Yeah, that happened. I’ll tell you about it a little lower in the diary because first I want to catch you up on the comings and goings of being a candidate.
I have a fifteen and a half year old daughter (who just got her driver’s permit), a thirteen year old son who becomes a bar mitzvah in three weeks, a wife, and a full time job. Those things alone (and all of the kids attendant activities) should keep a modern American man very busy. And they do. But I’m also still on the board of our local theatre group, the Chamber of Commerce, and I’m still a sitting City Commissioner. To say that my time is scheduled is an understatement. Add in a campaign/candidacy for City Council, and you get a guy who is constantly up to his neck in things to do. Very little down time – lots of stress. In fact, I haven’t fallen asleep before one in the morning in weeks and my body naturally wakes me up at around 5:45 (I still can’t get out of bed until 6:30 though). Yeah, this is tough stuff! LOL
