01 June 2007 ................. Friday Lots and lots of visiting today.........................I fixed a fuel leak on the boat by installing a fuel shutoff valve on the Forward Tank and replacin the fuel hose from the Forward tank to the tank switching valve. |
02 June 2007 ................... Saturday Marilee and Ann and Sofia and Melissa and I go to Sahuaro Lake today. We just drive the boat up the lake to "Our" swimming hole, the put down the Anchor and swim for awhile. On the way home we have a blowout on the Boat Trailer, RR wheel. Marilee and I changed the wheel/tire in just a few minutes and still got to Paradise in time to get ready for the David Welcome Home/Melissa Baby Showere, Bonfire and Weiner Roast and Hay Ride. It was a wonderful evening with lots of people here. |
03 June 2007 ................ Sunday Stake Conference Today. There are still lots of people here from the Welcoming home of Elder Gunderson. |
04 June 2007 .................. Monday Sara and David go to get Bridgette/Gaia from Jon's but she won't come with them. Then at noon I get a call that I must go get Bridgette/Gaia "right now", so I do. [huh] Seems like a long hard day today and I am very hungry and tired. Ann, Sofia, Sara, David, Melissa, go to Tuscon for a visit with their Dad. Bridgette and I go to get Brent's car, in Casa Grande, but it will not start. |
05 June 2007 .................. Tuesday Here, in Paradise, this morning are Marilee, Ann, Sofia, Bridgette, Gaia, Sara, David, Melissa, Myself. It is a beautifully Sunshine Day and I love it. |
09 June 2007 .................. Saturday I did a lot of Area Auditor Work today. I had home teaching visits with Sister Haines and Sister Anguiano and Sister Proctor and Brother Nichols. Went to Pilot, in Eloy and filled Silverado with fuel. While visiting Troy Nichols, at the corner of Overfield and Milligan, Sister Perkins came by and said she had some buckets of paint to give me so when I headed for home I stopped at her place and got them. I fixed supper of Hamburger Steak and Baked Potatoe and Corn on the Cob. Marilee and I were the only one here to eat it. It sure was good. Sara and David and Melissa and Brad went to Tucson. David and Rachel and Thomas came later, after I had gone to bed. |
10 June 2007 ................. FAST Sunday Marilee and David and I met with the Casa Grande Stake High Council at 7amMST. David gave them a report about his mission to Canada and he spoke to them in both Spanish and French. Jeremy Pierson was also there to report and did so, after David. David and Marilee and I had a nice visit, in the Chapel, as we waited for Sacrament Meeting to start at 9am. I sent a FAX to SLC, Audit Dept, but I learned, tomorrow, that they never received it?? Fast and Testimony meeting was great and I am glad I was there, for it. Sister Haines was not at Church, so I called here and learned that she was too ill to attend! After the Block, David left with Rachel and Thomas while Marilee and I drove home, via Jimmy Kerr and Selma where we saw Bridgette and visited with her for a bit. I drove the Malibu to Lara's [Sister Lara, Angela, Cody] where I had a nice home teacing visit, going briefly through Phillipians and Colossians. I challenged them to each write up an answer to the question, "What is Heaven". I took Cody with me and we did our Home teaching to the Lamoreaux Family [Jacob, Deanna, Kiera]. It was a good visit, covering the same Scriptures and the same committment as to "What is Heaven".,br> After taking Cody back home, I then went home, to Paradise, and spent a very pleasant evening with my beloved family. This evening, Rachel and Thomas drove back to Snowflake, then called so we would know that they arrive safely. |
11 June 2007 .................... Monday Marilee went to a class, in Mesa, and took everyone with her. Everyone amounts to Sara, David, David, Melissa. The kids are to visit Grandmother while Marilee is in her class. I called Audit Department, JoAnn, and learned that they did NOT receive the FAX I sent them yesterday so drove to Casa Grande and sent it again. Then I called here, again, and she verfied that she did receive it, this time I called Audit Department, Dahlgren, and we talked for some time about, Expense Report and Other Account and Local Depository Bank Accounts. It was good to talk to him. I called Audit Department, Brother Hunt, and talked about the East Stake and learned that Part 2: was marked true but Part 4: was written up with an exception #39. So later I called LV and explained to them what I had learned. I called Florence to verify tomorrow's appointment and asked about the Bank Receipt. Stopped at Enterprise Rent a Car and reserved a car for June 26 and 27. I filled the tires and the fuel tank, on the Polaris, then drove it around for a bit. I liked that. |
12 June 2007 ......................... Tuesday I was at the Florence 1st Ward Clerk's Office by 9am. There I met Brother David Gay and we worked on a Bank Account Problem till we found it. The Bank had made an error and it took us a long time to find it. |
13 June 2007 .......................... Wednesday Marilee goes to work taking David with her. I stay here in Paradise and mostly work on Irrigation and Area Auditor Stuff. Irrigation did not go well. The dirt dam that I had to put in to keep the water from to Chris Cole's place, washed out!! So the Water was going to Chris Cole's place. I was forced to turn the water down the Hannah Ditch and turn it off to me so I could rebuild the needed dirt dam. I then turned the water back down to us, but we must have lost half of our water during all of this. |
14 June 2007 ......................... Thursday Marilee goes to work leaving David, Melissa and Myself here in Paradise. Mostly I work on Area Auditor Stuff......sure lots to do. David is studying C++, Melissa is painting her room. |
15 June 2007 ...................... Friday Happy Birthday to Sister HAINES Marilee home today, along with David and Melissa and Myself. I start off the day with a lot of Area Auditor Work...... Marilee and I decide we need a Chest of Drawers in the Upper Bedroom so we drive to Wal*Mart to get one. We then spend the rest of the day putting it together and getting it up into the Bedroom. It fits well, looks good, maximizes the use of that space. David is a great help assembling the Dresser and getting it up into the bedroom! |
16 June 2007 ............... Saturday Marilee goes to work today. I work on Area Auditor stuff. In addition to David, Melissa, Myself, here today in Paradise, we have Rachel, Ashley, Thomas, Others?. |
18 June 2007 .................. Monday Happy Birthday to Tiffany Happy Birthday to Matthew Happy Birthday to Sariah Many Many times today I started to call My Birthday Children, BUT, I never got it done!! So I called them on Tuesday Morning. Marilee and I started off the day by irrigating the pasture. It was a good irrigation and Marilee saved the day by patroling the ditch and finding then fixing the breaks, as they happened. That was we never lost the head of water, like I did last time. Marilee went to town with David and Melissa. While they were gone the Visiting Teachers, Sister Connie Grover and Sister Angela Lara came to visit. I was able to entertain them till Marilee and Melissa arrived home. Sister Grover gave us some Zuchini Squash, which, later, I fixed for supper!! Uummnnnnnnn Good. I did a lot of Area Auditor Work today. Family Home Evening was wonderful. Attending were Marilee, David, Melissa, Myself. We read 4th Nephi. What a glorious time in Human History. I love reading about it. What a Stark difference between when people follow the promptings of Christ and when they follow the promptings of Satan. WHY WHY WHY do people pay so much attention to one who wants you destroyed [satan] and so little attention to one who wants you glorified [christ]????? After Family Home Evening was over, We continued to read scriptures and talk Gospel Principles for a long time. I love the Gospel. I know the Gospel is true. For one thing it is the only thing that makes sense but more importantly the Holy Ghost has born witness to my spirit that God Lives, that Jesus is the Christ, that God the Eternal Father and his Son Jesus Christ did appear to and talk to Joseph Smith and then through him they restored the Gospel to the Earth. It had been taken from the earth because of the wickedness of the people, that explains the "Dark Ages". They, through Joseph Smith, the Prophet, restored the Gospel to the earth, that explains the "Light Ages" that we are living in now! I love it, I like it and I definetly want some more of it. |
19 June 2007 ............................. Tuesday I started off the day by calling my birthday children and telling the happy birthday, which I should have done yesterday, on their birthday!!! David went with Marilee today, as she went to work. |
