6-17-84

Dear Diary, We left at 7am for church. Heber had a meeting at 7:30, after we got to church I took a nap. I fixed my face on the way over. We had a fairly good Father's day. Heber gets really upset at the way our ward is run. The Bishop ignores all that his counselors give him. Surely some day we will all do what's right and let the consequence follow. I tired hard to get the most out of our meeting.

We watered this eve. I cleaned some flower beds.

Dear Diary, I am not so tired tonight. We did get lots done today. I wrote several letters today. I worked in the yard this eve. Made a new iris bed around an oak tree. I gathered several cabbage and broccoli. We took fresh vegetables to two different elderly families. I got my quilt top Miss Sadie did for me. It's really pretty. I'm tempted to put it in now and quilt it, but with the garden coming in I better not.

Dear Diary, We have had a very interesting day. First I fed my roses before breakfast. I also started the charcoal before breakfast so we could bar-be-que before Johnnie's family left for Doris' and Johnnie was to catch the plane at 5pm for a school in Dallas. I talked to the family and told them we loved them and were hurt that they quarrelled so much. They committed themselves to try to do better. I also talked with Charlie and gave him some advice, he and Chuckie go home in the morning. Heber and the boys dug down to the septic tank. The man will clean it out tomorrow.
