I woke up this morning hoping we had dreamed last night’s election fiasco. It is a hard fact to face that a special interest group (in this case, the REALTOR Association) can buy a Council and a Mayor’s seat. I am proud of my honey for working day and night to fight a good, honest fight against a nasty, lying smear campaign. We fought hard to keep the best Councilperson Provo has seen in a long time. She made our park a reality!

Thank you, Cindy!

We also dropped by Steve Clark’s campaign party, whose race was also lost to the developer/Realtor clan. A bright spot and highlight of the night for me was getting to meet Nie Nie. She is even more beautiful and amazing in person. Eli was a big hit and was right at home with all of the grandkids running around. It was more of a family party than a campaign watch party, which was nice for us to experience.

But then Joseph came in our room this morning and puked on the floor. A rude awakening to the reality of today.
