I've neglected to blog for about a month. It's not that I haven't had anything to say--no, it's just that I'm struggling to find the right balance on my subject matter.
I want this blog to be a combination of personal matters and politics. Last year-when i was an elected official-i tried pretty hard to avoid discussing specific decisions made by the city council.
Now that i've left elected office I'm finding that balance even harder. Although I often threatened that I'd become a critic after my term of office had ended that's not exactly what I have in mind.
I don't want to become one of those former elected who project sour grapes whenever they talk. I had a great run and I wish the current city council all the best.
That doesn't mean I'll give them a pass--no, I have some pretty strong opinions on the difficult subjects which will face this council and I will share those opinions. It just means my posts will be less frequent until I find the right balance of respectful comments on issues of legitimate interest.
