Well, what should I say? It is a Sunday and I do not have to work for once. I have Monday off, also. We will do FHE. The summer has been hard to have regular FHE and daily scripture study because everyone are always on different schedules. I am looking forward to school starting so we can all get on a schedule again. I am working at Walmart now that it is summer. I was substitute teaching but of course that ended when school ended. I was home every night. With Walmart I am usually working at night. I am a cashier but I took the supervisor leadership assessment and I passed so I applied for a new zone supervisor position that is coming open. I also volunteered to move to the sales floor in housewares. Either would be good. I like cashiering but I have more skills than that and would like to use them. I have seen how a person can advance at Walmart. Both Martha and Sara were/are advancing at Walmart. I will stay at Walmart until something better comes along.
I was hoping to start classes in Aug. I only have five more classes to do to get my Bachelors Degree in Management. It costs $600 a class and I am not sure where I will get the money.
I have been called to the Primary. I have CTR 7's which is six yr olds turning seven. I am enjoying them. I miss Relief Society, though.
My garden is doing well. I froze a ton of snow peas. More than we will eat probably. Now the green beans are starting to get big enough to pick. I cannot decide if I want to can them or freeze them. Maybe some of both. I have been getting zuccini from only one plant. I have been picking them small. The other zuccini plant is producing flowers but no fruit. The potatoe plants are dying which is ok. The potatoes are ok in the ground until I get around to digging them. The tomatoe plants are full of green tomatoes. The cucumbers got a late start so only lots of flowers so far. The peppers are full of flowers and some are starting to grow. I have jalepenos and bell peppers. We ate some of the carrots for dinner tonight. We have one cabbage that Triniti brought home as a seedling. We planted it and it is ready to be picked but I will wait until next week when Triniti returns home from her visit to Aunt Heathers house.
I got all three doe rabbits bred this week. One doe has had two litters and she let them die because she ignored them. This will be her third and last chance. I am planning on making rabbit stew if she continues to eat my food and not produce. The three does are due at the same time so maybe I can foster some of the babies back and forth. The two does and the male have finally reached breeding age. I am so excited to get some baby rabbits and be on my way to having rabbit meat. I feel self sufficient raising my own food. Also, the meat will be without hormones and antibiotics. Roger does not want to butcher the rabbits so I will have to do it my self. I am ok with that. I want to do chickens next year for the eggs. Our neighbor is doing chickens.
Roger applied for a job in San Diego, CA. It will be a promotion. We will use the increase in pay to live there but hopefully in a year or two we can get back to UT. We will keep our house here. Martha and Sara will live here and take care of the house while we are in CA. Rogers retirement pay is based on his highest three years earnings. Therefore, we want to make sure his earnings are as high as possible so his retirement pay will be as high as possible. We are not sure if he will be picked for the job but if he is I guess I will have to do something with the rabbits. I am finally getting them to breeding age so I hate to give it up but I will just do what I have to do.
Thanks for reading about my life and feel free to post something about your life.
