I am hoping this reaches you. I am not sure what has happened with JPay but I can no longer email you? I hope it’s nothing bad. Anyways I just wanted to say Merry Christmas & wish you all the best. Stay strong. Tiggi
Hello Dee. I saw your note over a week ago and have been thinking about the best way to respond (I tend to overthink things...). I guess first step is to actually transcribe the menus and post them. This is of course "overeating season" -- which runs from TG to January 2. Then comes "diet season" -- dozens of ads/emails/posts re how to "lose those holiday pounds." That lasts for two or three weeks, then it's back to the usual with "super bowl blowout" season and so on. Maybe getting the idea out now wouldn't be a bad idea. I'll try to type up the menus today. Probably posting on FB and twitter would be a start, at least. (In general, I feel guilty about being overfed in a world that still sees a lot of problems due to lack of food. The numbers from parts of Africa are awful...)
Daniel, your truly correct. However one course doesn't change the person the person has to want to change. I don't think the Reforming program should be offered to everyone right from the start I think it should be offered after the INMATE has proven his/her good behavior and wants to better his/her life by choosing to do the programs offered to you all because he or she really wants a second chance. otherwise keep up the positive attitude and continue fighting for a more JUST system of reformation. Happy holidays.
Focusing on you and staying away from the "high school drama" is always a bonus. Your right a lot of people never grow up and It is very sad. As teenagers growing up and going off to school getting wrapped up in the he said she said and the quick responses to the inappropriate behaviors. As Inmates reality states that you have nothing but time to waist... Wrong. you have time to Gain. Gain the tools of education the hopes of freedom and acceptance back in to your families homes and lives. Take the time to mend the broken bridges and really learn from your mistakes and right your wrongs and much as possible while your in so when you are let free you can have a fresh start. Mending the heart takes time and you all have that. Being able to sit down and write a story is amazing something I could never do. I am glad you have taken this opportunity to expand your mind and deliver a story. I hope to read it someday. Keep your head up and nose out of trouble and do you. Happy Holidays and know that your parents would be proud seeing you work hard to stay out of trouble.

I meant to tell you, there's a lot about you that I'm sure they'd be proud of. I know they love you.
Take care.
Thanks again,
