08/05/86 Mardi (Tuesday) Versaille

Today we went to Versaille. It was really nice. We went through the huge Chateau and gardens. Tonya and I talked the whole time. It was really fun. After we brought up her coming here and Colette and her discussed everything and I thought it was settled but I guess Colette didn't like whatever they discussed because when we got home she flipped out - she was the one that said about driving to L'Aigle and then she asks me why we have to go there. no sense. I would never have asked her to drive there and she flips out after SHE makes the suggestion herself. i don't understand her at all. She ruined my whole day. She was so nasty when she asked me about her coming. I don't even know what they said So I couldn't defend anything.

Tomorrow I am meeting Tonya in Paris at 11 and we are going to LeLouvre! Neat, huh?! I don't know if Tonya will come or not. I guess I'll wait and see what happens.

I got a letter from Terry and Andrea and Brian today. I have no more air mail envelopes so? W/b whenever?

I felt really great all week and this little incident has really got me upset. I was so excited - now it is all falling apart again. Why?

Every time I start liking it here something ruins it. This will be the 3rd day in a row that I go to be exhausted. It is great! I love it. I just hope everything works out tomorrow and this weekend.

09/10/23 Hey, do you get to read letters on non-p day, p day?

First time trying a lime Pineapple was more pleasing than lime Well...we went to Provo on Saturday and Sunday -- so your letter is a little later on Sunday than usual...but then I got to thinking...will you even get to see this before Thursday anyway?! So hopefully you're not sad that I'm late and all is well in CHILE. It's a rainy sabbath here...which is weird cause we rarely get rain. But it is drizzly and rainy and our ride home was beautiful for 2 hours, raining for 1 1/2 hours, and then pretty good the rest of the way. Let's see...what happened this week...Monday was Labor Day...so we had a day off work. Yeah!!! We didn't have anywhere we needed to go and planned to have a quiet Monday but first, we went to this store called Sheridan's that is super close to our house. And we found some wonderful outdoor patio furniture. It took us 3 trips to get it all home and all afternoon to unpack and assemble it. So at 5:30, we were just finishing and kinda tired

10/15/23 Last Letter!

Hey! Can you believe it?! It's your last letter from home!!! This time next week you'll be one tired Hermana sitting in my kitchen with me!!! What a week! Monday was Columbus Day - so everybody had to work ('cept me!!!!) haha I stayed home and worked on projects. I took your car to the tire shop and had the tires inflated and then to Walmart and got an oil change then to the car wash and got the shebang inside and out and then brought it home and scrubbed it for a couple more hours. Wow, it was dirty and still isn't great! haha. I also cleaned the pool and worked on the yard a bit and I don't even remember what else. I just remember I was super tired by day's end! On Tuesday Emmalee came over and did Holly's hair and makeup. She looked really pretty. Afterward, we went to the Covington Home to take pictures. And the funny thing...it was decked out in Halloween decorations. NOOOOO!!!! So we found some areas and took some pictures and I think we got a c

11/09/24 The temple

St George Temple This morning I woke up early and continued to read "Your Endowment", a book Grandma Griffin gave me several years ago but that I never read cover to cover. It is of course, about the temple and the meaning behind the endowment and the other things we learn about in the temple. I'll be honest, a lot of it feels "over my head". I am seeking to learn and know and understand more but I don't have a thorough understanding at this time. Kathy and Steve Spring Yesterday I went to visit Kathy Spring. She worked at Washington City for many years and retired almost 3 years ago. We were good friends and she helped me in the court for quite awhile. Her husband died in January of 2020...looking back she is convinced it was covid but it was just before covid really became a thing. So it's not official. In about a years time she lost her Dad, her husband, her son and a grandson. Life was pretty rough when we were friends back then and I could see the
