Our Town Elections were yesterday. For the first time in years we passed a town and a school budget, instead of having default budgets.
Also, I am now the only elected official in my household. The Chap's term on the Planning Board ended and the new board members are elected. He will now be home every other Wednesday night. Whether or not I'm also there depends on how long the House sessions last!
I took this photo in the lobby of the Legislative Office Building on Monday, before the subcommittee work session I attended. I was sitting with the Chap when I took it--he'd just finished up with the Stimulus briefing. My honorable car is parked right behind that stack of snow.
And here's a view today. It's rainy and drizzly and as you see, melting has occurred here in the city.
During lunch I walked up and down stairs--3 flights in the State House, both directions. Four flights in the LOB, both directions. A stairwell view.
Bars in the basement of the LOB. Not to keep me in, I remind myself, whenever I feel trapped...to keep me safe!
I think we'll get out before dark today. I have to put in an appearance at a School Board meeting tonight.
I hope my brain won't be too fried for fiction writing later. Or should I say, quality fiction writing.
Ah, here's the House Clerk...Speaker heading in. Gotta shut down the laptop pronto.
