It's startling to look at the calendar and realize how long it's been since I posted as well as how little time is left in the month. Training classes for the primary election are now over. I still need to sit down and read through my manual and make a phone call to a few Chief Judges before the big day, but no more driving into Raleigh until the weekend before the election. And while I miss the extra money that comes from working early voting and the excitement of assisting people vote, I am enjoying being at home these next two weeks. I printed out a sample ballot for us. I thought I could glance over it, research a candidate or two, then we'd be ready to head to early voting. I was quite shocked when I didn't recognize but one or two names on the ballot!! So I'm now about halfway through reading up on the all the candidates. Finally finished painting our bathroom. It's not professional, but it looks way better and it is done. Now to finish cleaning it!
