I have had the most horrifying experience.
It broke my heart. I can't cope.
I am destroyed on the inside.
I have not slept well since it happened.
And I am not allowed to talk to anyone about it.
What am I to do?
My trust in a valued friend is gone.
The more I try to forget the more I remember.
This pain is exquisite to bear.
I am broken, shattered, and lost in pain.
And I can not talk to anyone about it.
What am I to do?
Someone save me from my pain.
I look to God and He comforts me.
Yet, my wounds go so deep.
My soul is bleeding.
And I can not talk to anyone about it.
What am I to do?
I want to run, to nowhere.
Flee, flee for my soul.
Leave a trail of blood and tears.
So I will be the only one suffering.
And I can not talk to anyone about it.
What am I to do?
See my pain and pity me!
May this pass in time.
Let my trust return.
I WANT MY FRIEND BACK!!

Mac Journal
I have been looking at MacJournal for awhile now but just could not justify it. So when I saw that it was part of the MacUpdate Bundle for August I knew I wanted to get it. One of the features I liked was that I can upload my entries to my blog hence the blog entry.
It has been quite an interesting week. We were not very busy until Friday when we had as many orders as we had had from the rest of the week.
I have been working on the Ward calendar all week and I hope I will have it ready for Sunday. I still need to call all the leadership for the ward to get all the dates necessary but at least I am starting on it.
I have still not gotten the Mac Pro fixed. We are still waiting for parts. I hope it is soon I am having a hard time not getting to use my “powerful machine.“

A Sunday of trials!
It has not yet reached noon and the trials have been great.
We began by trying to help Katheryne finish her talk for primary. Because we tried all week and had got nowhere she was fustrated and all she could do is cry. We pushed through and got her talk done.
Then we told the children to get their clothes out of the dryer and get dressed. But when they checked the dryer had not been turned on and all of their clothes were still wet.
The next trial was Daniel and Laura fighting and they pushed a bookcase over and it crashed down into the den. Somehow there was a 6 pound jar of honey that was smashed and covered the floor. We had to move the couch and unload and move the game cabinent. Needless to say we did not make it to church.
After a while Aubrè came in and said I think Loppy ( our male rabbit) is dead. So we went out and checked and he was dead allong with one of Flaherty's rabbits. The children were devistated. We have not yet told her that her rabbit is dead she will probably freak out.
Holpfully the day will go better from here on out.

Time flies
When I started mobile blogging I wanted to make an entry every day,
but that has failed. I guess that is what repentance is for.
but that has failed. I guess that is what repentance is for.
Scott (Elder James) called from the airport in Georgia. It was fun for
everyone to get to say hello to him.
Well I did not finish this entry yesterday. So I will continue with
today. This morning I went out to look at our plants and trees and at
the bottom of the cherry tree lay a coiled sleeping rattlesnake.
Because it was so close to the house I decided it needed to be
disposed of. After I got a shovel I could not bring myself to get
close enough to kill it. So we called Walker over to kill the snake.
Which it did with no quams about it.
After the snake incident Lynn went out to check on the tomatos and
they grew two to three inches. Then Laura and Daniel sat and counted
the "baby" tomatos.

Swinging in the hammock
Daniel and I are out swinging in the hammocks. We have had such a
cold winter that we have spent more time indoors than out. Usually by
mid May we have been wearing shorts for weeks and spend more time
outdoors. We are just now getting into spending time outside. We just
set up our hammocks and everyone is thinking about setting up the
swimming pool

In seminary we finished Isaiah. Today we started Jerimiah. Every time
I would give a reference someone would break out in "Jerimiah was a
bullfrog."
Business has slowed down this week which is rough. I would like to
find a way to help stimulate orders but that would take me from the
office and everyone that could take my place has just left. So I feel
alone in running the office I have lots of help just I need to be
there and can't walk away.

Mobile Blogging
I am trying to send out a blog from my iPod via e-mail.
Today I started out the day by teaching seminary for Jessica. We
studied Isaiah 36 to 47. Those chapters talk about idol worship and
showed how idol worship will get you nowhere.
When I got home from seminary Lynn said that her dad was ready to buy
sod for their courtyard. So we went into Home Depot and bought 4
palates of sod. Now the James' have a very nice place. Now if only the
wind will stop (it has been blowing upto 70 mph).

Long time again!
Well it has been a long time again. I keep wanting to keep up with my blog but then I get sidetracked. I do keep adding pictures to my web album. It seems that I write in my blog as much as I keep a journal. Which is not good.
We have really gotten into the habit of reading to the children instead of watching TV. We are almost done with Eragon, Aubre and Emalie beg to read now. They won't let us stop reading and now beg to read whenever there is a spare moment.
Things are going well. I was feeling so much better for a while, but now I have taken a turn for the worse. I keep looking on the bright side that I was doing better, and hope that this change is only temporary.

We went to see the Balloons
We wanted to go to the Balloon Fiesta, but everytime we thought about going I was not feeling very well. So when we woke up Saturday morning I decided to load the family up in the car and go see the balloons. Lynn was right in that I could not handle all the walking, so we decided to sit in the parking lot of Target by the Balloon Fiesta park.
After waiting for some time the balloon pilots were given the go ahead to lift off. The children were very excited they would scream out each time they saw a balloon rise over the interstate.

Our day at the zoo
Saturday September 2nd we decided to go to the zoo. It had been almost six months since we last went. Lynn packed us a picnic lunch and we loaded up and went to the zoo. We arrived at the zoo at 11:30 so we decided to have our lunch outside the zoo at the park across the street, so we would not have to carry it all over the zoo with us. As we prepared our lunch the wind came up and we were freezing, the children all said that we are not going to like the zoo it will be too cold. So we ate our lunch and thought that we could at least go see the indoor exibits. After lunch we went across to the zoo. Once inside it was delightfull. We began with a picture infront of the flamingos, it is becoming tradition.
Then the children all ran as fast as they could to see the new baby hippo. They were so used running that they did not stop it was like pulling teeth just to get this group picture, notice Laura is ready to go again.
After all the running we came to the new play area at the zoo and guess what, the children let us res, for almost two hours they played on the new equipment. Next to the play area is a water feature that randomly shoots water into the air. The older kids loved getting wet, and it was not cold any more, thank goodness. This is James after he studied where the water shot up and then sat and waited for the water to come up.
He was laughing so hard I think that he may have wet himself but you could not tell.

Holy Agua!
With all the rain we have had every time we would see a puddle the kids would yell out holy agua!
On Monday August 7th we went to town to see a movie. As we crossed the Rio San Juan it was overflowwing its banks. As the kids yelled out holy Agua! Lynn and I were in shock as to how much water was flowwing in the river(a). In all the time that we have lived out here we have never seen the river a third as full as it was that day.
So Tuesday morning we decided to go and take some pictures of the river overflowing its banks. As we pulled up to the bridge there were several people there taking pictures of the river being so full.
As we crossed the railroad tracks we saw that the river had overflowed and was now filling up a low area by the tracks. As we drove up to the new lake we saw that the water was flowing into the housing development. When we looked at the new lake we saw two houses under water.
After we returned home Lynn's dad said that he was going to see if anybody needed help.
(a) I remember one time when someone was visiting Roswell from back east, they were talking about the drainage ditch that flowed through Roswell. It turned out that they were refering to the Hondo river. Some of the people in Roswell took some offence at refering to our river as a drainage ditch. So when I see the Rio San Jose I think of it as a drainage ditch.
