Hi to all of my friends
It has been a while, so I think I will do a few bullets to tell you all what is going on in the Marran household.

I have been in the house, only going out one time, since May eleventh when I had my surgery. I have been bored and restless some of the time, but it hasn't been that bad, really, since I am basically a loner for the most part, most of the time. Thankfully, my surgical scar has finally healed up, although is not a pretty sight to behold...ick. But I am excited about being able to get back to church tomorrow to celebrate Father's day with my husband. I am even a bit nervous to go back and play the piano since it has been so long. But I know it will be just fine; I have chosen songs that I am familiar with, so it has to be!
My husband flew to Kentucky and brought my daughter, Liza-Anne to Utah in her little car, which made it very well. He says that it is a trusty little thing, thank the Lord. Was great to see her and is going to be so great having her live within about thirty minutes from me. She is to be married on July 11th, and of course, the nerves and the excitement are mounting! We have some very competent ladies at church who are taking care of most of the details, so that is a load off of my shoulders. I still have to get my dress and do a few things, but it's mostly under control. God was so great to her though that it is actually staggering. She had been a little back slidden and had made her way to the altar to renew her commitment to Christ, just a while back, about November or so, and then she came to Utah in December and met our pastor's son. We had been praying for a Godly man for her and who was to know that we would move all this way away from Kentucky and that she would come to visit us and meet the man of her dreams? He is our pastor's son, and we are thrilled that they are going to be a part of our family.
But what is so great is that Liza got here on Monday night, and by the end of the same week, she had a job with Cracker Barrel, for whom she had worked in Kentucky while she was in College. This will tide her over until she finds a teaching job for the new school year. But also, within days, the couple had rented the house of their choice, the very first one they looked at...and their credit just panned out and everything...even with the landlord willing to take a cut in the rent payments. And now, she is already going for an interview with a charter school, on Monday, to teach fifth and sixth grade Science. God definitely takes care of his own. I would appreciate your prayers that she will get this post if it is God's will, since she likes the idea of teaching in an elementary setting, rather than middle or high school.
I am also getting excited because my other two children and my daughter in law are going to be here for the wedding. It will be chaotic, but Bobbie will be staying a few days after, so it will be so great getting to visit with her again. I haven't seen them since Royden, my son's wedding in October. He and his wife have to go back on Sunday, right after the wedding because she takes care of her church's music, but at least we will have them here three days or so.
Love you all; I think that is about all I have on my mind right now.

Speaking of cars and bullets...

I went out to the car this am... totally dead!

That $100 battery charger I bought some 30 years ago saved my bacon once again!!

After some running around - gun shop, bank, spreading The Gospel of RV*... a 60+ mile drive

and picked up $500+ of new brass & bullets for reloading.

* The Gospel of RV = informing the bank employees of the benefits of having a hardwired phone over a wireless or cell phone... that no warrant is required to tap a wireless phone since it's on open airwaves... and that all cell phone calls are recorded. Tapping a hardwired phone still requires a court order, I believe.

They were surprised that this was all "legal" or permitted.

And I finally got a PIN # for my debit card I can remember! Wooooooo!

I had a good time with the teller, not getting any banking business done.

Well, I did, eventually.

Well, it sounds like that battery charger was a good investment!
And what a gospel!

Yanno, that was the longest reply I think I have ever gotten from you, RV!

Thank you for reading. Yeah, she is coming over again today to do some laundry and print out a few things to be ready for her interview tomorrow. I may snooze through her being here, but then, that's why we are family; just do our own thing and be comfortable with one another.

Exactly....anything else would not feel like family....it is about being comfortable.
