08/09/86 Samedi (Saturday) Trip to Honfleur

Ca Va!
The day passed rather quickly. Tony'as host mother called this morning and talked with Colette. They worked it out so that I can stay with them for a few days. An answer to my prayers once again.
We traveled to Honfleur today after lunch. We ate dinner at the same place we always eat when we are here. It was nice. We also had drinks at a cafe before. I am really tired but relieved to know I will kill a few days at Tonyas. I'm not sure how long we are here or how long I'll stay at Tonya's but it feels good to be away.

I have got to work on not eating as much. My pants are so tight! I did pretty good today. I ate less at the restaurant then last time. It was so hard because they eat so slow! I enjoy eating and running.

I don't know what to bring back for everyone. It is so difficult. And who do I bring back for? I cashed my don't touch unless emergency $50 today for my trip back from L'Aigle. I hope I can make it the week after all this fun. I'm so glad this worked out. At least it is supposed to work out!I'll keep praying. Only thing is now I may miss church. I wanted to go. Well we'll see. No major upsets today.

Colette still can't drive and I don't think she likes me much but that's ok because I don't like her much either. She is very 2 faced. Decide too. And thiefs and they like it . Yuk!

Bon Soir

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...

10/06/24 Repairs, Funeral, Marathon, Retirement Party, Car Show, Murder Mystery, Dr Visits, Pets, Food & Church. O my!

Macy Bundy, Hudson Jones, Emily Francis It's been a wonderful, packed week with good stuff going on all around. Sunday during church I went to Andy's class for 1/2 of the second hour. The kids are nine and kind of a handful sometimes...but there was only three and they were pretty cute and fun. After Andy taught his class he went to Primary singing time and I went to the second half of a combined YW/YM class. We had Sunday dinner with Randy & Kay, AJ, GPA, and us. Eldon and Diane are on an Elderhostel trip and will be gone for a couple Sundays with other responsibilities. Andy smoked drumsticks and I made homemade bread and cookies (both new recipes). All of our dinner was SO GOOD!!!! Sometimes it just works, and this was one of those! YuM! Raspberry filled cookies Delicious homemade bread Bryce and Marlee and Mo left fairly early on Sunday morning. They went out to Enterprise to see her brother's kids in the primary program. They had lunch and then stopped at Holly a...

11/10/24 Election, 28 year Anniversary, 1 year Anniversary and a Sealing

Well I'm starting this early cause tomorrow morning I'm going walking extra early. But I'm still calling it 11/10. I'm gonna run through this week and see if anything was exciting. But first...this picture...It just kills me! When church is just too much! Haha. I think that was at youth conference a couple of years ago and I think it's one of the Francis boys...but I couldn't swear to it! I know you're not supposed to take pictures in the chapel. But seriously...I couldn't resist! Speaking of the Francis family. Today at 2:30 p.m. at the Red Cliff's Temple, they sealed Laith to their family. Laith will make child # 10 (or 12?) (And he is 10 years old). Laith's mother died very unexpectedly within the last couple of years. Shortly thereafter his father was arrested and has been sentenced to spend the rest of his childhood and beyond (I don't know the # of years) in prison. He's a challenging child AND he got bumped around a little....
