12/28/14 Life is changing

12/28/14

It was a great week here getting to talk to you!  That was so cool!  And so super fast.  I can't believe how fast it seemed.  Like you were there, then you were gone!  You looked really good!  Are you feeling better?  Did you need to go to the dr or did you get better on your own? Or are you still sick?


It's been a nice week here.  Kids are out of school.  Aj's home.


Dallas just finished out his last week of discount tire.  He starts working for Kenworth next week working on the big rigs as a diesel mechanic.  Seems kind of scary to me but he is super excited.  You'll have to remember him in your prayers to help him do well and learn and do all that he needs to.


Aj is starting a new phase in life too.  He's all graduated but grad school doesn't start until next fall and he doesn't know where he is going yet.  So he's kinda in limbo.  Looking for full time employment to keep him busy until he goes back to school.  He was offered a job this past week but decided against it.  It wasn't quite in the line of work he wanted and it was in SL area (or somewhere far away) and it wasn't worth the gas/time for the pay.  SO he keeps looking and interviewing.  
The girls have been chilling going to basketball with Dad and hanging with girl friends.  They are still in the easy stage of life!
Dad got tripped and turned his knee on Friday and is suffering from the ouch of his knee.  He thinks it will take care of itself given a couple of days but he is struggling getting up and down and around.


Dad and Katie and AJ went with Robert Hoppie and their boys to BYU basketball game last night.  They drove up and back in one day so super quick.  I think they had a blast!
Looking forward to another mellow week (I still work most of the week but it's nice having the girls not going here there and everywhere).

Hope you are doing well.  I'm proud of you! You are amazing.  Keep up the good works!  Love you!!! Mom

08/23/25 Organ

The Washington First Ward Building was sold to the City of Washington. Part of my responsibilities included dispensing of the organ and pianos in the building (along with other things).  It is an Allen, approximately 1970s.  I put the organ up on the auction. There were a couple of other people that were bidding on it, but I ultimately won the bid (for under $100). On the day I won the bid I was able to arrange a mover!!! I paid $250 to have someone from the piano store move it to our house (I have no idea how he managed to get that into the back bedroom....but he did it!!!) Then, it wouldn't work. 😭 I waited for approximately 6 weeks before a guy (who had to be 80 years old) came down from SLC and repaired the organ. (So the organ wasn't actually broken, it had to do with the electricity and the house talking nicely to one another.) It took him a couple of hours to figure it out. He charged about $200 and voila! I have a working church organ.  Cool, eh?  Now, I got...

03/28/26 Trip to Italy, Day 5, Saturday, Florence

We stopped at a local restaurant and got some breakfast tarts and then went to the Academia and saw the statue of David and had a tour. We returned to the same Restaurant and had panini sandwiches for lunch. Then we went to the Uffizi Museum for another tour. We had yummy gelato and took a rest for a while.  We walked through the leather market and to a cool bridge. We walked around the city awhile into we came to a restaurant that was super cute and we ate outside. We had ravioli and pizza. We walked a bit more after dinner and then came back and played games.
