House full of blokes

  Crisp clear winter's day with a dog in a cold lake It seems to have been a particularly dreary winter. Cromwell always gets more than our fair share of fog and lack of sun but we seem to have had far more wet and grey than usual and I for one find that to be a real downer. It means I have to really work at motivation and enthusiasm at this time of year. I'm all for staying in bed and just letting the world happen around me. It is a bit difficult running a school and chairing a community board from bed so I have things that I do to help me get through. My doofus dog Rosco the rescue hound is a very active and playful dog. He needs plenty of running - a ball flinger and two tennis balls are essential bits of our dog care kit. Weekends mean getting up a hill in the hope of finding blue sky and an added bonus is if we can find snow. His enthusiasm just brings pure joy. He gives us a reason to get out and about however dreary and we always come home feeling refreshed.  On a schoo...

I am pleased to announce that I am standing for a third term on the Cromwell Community Board. There is just too much unfinished business to walk away now. I am thrilled that the big ticket items from the Master Plan have made it into the Long Term Plan to secure funding and lots of work is being done in the background to get these projects up and running. I really want the opportunity to keep the momentum going and to see the Hall and Mall projects progressed in a visible way for our community. I am an honest and hardworking representative for Cromwell a vote for me will be a vote for positive community leadership.
