Day 16 - “Poli” a Latin word meaning “many”; and "tics" - "small parasitic creatures”. April 29th 2011
I
I had some election signs in my garage from a number of years ago when I was CEO for the Wellington/Halton Green Party. I was not the right person for this position, because canvasing is totally against my beliefs. I feel that I should be able to shoot door to door solicitors with my paint ball gun. If I want to hear what someone has to yap about, I will seek them out. Don't bother me during my family time thankyouverymuch.
It was my idea for the party to adopt the stretch along highway 124, though admittedly I have yet to ever attend a road cleanup... and likely never will... picking up someone else's misplaced garbage at 9 AM on a Saturday hasn't been something I've made time for yet.
I do my part for mother earth by using my dryer less than a dozen times a year.
anyhow.
Returned the Election signs to their rightful Candidate last night. Minus a bunch of the wire frames, which I used for growing tomatoes during the summer that Sara lived with me....
At this point in my life, I feel that if I had to classify my political views they would fall under the category of "Anarchist"
If I do find myself near wherever I am supposed to vote on Monday with Election Card in Hand, I will cast my ballot. If not, It is because my current interest in politics is less than zero.
I have always felt that the Green Party is far too disorganized to run the Country. I am a huge fan of their Environmental Platforms, But I suppose I would like to see a Proportional Representation system adopted by Canada to support such a vast and diverse nation. Who knows...? I may even vote liberal this year. I've got good vibes about Micheal Ignatieff.
I would like to take this opportunity to wish Brent good luck in the upcoming election & thank him for returning some of my motivational tapes (yes yes, I am a motivational tape junkie...) AND with them was BEST OF ALL MY MISSING TRAILER PARK BOYS DVD!!!!fuck yeah!!!
Day 17 - Storage Solutions! May 1st 2011
*1 day behind in these posts due to complete and total exhaustion from awesome childcare job*
2 Ikea Cardboard Boxes.
They are white with red blue green and yellow polka dots.
Dimensions are 48x34x36cm
Ikea names them "Lingo Cirkel"
isn't that fun to say?
great for a kids bedroom.
1 brown (gold? bronze?) colored gift bag
It came with my birthday present from Nikki in it.
I generally save & re-use gift bags and tissue paper and wrapping paper
but this one didn't quite make it (no offense nik)
I will probably get rid of many "baby" themed gift bags in future post.
1 black portable file system.
probably I should be using this for my taxes because it has all the right slots
but I have not used it since its purchase when I was 15.
my accountant can confirm this.
1 metal (steel?) rack. Looks like it would also be awesome for hanging file folders...
I have stared at it for weeks trying to figure out what to do with it.
It came bolted into my kitchen cupboards... and I have never used it in the 5 years I have lived here...
I want to keep it so badly. I put Andree's book in one of the slots and thought I could use it to hang some books on the wall... or maybe a combo of books and the stash of people who don't live here's mail that gets delivered to my house.
But then I remembered I have bookshelves. and Sara might never come back for her Bank Statements. and Tory probably doesn't want her War Amps Key Tags so unusual metal rack is making the cut tonight
12 Children's Outfit Hangers.
I hang my clothes in a pile on the floor.
