Griffin Family

This was my attempt at making fun at my job.  My gossip column.  I only did it once because I was afraid people would recognize themselves and I'd get in trouble!    Justice?!     The month started out quite exciting with a trial on September 3,  State of Utah vs. B. P.  B. was charged with speeding on Telegraph road (which he DID NOT DO!!! He is a respected, retired Grandpa, he doesn't HAVE TO BE ANYWHERE in a hurry!!!).  He spent 40 minutes slandering Officer Kiwi’s good name before he was found guilty.       He even was successful in ruffling the feathers of our substitute prosecutor who told the defendant he didn’t feel bad about “wasting” his time as it was HIS fault we were all here in the first place.  If he would obey the speed limit and /or pay his violations once caught we could have avoided this whole fiasco.  The prosecutor later apologized to the judge for losing his cool.   ...

June 4, 2002 to Stacy A. Our little family has escaped the bad luck this go round.  We are all doing well.  Katie is 5 1/2 months and cute as can be.  She is starting to roll and sit's up if you get her there first.  She will probably crawl soon.  Bryce just graduated Kindergarten and really loved it.  Dallas just finished first grade.  Aj - 5th.  Are we getting old or what???   We are loving our home.  We moved to Washington City a year ago.  We have since poured a basketball court in the backyard and are in the midst of making a 2 car driveway.  It was one.  Now it's two and this week we will hopefully get a 2 car carport installed.  Our cars were so hot baking in the 110 degree sunshine everyday here!  So that is where the income tax refund went.   I walk to work everyday and I still really love my job.  They are taking good care of me.  They let me take Katie to work everyday still. ...

05/30/02 Dear Shelly, Wednesday was a very bad, terrible, awful day - the tests themselves were not bad, but the stuff you have to take and have done to you prior to the actual tests are not so much fun...in fact, they are no fun at all.  The "sick feeling" doesn't just go away when the test is done...I still feel awful today. I had to drink barrium for 2 hours prior to the test...(CT Scan).  While drinking the stuff, they inserted an IV (2 sticks - the first one did not work), and then injected me with something for the Bone Scan...I had to wait extra long for the CT Scan and they used the IV to give me the contrast dye part way through the test...then I had to wait for the Bone Scan...it took a while to do.  For both tests, I had to lay on my back on a hard surface (I don't lay on my back even on a comfortable bed - so that was an ordeal). Diahrea set in somewhere in the middle of things from the liquid I was drinking.  Straining t...
