08/11/86 Lundi (Monday) More Honfleur and Deauville Beach

Ca Va!

Really enjoy staying here.  Everybody is so much more pleasant.  Armand is the sweetest kindest most giving person I have met.  She would give her shirt and shoes and everything for anybody else.  Colette is less of a spazz although when she drives she is still stupid but Armand always watches out for our safety with "Attend!" (Attention)  We (Armand and I) ate breakfast together and then I dressed and ran to the post office.

I walked around through the shops but the ones I wanted to go to were closed so I came back.  Before lunch we walked around a bit and fed the sea gulls then ate a rather short lunch.  Only an hour.  We were going to go to Liseaux butthe weather got nice so we went to Deauville and that's the nice beach.  It was a little chilly for swimming so I just laid in the sand.  Then we walked the boards (no stores but 1 here and there- we came home and made dinner.

It was so relaxing and nice here.  I am still restless for return to home but I can almost tolerate the days and sometimes even enjoy the days here.

I hope to make this vacation last as long as possible so I have to spend as few days at Colette's as possible.

My history is all I worry about there.  I don't even miss not getting my mail because there is usually something else to keep me semi happy.

Dieting is impossible as hard as I try but hopefully this gross appetite will go away when I get home.

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
