I visited Central Lake once and remembered a general store that took me back 
in time.  I loved the items that were made of cedar; love that odour.  Sang 
at the high school, for we had a choir member who sang there at that time.

I am with Joe. As far as I understand there would only be a dollar amount 
given for allotment other than services to be provided as part of  if an IPE 
(individual plan for employment ) if this plan has been developed then 
services have been outlined and those services must be provided. The only 
way a home phone line would be provided is if it is a direct need to secure 
employment, such as a home based business.

Have you developed an IPE with Julie Clark?  What you are saying just does 
not make sense
