Today is Saturday, August 17, 2008. My surgeries were last Monday, August 11th. I thought they were minor surgeries, but I have changed my mind! Anytime, they make incisions, it is major surgery! I am feeling better. I have done nothing but rest, other than being sick and sore. But I have had the best nurse my money could buy. His name is Jay, and anytime that I am not feeling well, I want him near. He takes the best care of me. He is having to make sure I get fed, whether he cooks or picks up fast food. He washes clothes, gets me anything I want, and makes sure that I do not bend or lift. I am not supposed to do anything for a few weeks. It is hard to see something lying on the floor and have to stop and think, "no, you cannot pick that up." My aunt Eva tells me that they broke the mold when Jay was made! I know some of you have great husbands, too.
We tended JaLynn's kids for about two weeks while she went on a cruise to Alaska. She really had a good time, but had to come home to rest. Isn't that the way it is, when you go on vacation? JaLynn and family came out Monday night, went school shopping on Tuesday & Wednesday. Jay found a 2002 Ford Escort for Emily to drive to college. She seems thrilled with it. JaLynn & Shalayne went to Snow College in Ephraim, UT, with Emily today. Shalayne is going to Utah State University in Logan, UT, probably on Monday. Shalayne left us about 1 1/2 weeks ago. It is quiet without her. JaLynn will only have four children home, now. Time moves on and Life goes on, no matter what.
It's almost time for the Griffis Family reunion, which starts on August 28-30th. We cannot use the Stake Property on Sundays, anymore. We are looking around for a place that we can stay on Sundays for next years. You are all invited. I have talked to Farrel & Pat about coming to the reunion, but I don't think they will. It's fun to read your blogs. I need Jen to help me add some gadgets to my blog. **BETSY'S BIRTHDAY WAS AUGUST 13, 2008. HOW OLD WAS SHE!!
