David is not here today.....He is in Yuma for a visit with Levi and Bridgette. Marilee goes to work at Banner Desert. Melissa sleeps till noon...that is just not right. I make a well agreement payment at Stockmen's Bank, in Coolidge. I then get some yogurt and light bulbs which I take to the Hardy's in Arizona City. I install the light bulbs in the outside light, above the front door. I take out their garbage for them. Back at Paradise I wash a lot of clothes. Melissa puts away the clean clothes for me. |
05 June 2004 .................................. Saturday former President Ronald Wilson Reagan dies today. Ronald Reagan was the best President of the 20th Century and maybe in all of US History. President Reagan WON the "Cold War". It was President Reagan's belief that "Government is NOT the solution to the Problem .............. Government IS THE Problem" As a result the US and the World had the greatest Economic Boom in Modern History. President Reagan got Americans to believing in America, again. |

10 June 2004 .......................................... Thursday When I took Melissa to school, I had the Horse Trailer hooked onto the pickup. I then drove to 44 S. LeSueur, Dad's Place. With Twila's help I loaded up the old fence, that had been torn down for a new fence. I was in sections and it was stacked in the carport behind Dad's house. It was a full load for the truck and trailer. Dad sat out side, on a chair, in the shade, and watched us load the fence. Being out in the heat, that long, exhausted him and he then went to bed. After loading the fence, I showered then walked across the street, to the Temple, where I did the "Initiatories" for 6 names that Twila and Sandra have prepared for Marcie's Husband, Todd Glassford. It was an honor to help my beloved Sisters in their good work. I was able to do this, today, because Marilee was the one bringing Melissa home from school.

We moved the computer from David's room to the North wall in the house. We have been counciled by the Brethren to keep the computer in plain view of the family so as to protect ourselves from the filth and porn available on the Internet, so today we made that move. |
