Are you as ready as I am for Election Day to get here and be gone? Social media has been so exhausting lately, right?

Well my favorite candidate is canvassing today in our neighborhood. If you get a door knock, peek out and see if Nick Melvoin is on the other side. This is what he looks like. 🙂 OK, maybe you’ll find this photo more helpful.

On the topic of our City Council race, Mike Bonin and Robin Rudisill are appearing tomorrow night at the forum hosted by the Westside Regional Alliance of Councils. WRAC is group of Westside Neighborhood Councils. All three candidates were invited. Initially Rudisill and Ryavec were pretty vocal about not showing for reasons that I don’t recall. Rudisill apparently figured out a way to change her schedule and Ryavec is submitting pre-recorded responses to questions. Bummer! I would loved to have seen all three interact with each other.

If you can’t attend, WRAC is live-streaming the event on its Facebook Page. If you are attending, WRAC wants you to know that Windward School is located at 11350 Palms Blvd., but the parking entrance is located at 3481 Sawtelle Blvd.

Who has a spare sewing machine?? A WISH teacher reported on NextDoor that she is teaching over 100 kids to sew on four machines and is asking for the community’s help in providing additional machines. If you don’t have access to NextDoor and want to help, email me at tracy@living90045.com and I’ll facilitate.
