your big toe would make holes. Did they not have toe nail clippers back then? I wonder.... Things that make you go hmmm.

City Council

I have been debating over the past few months whether or not to run for City Council in Sanger. It's a hard decision. It is a 2 year committment; however, it is only 2 nights a month. The thing is, I would totally ahte to run and lose, but is that really a reason to not try? No, Samantha, it's not! On the other hand, I keep asking myself - why do I really want to run? I've come up with several reasons: I love that community, Sanger is definitely where my heart is, I've been a part of it for so long that I would love to have the opportunity to be involved in it's future, I would liek to try to make a difference, and I think I would enjoy it.

On the other hand (how many hands do I have?) - I would like to work in Sanger again some day, and I would have to wait at least a year after serving on Council to be able to do that, but I can't see myself going back there within the next three years anyway... so what's the problem?

Well - I'll keep praying about it. I gotta decide soon though - it's almost time to pick up those election packets!!!
