Four and One-Half Day Weekend

Happy New Year... a few days early! It has become a bit of tradition to release employees early on the workday preceding a holiday. Today, KHRC employees were sent home at 1PM to begin their New Years' celebrations. Obviously everyone has the first off, but they announced today that the office would be closed on the second as well. It seems that we will be observing a day of mourning for the loss of our dear former President, Gerald Ford. If anyone needs me Tuesday, I will be at home, very sad I'm sure, remembering the good old days under President Ford's leadership. (I love being a state employee!)
