<b>Welcome back everyone!<br>
<br>
I hope you all had a great Christmas and a restful break afterwards to
recuperate from all the hustle and bustle. I know my family and I
did. I even became part of the cell phone set while I was off! Santa
put a cell phone under the tree for me. (I don't know if it was
because I was good or just the opposite.) Evidently my husband and
daughter were tired of not being able to get hold of me when I'd be
gone in the car and decided I should catch up with most of the rest of
the world. Now I can text and bluetooth, and have different ring tones
to tell me who's calling. So after years of diligent studying to
learn the correct spellings of things, proper English, and typing, now
I have to learn how to spell with the minimum amount of letters to
speed up texting, to heck with proper English, and type with my thumbs
using my phone number buttons! U no wat I mean? IDK wat the world's
comng 2. I'm also discovering that carrying a cell phone around is
about as bad as smoking. It can be a pain. Smokers always have to
make sure they have their cigarettes and lighter with them, or they
have to go back for them, have to spend money on getting them and can't
use them in certain places. Cell phones are much the same and are also
supposed to cause cancer, I've heard. Fortunately, so far I haven't
broken the thing or lost it completely, ( though it may have been
slightly misplaced a couple of times.) It's a great convenience at
times, and a large pain at others. Just something else to get used to,
I guess. Wish me luck.<br>

You'll probably notice when you come for lunch that we have changed
from Pepsi to Coke in our dispensers. Don't anybody panic, we still
have Dr. Pepper for those of you who can't live without that, but no
more Pepsi and Mountain Dew. We have Regular and Diet in both Coke and
Dr. Pepper, and also have Barq's Rootbeer, Orange pop, and Sprite.
Right now the button that says Power Ade dispenses water I believe. I
don't know what the plans are for that yet. Enjoy.<br>
<br>
Expecting it to be cold like last week, I was actually going to suggest
that everyone might want to come over and have a cup of hot chocolate
today, but it looks like I'll have to revise that opinion. You'll be
glad to hear we're having ice cream for dessert today at lunch.<br>
<font size="+2"><br>
The menu for today includes:<br>
<br>
Chicken fried steak<br>
French fries<br>
Spaghetti with meatballs<br>
Mashed potatoes and gravy<br>
Sweet peas<br>
Baby carrots<br>
Winter blend vegetables<br>
Garlic bread<br>
Salad<br>
<br>
And Ice Cream and Toppings for dessert.<br>

Have a great day,<br>
