early in the morning of the 13th, i notice a cab pulling into the lot of the mount hope, happens all the time so i didn't think it was a big deal until he pulls on to the lawn with the others cars.turn out it my friend john.taking a smoke, newspaper break.apparently being a latenight cabdriver even in hope can be trying.got my phone yesterday,except when i woke up this morning the line was dead.so i phone the repair guy dale(god bless him) within two hours it was fixed.somebody at the office deleted the original program.so they had to program it again,doh!!! isn't technology great.

cant believe it been a week already since my birthday, i can feel the bones harding already.made my own entertaiment yesterday by heading into town(thanks mabel for the ride)and doing some visiting(thanks for the warns for feeding me).bad storm,hit hope last night.because of it my friend trish lost her gazebo, unfortunately thats not the only thing she lost her father(94 years old).94 is a good old age but losing loving one is still hard to take no matter how old.in two days it will be 12 years since my mom has passed on.love you mom

tuesday june 3,2008,my birthday

on the day of my 44th birthday i begin to ponder things.including my faith in the mormon church. i love my church family but i begin to wonder if the church truly wants you to be happy.the more happy you are the less power they have over you.not only the mormons do this but other churchs as well.
