Expenditure Survey
Press Release from the Governor’s Office:
FRANKFORT, Ky. – A new online survey allows citizens across Kentucky to let Governor Ernie Fletcher know how they think the Commonwealth’s anticipated budget surplus can be best used.
The survey will remain online through January 25. The online survey asks participants to first rank several possible priorities which have been identified by the Fletcher Administration, or add their own. Participants can also view more information about the surplus, and have space to leave their own thoughts and comments for Governor Fletcher.
“It’s not often a Governor has an opportunity to go to the people to ask how to spend a state budget surplus,” said Governor Fletcher. “I encourage all Kentuckians to participate in a town hall meeting or complete this survey. Let me know what you think. I look forward to hearing from you.”
You can use a write-in item at the bottom of the survey to indicate your support for more funding for the arts.

Happy holiday, Sherry, in whatever form you choose to celebrate it. Just wanted you to know how precious your friendship is to me, and to wish you much joy in the new year.
I hope your boys are there with you in this special time. I’m fighting my way through my first holiday with one of my children gone and trying to accept the knowledge she’ll never be home for Christmas again. Change happens, whether we’re willing or not. I’m still unwilling, but trying to accept.

Thank you, Terry — you give me much more than I can ever give to you.
And thank you to every one who stops by here to read for your good wishes and your friendship. I am buoyed up by your love and you are each of you precious to me. I wish you all peace and joy all through your long and productive lives.
Alas, Terry, like you I am dealing with the fact that my family probably will not be home again for Christmas in the old way. And discovering that I don’t have as much emotional flexibility and generosity as I thought I did. It’s a sorrow universal to mothers I suppose.
Also with the fact that my fellows at home have been stricken with a stomach virus and at this point are pretty deeply into 7-Up and chicken broth. So it’s just as well that I’ve planned a simple holiday.
Fortunately for me, Christmas still centers around my 89-year-old mother and “the kids” are me and my ever-young siblings. I am more than fortunate to have that privilege.
