Me

Ok so I am opinionated and quick to tell people whats on my mind, and apparently Garden City Ga likes it. I've been offered an opportunity to help out the people of my wonderful city. They like my energy and spunk and are in need of a "hired gun".  A term Bobby used in putting perspective on the situation.  I'm excited to begin this new chapter. It's right up my alley. Politics, Helping others, Event planning, and Defending my city against people who would use this position for their own personal interests and the interests of a select few.  I actually have an opportunity to help make a difference in peoples lives not just now but for their whole lives. I feel like this is a answer to my personal prayer that God would use me to help people  and my heartfelt desire to get into politics. I know life is hectic right now and I know that this will only add to it but when things happen that are tough people are so quick to say God will never give you more than you can handle. So this is the promise that I will cling to. But I know that my whole life has been preparing me for this. I'm so excited.

I got bit last night

Last night I went to the first ever Garden City Town Hall meeting. I was mesmerized. Ok and a little bored at first. No lie they had this man who is a long winded pastor and the head of the Garden City Homestead Association go on and on and on about how he would like Council to give him funds yada yada yada.(aint't gonna happen).... ok then it got good. They opened the floor for people to air their grievances and to talk about (mostly that they wanted the GC government to give them a handout) what was most dear to their hearts. I saw the council and the city manager working together to resolve these peoples issues. They shared and mirrored my love for the city and it's residents, Even the dude who wanted us to start paying property tax so that we could offer programs to help him fix up his house (makes NO sense I know).
     Last night cemented my burning desire to run for city council. I will blog all the way about whats going on and give you an insiders view of a novice's journey into the government. I probably will only make it as far as the door, but either way it will be a memory.
If you know of any reading material to help me learn more about the campaign process, or would like to help in the way of volunteering or donations please let me know... or if you just have platform advice. I'll take all the help I can get.
