Spring break!

I know some of you are really looking forward to spring break, around here it's next week. We got a call from our boss last night...he asked us if we would like to work 3 extra days next week. So we get to work Monday through Saturday next week. Extra days means extra money. He asked us a few weeks ago if we would be willing to work more days,he has some kids that work in other library's in Washington County,he said if they needed time off he would work where they work ,and we could work for him at the St.George branch...so I guess that's what is happening.

We are in for some sunshine next week with temperature's in the 70's all week,we'll be loving that!Jeff had to go out and take care of all the weeds that are starting to grow,and I think we'll be back to mowing the lawn again soon. I LOVE spring and I can hardly wait for it to be here, besides that the furnace gets to go off,that's great also.

We got a new high councilman over indexing about 2 month's ago...he came over on Tuesday night and Jeff got to train him on how to index. Brother Greer is trying to come up with a stake goal for indexing. We think after April 2 indexing will do great cause the 1940's federal census will be released and every one will be able to index again,doing something they know how to do instead of trying to figure out all the other projects that are a bit more difficult to do. We can hardly wait for something we understand also!

I guess we won't be traveling a lot this summer, the price of gas is getting beyond our reach, we figure we can go see Dad and Dockie,Annie and Gary, they are the closest. We have to save money to travel to Boise when our next grand baby is born sometime in September. So maybe we'll have to camp out at Pine Valley...it's close. I want to go camping...I miss that we don't go as much as we used to.

That's it for now...Keep Smiling!!!

"Back" to normal again

Goodness February went by fast! We were able to start that month off with going to Brit's for a baby blessing.Monty looked sooo pretty,and we enjoyed the luncheon at Suzan's afterword. Anngee and Shane put us up for a couple of nights while we were there. They fed us some awesome pulled pork,so good! When it was time to come home,I felt like my back was going out....it did! Stupid back, I was down for a week. Finally when i got it feeling better...we were able to change the furniture around in our guest bedroom. We got a dresser and nightstand from dad and dockie,so we needed to reconfigure that room so everything would fit. It turned out pretty good!

Then a few days later i decided my house needed a deep cleaning...the house looked great, but it put my back out again. We had decided we wanted to go to Alamo to visit Dad and Dockie,and Annie and Gary. We wanted to see how dad and dockie's kitchen turned out. It looks Awesome, their whole space turned out really nice.We enjoyed visiting all our visit,it's always fun to hang out with Annie. She's so nice...she gave me a sewing machine. I'm going to see if I can figure out how to sew! Anyway the whole visit my back was out,and it stayed that way till this morning,it finally feels like its "back" to normal!! So for the month of Feb. my back was out for 3 weeks.It's the pits when that happens!!!

We are excited to have dad and dockie visiting us this time, they came Tuesday and will be here till after church on Sunday. We went to chuck-a-rama one night, and we played cards Jeff and Dockie won...but it was fun!! We (me and Jeff) have to go to work for tonight and tomorrow night and the next night..but it's for only 2-2 1/2 hours,then we'll be back to harass them.They are going to church with us on Sunday so they can say good bye to the ward,cause they didn't get a chance to before they moved to Alamo! Then after church some friend's in the ward invited us to their house for dinner. Then they are headed back home. We still are having a hard time with the fact that they moved,but we do enjoy the visit's we get to have with them.

So that's it for us this month...Keep smiling!

Demon kitty

As you might know we have 2 cats that we really love and enjoy,Fluffy and Petal. They are great with each other,and even our dogs. Then last Feb. our daughter Kimi asked us if we would care for thier 2 cats till they found them another place to live( they are staying with Jesse's parents until their luck changes) At first they said it would be a month or two. The 2 cats they brought are Serina and Chloe. At first they stayed hidden in the middle room under the bed...it took them a couple of weeks to come out and wander around. They were both lovable at first... then something changed Chloe decided she didn't want the other cats around her(even Serena,who she's been with ever since he was born) At first she would just attack our Fluffy(fluffy is the sweetest kitty) then she started going after Petal ,Petal tried to hold her own ground but Chloe was just too mean ...pretty soon my cats just try to stay out of her way. This meant they would stay outside, they would only venture to come in when they were hungry. Soon Chloe(Demon kitty) figured out how to get outside ,she would go on the attack every time she saw them,inside or outside. We finally decided we would have to put Demon kitty in the middle room all by herself, so our other cats could come inside. Then that Demon kitty figured out how to open the door. Totally frustrated we just had to keep an eye on Demon Kitty ,and when we would hear an attack happening,we would grab her and put her in her room. Then she decided it was time to attack the dogs, ....you ought to see her run when the dogs go after her. The dogs DON'T like her now. Well a couple of days ago demon came up with another way to go after our cats... we have a doggie door, now she sits by it and waits for one of our kitties to come in that doggie door,and she runs and hits that door and it hits the cat's trying to come in. She hisses at them, and doesn't let them in. Now our cats won't use the doggie door, they meow at the front door to be let in. When Demon kitty wants out of her room and she can't get the door to open she hits the door over and over again, we try to ignore her , but at 2a.m. it really gets annoying.
Now this is our dillema Chloe when she is with you on a one to one basis...she is so lovable she head butts you and purrs and it so sweet and it's hard to believe this is the same kitty that is causing all the grief that she does. She's Kimi's kitty we love our children and grandchildren sooo much,and we want them to be able to have both their kitties when life turns around for them. It's just somewhat frustrating...and we are stuck between a rock and a hard place. I guess I just needed to vent. I feel much better now!!!

Summer is officially here, we've hit the century mark and above now. It's totally okay with me,because we had a long wet spring.I still absolutly love living in St.George,I just wish more of our family would move here!!(I know nobody can stand the heat,but it really isn't that bad)

We are headed up to Salt Lake and Boise again,we leave for Salt Lake July 2, and then onto Boise on the 3, for Echo's blessing, we are taking Kimi and Britteny with us, we are going to have a fun trip, I'm excited. We are happy that we get to see Rochelle, Scott, and that sweet little family. We are headed back to Salt Lake on Sunday night. We need to thank Shane and Anngee and family for putting me and Jeff up for 2 nights, the added plus is, it's always fun to get to visit with Shane and Anngee. And we also need to thank Brit for letting Kimi stay with her, otherwise we wouldn't be able to go all the way to Boise without thier help!

We had a technology meltdown at our house, my computer died last month ,so we got a new computer, then last week our t.v. died, the second t.v. to die in six months. Any way we got a second new computer,so me and Jeff both have good computers at the same time. Now we need to look into getting a new t.v., I'm not sure when that will happen, but we are learning to adjust to a little t.v. in our frontroom for now any way.

So I was watering my indoor plants this last week, and there is this one plant that Brit gave me a year and a half ago, it's a pretty plant that sits in a Rooster panter , it's about 2 feet tall. Any way when she gave me the plant she accidentally left the price tag on it, let's just say it wasn't cheap...so, i thought "I'm going to take such good care of this plant" I've watered it every week and made sure it got plenty of sunlight. This time when watering, a piece of the plant fell off, I was like "oh no" and I looked closer ...the plant is PLASTIC!! Crazy huh! I had convinced myself that the plant was growing, and that it was getting more red leaves. I called Brit about it, she thought it was real also...Kimi swears it's real,cause she say's it's grown. at any rate I'm going to stop watering it, we'll see if it goes brown, and i'm putting it where the sun don't shine!!! It did make me laugh though,it's a funny story, although I do feel a bit stupid!

I hope everyone is doing well...Keep Smiling!

Finally Sun and Fun

Man it seems like it was a cold spring(even for St.George)! Here it is the 3 of June and we still haven't had to turn on the A.C.,usally by now it's been over a 100 degrees and we are really warm trying to find a way to cool off.
Me and Jeff went on a little trip last weekend. We went to Elsinore on Friday. Me and Nadine and Terry and Loralee went to mother's grave and put flowers on it ,and spruced it up so it looked nice. We saw Twila while we were there, it's fun to see your cousins that you don't see too often. We spent the night at Nadine's,watched a few good movies, we had a very good meal...Nadine is so good to us. Saturday Morning we got up and went to West Jordan, we got to spend time with Shane and Anngee and family. We all went to Midvale to place flowers on Grandpa and Grandma Floyd's grave. We went back to Shane's. Later me and Anngee and Boo went to Copperton to the cemetary there, she needed to place flowers on her grandparents grave's. Then Anngee drove me around that cute little town,sooo cool I had never been there. We went back to Anngee's and we fixed dinner, and watched a movie. Shane and Anngee are good to us also. Then we got up early on Sunday morning and headed for Boise to see Chelle and Scott and family ..they welcomed a new baby to thier cute little family,and we decided we were half way to Boise when we were in Salt Lake,we might as well go see our new granddaughter Echo, she is so precious, it was great to see the Brunson family and hold that sweet little Echo. They fed us lunch,it was really good. I held Echo for a little while longer...and then we were off agin ,headed back to Shanes. We were on the road 11 hours on Sunday, we had a major case of T.B. when we were through. We got to watch another movie when we got back to Shane's. We even got to see Pat and see some picture's on the progress he's making in building his new home. We got up and Shane fixed us breakfast , they are alway's doing stuff for us. I forgot to mention we did get to see Max and Mark and family for a short visit on Sunday night. Chelle asked us if we could take Max this excersice thingy,so we did, and got to see them. Anyway, we left for Elsinore again on Monday morning. Nadine let us take a tiller, we are hopeing we can make it work for our yard. We got home about 3:30 p.m.. Thanks to our Kimi for taking such good care of our animals while we were gone, she's good to us too.
Then we were happy to get to have Annie and Gary come and see us on Tuesday night. Gary had a dr's appt early on Wednesday morning, so we were excited that they wanted to spend the night at our house We went to Chuck A Rama and ate there. Annie helped us with our computers...and we had fun visiting with them.
We had a very busy but fun week... we usally just sit around and look at each other....so this was great. We hope everone is doing good....Keep Smiling!!

Animals galore...so much fun!

So as most of you know , we have 2 dogs and 2 cats. The dog's names are Dolly, and Harley. The cat's name's are Fluffy and Petal. We have been taking care of Kimi's cats for her for a while until their situation change's and they can get them back. Her cat's names are Sirena,and Chloe. The cats are bigger than the dog's except for Chloe. This morning I went outside to water my garden ,and all the animals followed me outside. Our Harley is a ball of endless energy, he was running around the back yard going in circles so blasted fast, when all of a sudden our cat Petal decided she would attack Harley. Harley loved it ..and egged her on ,the 2 of them chased each other all around the yard. Kimi's cat Sirena decided to climb up the tree to get out of the way. Fluffy decided she would watch all the fun by me...Chloe was under the chair and attacked Fluffy...and Dolly just laid there and watched. Soooo funny...all these animals trying to coexist with each other when each one is so different from the other one. I love them all so much,and I love the way they keep me entertained. Our pet's are the best. I love sitting at the computer trying to do my indexing, with Fluffy laying right in front of my computer screen ,and Harley by my feet , trying to get me to play with him, Petal and Chloe hissing and growling at each other down the hall,Sirena on our bed asleep and Dolly on Jeff's lap in the front room both sleeping! My life would be totally boring if I didn't have all these fun animals!!!

Time goes by fast...even if you aren't having fun!

It hasn't even reached Sept. yet, and I'm posting a new blog!! August has been somewhat warm here, I look forward to being able to turn off the A.C. and opening windows. We should be able to do it by mid Sept. We want to turn our wood burning fireplace into a gas one. We are doing this cause it's cheaper than trying to fix our furnace that doesn't work....so if we have the gas fireplace and a space heater in our room , that should do the trick for us ,because our home is small.
Petal (the cat we got in June) has finally figured out the pet door,and goes in and out as she pleases now. She gets along great with our dog and our other cat now also,she has an anoying meow and leaves furballs where ever she goes because she is so hairy. She has some mats,we've tried everything to get them off, we think maybe we'll have to shave her. (hey girls remember when you shaved Kittan)Maybe I can get the girls to shave Petal!!
Jeff and dad went to Lander to plumb a house for a friend in the ward here,and was gone for 5 days. I was so glad when they came home. I don't enjoy being by myself for that long. Today they are up working on the Bishops cabin in the Kolob canyon area. Dad and Dockie are leaving Sunday to go on a vacation with her son Dwight...they are headed to the redwoods in California. We will clean the Workforce Services building all week for them, they should be back the following Sunday.
Kimi and Jesse and family came and spent the night last Tuesday, then left Wednesday night for Vegas, they will come back on Sat.or Sun. night and spend the night another day or two. I'm glad we are on the way to Vegas, cause we get to see our kids when they are headed to Vegas. We get Rochelle, Scott and her family in Sept. ,we can hardly wait to get to see them next.
Well I guess this is it for now, I hope everyone had a super summer..Cause i think it's almost time for Fall. Keep Smiling!!

We're empty nesters again!

Our sweet family of houseguests have decided to go back to thier home in West Jordan. We are missing them...and we are getting use to the "quiet".We were able to go and help them move , we did a game of switcher-roo, we traded our bunk bed and a chair for a King size bed and a lawn mower. Our trip there and back was interesting, we took Rae and 2 of thier 4 cats with us,we followed Jesse, Kim,Payton Little Jesse and Logen,and thier other 2 cats. They pulled a trailer full with all the stuff they had, plus the aquired items they have gotten since they moved to St.George. We got there( West Jordan) and they unpacked and we took a fridge to Shane's house ,then we went back to Kimi's and loaded the bed and lawn mower, and got ready to travel home. Our tarp didn't completely cover the bed, it looked like it "could" rain ,so Jesse offered us another tarp .Jeff said no it wasn't going to rain. So we headed for home, when the raindrops landed on the windshield Jeff said it doesn't count as rain unless he had to turn on the windshield wipers, the rain happened a few times, but the windshield wipers never went on.. It was a long day we got up at5:00a.m. and left St. George at 6:30 a.m., we got back to St.George at about8:30P.M. We had to put oil in Jeffs truck every 40-45 miles at 3 quarts each time ,we spent 100 dollars on just oil, we need to get his truck fixed!!!
So since we've been empty nesters again we have been rearrangeing all the rooms in our house. We had to move beds around we put the King size bed in our room and moved the 4 poster bed to the guest room. ,I think we are through with moving stuff, now we are in the process of cleaning out closets and then some drawers. I can hardly wait till everything is done...we also cleaned out the camp trailer...and got it back to normal.
So we have been blessed with another beautiful new cat. Our friends the Telfords gave us thier 1,100 dollar cat . Her name is Petal, she's gorgeous ...and she loves to talk alot like fluffy , Dolly (our dog) gets along well with both cats, the cats are not quite getting along yet, we figure it will take a few weeks, but both cats like Dolly, go figure!
On Memorial day we got to go to mDad and Dockie's for a barbecue, it was good, and fun, we don't seem to see them as much as we used to , cause they are gone so much with thier calling at the Meadows.
We finally turned on the A.C. on friday, it finally got hot like 98 degrees, it's suppose to be around the 105's for the rest of the week, so Summer is here. We are looking forward to a great summer.
That's it for now, keep smiling!!

January is gone!

Hi
This month went by soooo fast. It was a good month, we had fun when our good friends Wayne and Jean Perkins come for a visit from Midvale. Jean and me served together in many calling's while we lived in Midvale,and we became good friends. Her husband just retired and so they have more free time on thier hands. Jean is the Relief Society in her ward currently,and he's the executive secretary, so they still don't get to go places too much, but we enjoyed our day together. We went to lunch at Poncho and Lefty's and talked and talked and talked. I wish they would move here, it would be so much fun.
Kimi and Jesse and family are doing well. We've lived under the same roof for a little over 2 months,and we still are getting along. It's so much fun to have someone to talk to while Jeff is reading. We are blessed because Jesse love's to cook ,and he's very good at it, a little too good, I think I'm gaining weight again(I have to blame someone other than me). Me and Kimi get to go to the store and do window shopping and such, I love having them here, it's good. They stay up alot later than we are used too, but they also sleep in a little longer than we do, but we are adjusting to each other's schedule okay. The kids are doing good also, they love to play outside and play video games, they are so full of energy. Kimi Rae and Payton have been coming to church with us on Sunday's and Kimi is now my visiting teacher partner, plus she recieved a calling yesterday as Baby blanket assistant coordinator, she gets to help make blankets, and give them to the new mother's in our ward. One thing about Kimi is she wear's these shoes that make her like a foot taller, so she is alway's asked to help when we need someone tall to help reach thing's at church, she is so good to help with a smile.
Our Corky has had a rough time of late, he went blind then he lost his hearing, and all he could do was walk in circles, on the 25th we noticed he was really quiet and not eating, we loved him and held him, we knew he was close to dying, he passed away at 8:00 p.m., we buried him out back under our tree, he's by Cockers and Tippy, no more animals are allowed to die at my house, I'm through, it's too hard when they pass, sooo they just have to live forever, I hope Dolly is listening.
Jeff's birthday was on the 26th, he got lot's of books and movies, and Jesse baked him a cake plus Kimi and Jesse gave him a couple of really fun shirts., we went out to dinner and saw the movie Avatar(very good movie). All in all it was a good day for him .Thanks to all who made the day special for him.
So Dad and Dockie got this new calling to go to the "Meadow's " for 2 years. So they had to have thier record's moved there. The Meadows is an assisted care facillity, and they help them with Indexing and that kind of thing. We are missing them coming to church with us, we have been sitting next to them in church for 8 years, now they are helping another ward with indexing and we lost 2 of the best indexer's we've had.
We are still indexing in our ward, the goal is lower this year and things are going well for us with that calling. As for me ,I have the lesson on Fast Day,and I'm nervous, you'd think I would get use to this, but it still scares me. I'm in charge of the Birthday social in March, I think I have that under control and all is going good.
Tomorrow Annie is coming to St. George, and we are spending the day together, I am looking forward to it,we will have fun.
I hope all is well with everyone, till next time Keep Smiling!

2010

It's a new year,I am hoping things get better...but, I'm not going to hold my breath! We had a super fun Christmas, It's so much fun watching children open gifts!!! Jesse and Kimi brought in thier air mattress and slept on the frontroom floor, so they could make sure Santa didn't wake the kids when he came in, I'll post a picture, it was crowded but sooo much fun! We exchanged names with Jesse and Kimi's family, so on Christmas eve ,we had our Christmas dinner and told the Christmas story from the bible ,and opened our gifts that we drew names for. ...This was the latest i've ever slept in for Christmas, we opened presents at 8:30 a.m. We got awesome gifts from our children, lots of pictures of our beautiful grandchildren, everyone knows how much we love picture's. Kimi and Jesse gave us tickets for a dinner and a movie,plus cute picture's, Max and Mark made us a levi quilt, plus pictures, Shane and Anngee gave us a movie a book and a fingernail conditioning kit, plus a picture of Brax. Chelle and Scott gave us beautiful framed picture's of thier children, and Britt and Raymond gave us picture's of thier children.Dad and Dockie gave us money and we gave them money, so all in all we were super spoiled. And I might add we have the most beautiful grandchildren ever, just come to our house and look at all thier picture's.
On New year's we watched a bunch of good movies, with Kimi and Jesse, and then went outside and watched the fireworks at Midnight, and yelled happy New Year to everyone, then went to bed. The next day we had to throw out everything in our freezer, cause somehow the freezer got turned off, and everything it there was thawed and warm. I thought this is a great start to the new year. Our furnace quit working a couple of weeks before Christmas, we spent $132.00 on a part to fix it.... it still doesn't work, soooo thank heavens for the space heaters we have, and the fact we live in St. George, we manage to keep the house at at least 70 degree's , so it's all good.
Our dog Corky is having issue's, he went blind a couple of weeks before Christmas, we think he has cateracts, we can't afford to take him to the vet to have his eye's fixed, he was still doing okay untill a couple of day's ago, I think we may have to put him down, I'm not sure yet.
We are loving having Kimi's family live with us, we don't have to worry about thing's being too quiet. The girls are doing good in school, and little Jesse loves to play nintendo 64, the kids play outside alot, and they have alot of energy. We have kittens and cat's everywhere, and needless to say I have a new kitty, Precious. Kimi and Jesse inherited Britts cat mow mow, and it loves to hop in the dryer when we take clothes out of it, he's a strange silly but pretty cat. He's totally little Jesse's cat, they love each other and sleep by each other. The kittens are fun to watch play with each other.
Our ward indexing ended at 281,065 names, so we exceeded our goal,the bishop was very pleased, we don't know the goal for this year yet, we will find out this week at ward conferance, i'm sure.
We hope all is well with everyone and that you all have a prosperous new year, till next time,Keep Smiling!!

Going Away Party

For those of you who may not know this, Jeff's mom passed away on March 17th. She was creamated soon after.This weekend there is a memorial for her. It's being called a "going away party". I'm not sure how it will go, but it will be a first for me and Jeff. I guess it's a nontraditional&unconventional way to have a memorial.All I know is that they will place her ashes either next to or with her husband,who passed away a year before me and Jeff were married. Then afterward they are meeting at a park, across from the cemetary, then I guess people will tell some of thier memories of her. Jeff's mom didn't have life insurance,and everyone is either not working or having a rough time financially so this is the way it's going to be done. Sowe'll see how it goes.
We will be spending Saturday night at Kimi's house,and she will be coming to St.George with her family,and they will be spending the night at our house. That way she can keep take care of our dog's for us, and we can take care of her cat's for her. We will take our time coming home from S.L.C.,we will stop off in Elsinore to see Nadine, I'm looking forward to that, cause it's been quite a while since we've seen her. She invited us to have dinner with her and Coy, it will be fun to chat with them. We should be home sometime Sunday night.
I hope every one has a super weekend!!

Sad and Glad at the same time.

Tonight at around 8:00 P.M. Jeffs mom passed away. She hasn't been well for a long time, so maybe it's a blessing. We haven't seen her much,for that I feel bad. Jeff says she's in a better place, and she is having a family reunion. She is going to be creamated, and I think Jeffs family is planning a memorial service for her sometime,not this weekend ,but the one after this.Our Daughters Brit and Kimi went to see her last night, so they got to say goodbye to her.We are glad they got to be with her.We had planned to go to Salt Lake tomorrow to say goodbye, and Jeff was going to give her a blessing, but, she went before we could get there. That's what happens when you prograstinate, we should have tried to go earlier. We just haven't had the funds to go, now it's to late.
She was a sweet lady, she got her endowments the same day that me and Jeff got ours.She had a fun laugh,she enjoyed watching t.v. and doing the t.v. guide crossword puzzels. There was a time while we lived in Midvale,that mom,laura,and Denise would come over on Saturdays and do thier wash, and we would visit with them.Mom loved to tell us stories about things her and her husband used to do. Jeffs dad passed away before we were married, so that's how we knew him was by the stories we heard from Jeff's family.
We are happy she has gone home to be with her family, and we know she is having a great time seeing all her loved ones again. We love you, and we'll see you when it's our turn.

New addition to our family.

Last FridayI went to the dentist to have one more tooth pulled---he pulled three. I am so ugly, it's very depressing. I don't go any where. I try not to talk to any one,if I do I keep my head down. I do go for walks with dolly and Jeff, and I go to help clean the building that we clean on Monday nights. The children I watch still like me even though I look bad. So Jeff finally caved in today and agreed to take me to the animal shelter,so I could pick out a dog. I've been missing George, and when we go for walks Jeff walks Dolly and I just tag along.So I picked out a 3 year old yorkie terrier, I've decided to call him "Scooter". He didn't have a name, he was a stray. So we've had him almost 3 hours,and he still can't figure out the doggie door, but he follows me around, and he follows Dolly, she's not sure what to think yet, she used to all the attention, so she has her nose bent out of shape. On Monday he has an appointment at the vet to be fixed and get his shots. Tomorrow he will get a trim and bath, me and Jeff will do that here,we'll see how that goes.I can tell he hasn't been in a house alot, but I think he likes it.
I think next week we will have to do some yard work, the weather is soooo nice and I think we need to turn the water on outside and mow the lawn ,and then start watering the lawn. If this nice weather keeps up, we should be able to turn off the heater, which would be great.
Well tomorrow will be interesting , our home teachers have asked us to go to thier house to play card games( I think they feel bad for us cause we have been such homebodies because of my toothless situation), so we are going to learn a new card game,and hang out with someone other than family,which hasn't happened for about 7 years. They are nice people, pretty close to our age, they've been married 1 year longer than us. It should be fun.
I hope every one has a great weekend, and keep blogging, I love reading them.

Just another update

Life is going okay for us. We got to go clean 3 different buildings this week. We work for the same guy that dad and Dockie work for, his name is Kim. He says he will use us when he needs to go out of town or something. We will work every Monday night cleaning the same building that dad and Dockie clean Tuesday through Thursday. I also watch a couple of children for a few hours a week. But every little bit helps.
The weather here has been a little cold,but,all in all, I would rather be here than Salt Lake in the cold and the inversion. We walk Dolly everyday, so that gives us some exercise. We have been cleaning out closets,and trying to figure out what to do with all our junk. We have had a few people call and come look at our trailer, we cleaned the trailer out also, we got it all clean on the inside ,so we could feel good about showing it to people.
We haven't been doing any thing else, Our life is pretty boring, but we are alive and well. We miss the kids and grandkids, we know they are all trying to hang in there, life is a little hard right now. We love you guys,bye for now.

Same stuff different weel.

Hi to every one.
We still haven't found jobs, but I do get to watch some children, and that helps out a little bit. Pat is still suppoting us, he is always there and we can't thank him enough for his love and concern.
We took out our pomegranite tree out front, it was sort of a pain, but the front yard looks better we think. Then Jeff cleaned out the shed out back, now he can find things. We take Dolly for a walk daily, and we sit outside and enjoy the sunshine.
We went to church today, it was so good to be back in our ward. People are so nice they all welcomed us back ,it was great.
We got a digital reciever from the neighbor next door, so now we can watch the news on 2 different stations, it's really great.
Well that's all thats going on with us, I still enjoy reading the blogs, I get to read them on Sundays, so keep smiling1

Jobless in St. George

So, it's Sunday and dad is letting me use his computer again.We've had a week of job searching, and are still jobless.We are trying but nothing is out there that we can do. I,ve been a few places and filled out applications, but no call backs.So all we can do is just keep trying and hope and pray that something will work out for us.
We got to go with Dad and Dockie on an I.C.L trip ysterday. It was alot of fun, we got to travel Whitney Pockets,somewhere south of Mesquite,it's all on backroads and some of the roads are a little bit rough, but it is fun and we enjoyed the day. Dad and Dockie are so good to try and help keep us entertained.
We have found that if we go out to the trailer and turn on the T.V. out there that we can watch the news on a St. George channel so we can know whats going on in the world. It gets 4 channels out there, we just get the retro channel in the house.
Today we went to Stake Conferance ,and we got a nwe Stake Presidency, the new stake presidency will be super, they are all very good men ,and I'm sure they will do a fantastic job. Stake Conferance started at 10:00 we went at 8:30 to get good seats. It worked we got good seats we were comfortable.
We hope every one is doing well, Leana we hope you are all better soon. We love all of you. Take care till next time
