I opened my mail box late last night after coming back from Siempre Para Los NiƱo’s Christmas party in Mexico. http://www.siemprekids.org/
The wind was blowing, a little snow on the ground and 22 degrees. The first letter was the cable bill and the second and last was a letter addressed to Santa. OOOOOOOOOOOOOO the mail man had placed the letter in my box by mistake. Some kid, from somewhere in the world was wishing for gift, a doll, a dog or a dad or mom to come home and I could not answer their hearts desire. What was I going to do?
I looked at the return address—Riverside—I know where that is and it was from a Leta in Riverside. My Granddaughter! She was asking for things that were already on the sleigh, the reindeers are ready to fly and Santa’s was on his way! She signed the end of the letter- Love Leta. Yes Leta, dreams do come true and letters sent in love mealt the heart!
Papa Santa (Not the real one!)

ooma
Its a weird name but it works great. I got one for my Christmas present a few days ago. Yes it great to get those gifts a week before Christmas. Wish I would had received it 6 months ago! Christmas in June would be great!
Every time I opened my phone bill for my home phone-- I saw those taxes and the taxes on the taxes. Fees for the fees !!! What a great idea for a phone company! So I hooked up the ooma to my computer and now I have free home phone with no taxes and fees. A great idea for me! Just a DSL line ( not taxes or fees with a dry-loop line) and I have service.
Just one bad thing--if the power goes out at home--no ---"PHONE HOME".

A Poly Grip Thanksgiving
We served over 3400 meals on Thanksgiving day! What a great time helping those in need. This morning in the office I received a call from one of the households that received a dinner. She told me that the meal was great and she said “THANK YOU, THANK YOU, and THANK YOU! She told me how the two ladies were great but she had not heard back from them. She told them she needed some poly grip for her teeth and she was thinking they were going to come back with some to help her out. I told her that we were only serving dinners that day and I didn’t think they would be back with the poly grip. I told her I was sorry for the mistake. I guess next year we better get a case of the stuff as back-up!
Good thing our turkey was cooked so good and it melted in her mouth and she didn’t need her teeth!
