A Dusting of the Cobwebs: David....

A Dusting of the Cobwebs....

welcome to my blog!
...allow me a brief introduction...

In a reacent conversation with my daughter, her questions were why I, and her Dad were so quiet about our lifes? Meaning writing or telling about our own personal historys.

I didn't think there was anything important to write about. As I was just a normal person, getting up in the morning and getting the day started, getting kids off to school, or meeting schedules of the whole family, cleaning house, and landry. Keeping little ones busy, and changing diapers, comming home fixing dinner, helping with homework, putting kids to bed, watch some news, go to bed. And then do it all over again the next day. Then some days was teaching lessons in Primary, RS, MIA, Sundayschool, cub scouts, or helping at schools, ect. Family home evening, Visiting teaching, and even some Home teaching and being the family schaefer. most of the time we had one car, 6 kids, one working husband. Oh yes, the multi years of music lessons, and baseball teams, coaching, and even one major jumproap champion, for one daughter.

We had trials too. some were very hard, just thinking about a single memory of losing our son, brings tears. But we are told that this life is to meet trials, and how we handle them will be for our own eternal growth.

A very wise Stake President, President Alred, once said "We are here to be schooled in the principles of eternity. We will work by the sweat of our brow, to work our way through this life... But remember we are here to be schooled in the principles of eternity."

So, I welcome you to my blog. Please feel free to stay and go as you please, and wander where you wish. And, as always, feel comfortable in sharing those stories that you may feel are just "an every day" thing as well...

David....

2017

During this year David and Marisol found a nice home on the west side of Provo, along the old Geneva road. It has lots of possibility's, there will be a some work, as always, to make a home just the way one likes it.

When Davids boss found out that David was planning on leaving his employment, as he wasn't making enough money to pay his bills, His boss met with David and Marisol and informed David that he could not do without him, and gave David a nice raise.

David then met with the other employer whom he was to start work for the following week, and let him know that he would be staying with his old employer, as he had given him a raise to meet his needs.

David wanted to explain in person, instead of a phone call, or just not show up. I am very proud of him for his honesty.
