Tonight's picture was taken in April of 2007. Mattie was five years old. April was Mattie's birthday month, but it also is the start of spring. A time Mattie loved, because he enjoyed nature and being outside! That day, we were checking out our flower boxes, trying to determine when to begin planting. I am glad I decided to snap a photo of my two boys.
Quote of the day: Today's coronavirus update from Johns Hopkins.
- Number of people diagnosed with the virus: 32,274,941
- Number of people who died from the virus: 574,978
I woke up today feeling queasy. A few minutes later a violent migraine came on. So it hasn't been a great day. In the midst of how I am feeling, I attended a tenants meeting today in my complex. The purpose of the meeting was for tenants to hear from the a few of the owners of the complex and their lawyer. Specifically because the owners are trying to apply for a new zoning designation for the property. Regardless of what happens, tenants will have to relocate for a significant period of time and perhaps return to the new complex in the future. Naturally tenants had many questions and I am not sure any of our questions were truly answered today. I have my own opinions but what truly troubled me was our neighborhood commissioners were at the meeting and unfortunately NONE of them are on the same page. One of them incensed me, a true politician. Never answered my question and wanted to lecture or talk over me. Sorry, that doesn't work with me. Therefore, an issue that should have been about the tenants, in my opinion became more political than it had to be.
The highlight of my day was I received this photo from my friend, Carolyn. This is Carolyn's daughter, Ellie. Believe it or not, Ellie and Mattie went to preschool together. Ellie has been involved with the Foundation, and is a good fundraiser too, since she was in elementary school!Ellie is kicking off our photo campaign in San Francisco. She took our Mattie Miracle sunshine to the Giants game last night!
