giberty dollops

every time i read y'all's blogs, i think, "i am going to blog today". but by the time i read through yours and the other's that i read, it is waaaaay late and i have to go get stuff done. but know that i read yours every day. except when i have no internet.

Like when we (kev and I) went to detroit last week. Oh, i could've had it if i wanted to pay for it. I figured i would be home in a couple of days, so i waited. Kev wanted to spend some time with his online girlfriend in person. so i relented. he enjoyed himself very much, while i read books and watched cable. i loved the show "how it is made". it was on discovery channel. among other things, i watched an artificial leg get fitted and made. fascinating. another good reason we choose not to have cable. i'd veg completely.

I have recovered my cell phone. thanks for prayer. i know it was by this that i got back the phone...ask me and i'll tell you on the "phone".

one of my goals, starting last october or so is to go to the temple monthly. i have opened it up to other relief society members, and besides the temple, it has given me a chance to know others better. the car rides and conversations are fun. In march and april we have to go to detroit, as the columbus temple is undergoing some construction.

President Hinckley

I have got to say that I think he was my favorite church president. I loved his sense of humor and admired his fortitude at his age globetrotting. I also admired his full embracement of newer technology, seeing its good possibilities without focusing only on its bad. I love pres. hinckley
