Josh Gorban

I was reading Hannah T's blog, she had Joan Baez singing a song. I believe that Josh Gorban is a better a singer.

Twilight Author

I was reading the Desert News this morning and came across this article about Mormon authors on the Top 10 list. For some reason I can't get the link to work. Sorry.

Thanksgiving

I was going to be here for Thanksgiving, in fact i was looking forward to seeing everyone. Then i got the opportunity to go to Utah and spend it with Eric. So off i went. it was good to see him again and spend time with him, We stayed with Richard one night and Charlie for the rest of the time. Thanks for having me it was fun. The weather was so cold, we went miniature golfing with Robert and Robin and i opted to go golf to cold for me. Went to BYU and bowled. Eric got 4 strikes in a row. I of course lost bowled a 95. I guess I need to practice more. The ride home was good the sun was out and the weather was good. Hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving.

Jamie's Birthday

Today Jamie turned 28 years old. I can still remember the day she was born. She was delivered by a woman doctor. The only one too. She looked like a little pa poos, she had olive skin, brown eyes, and dark hair. She, of all my children had the most hair. She was born to early in the morning, about 4:30am. She always has been a night person. Went to visit her yesterday and had lunch. Hope you have a happy birthday. I love you and I am glad you are my daughter and in our family. Love You so muchhhh! Don't know how to down load pictures sorry, or I would of put one up.

Painting a living room

The week before I went to see Kelli and her family. When I got there she was starting to paint her living room. Took her a few days, but with me there helped it go faster. Her living room looks great. Get her to post some pictures. She did a great job. I painted a couple of walls, made her do the hight spots. Had a great time. Even went to her ward trunk of treat party. It was something.
Kevin was out of town for work.

Standing on the corner watching the cars go by....

Today I help with the Prop. 8 activity. Several us stood on the sidewalk of a very busy street and waved signs. We were encouraging people to vote yes on Prop. 8. Many people honked their horns and gave us thumbs up signs. Some were not so nice. Told us to get a life, and said we were bigots. Heard a few choice words. In all it was not a bad experience. Would do it again in a heart beat. The weather was not the best in the world. We got rained on but only for a short time. The hard rain came later in the day. That I was thankful for.

Also went to a baptism for a boy I teach in Primary. To my surprise Helen and Susanne were in attendance. Had a nice chat with them.

Cell Phones in School

Having worked in the high school, cell phone can be very disruptive and take away from the learning process. Kids are always texting when the teacher is trying to teach. They do not care that it is against the rules and do as they please. I have taken phones away from students myself. They go to the teacher and get it back later. The link below is from the Deseret News. Thought some might want to read it.
