What I forgot...

The podcast this past week was a nervous experience for me. Robert did put me right at ease, but there were a few things I forgot to point out.....

• During COVID I did not see my mom for 9 months as she was in a nursing facility. Alzheimer's is tough, especially when your elderly run away. She was in a safe place, but talking through Facetime daily was especially difficult. 
• After I complained about the trash in Goochland, I was put in charge of the trash committee through the Goochland County Board of Supervisors.
• For 2 terms, I was the Vice Chair of the Goochland Youth Advocacy Committee where we worked with at-risk youth.
• If elected, I want to have a monthly town hall meeting to educate residents on what is going on here. People have difficulty navigating the city website for information. Sharing information from the planning commission, city council, the mayor, and listening to the people is of utmost importance (transparency).
• After I turned 18, my best friend Karen and I registered to vote.  I had never felt so empowered in my life. I was so proud to represent our country. My first vote was in the 1988 presidential election between Dukakis and Bush.

That is it in a "nutshell."
