Over the Rocks

Sunday it was going to be hot and thats not a false statement. So Murphy and I took a drive up to Smith Creek area. I wasn't sure what exactly we were going to do. We had three things on the list get firewood, pick huckleberries, or just do nothing except injoy the day.


I have always admire the little rock like waterfull off of Union Creek. But above that we got a little bit of larch rounds for the winter stove.
I can recall the day when we worked a lot harder. We're not quite as bad but almost like we won't cut wood if half past three and some sign is in certain postion we won't cut fire wood. We're almost like that




So aftrer wood gather we went up toward cow creek and beaver creek. Well I found a fine looking Yule tree but I know it would bef impossible to have but cause way to much snow.
So we found a place and just to watch the water go. One can't denie the beauty and had a little quilty time with my hubby.



We got home waited tell it to cool down and place the larch rounds in barn. The rick of wood is above my head and we add more rounds to rick. Majorty of wood was very small in diameter. But I can feel the pain in my shoulder.
Now my home fell behind and Confession time...I wonder if I should of went. My home is so bad and I'm so wipe out this week form work I feel trap in house work. I tell you have no desire to advance in becoming any type of nurse.

The Surname I Was Given

Witherell is the surname I was given at birth. By my dad Harold he was known as Pete. I have never met anther person with Surname of Witherell. I”m only child and my father was married before to a lady name Louise. They ended up getting divorce.
My dad had no sibling by his father. He had sibling by his mom (Elsie Miller) who remarried a man of Rolph Wells.
My great grandparents Duane and Dora Stansell had two boys. Maurice and Clarence. Well Clarence is only one who got married and had one off spring. Maurice died do to the 1906 Earthquake in San Francisco.
Duane was the son of Gilman and Mary-Ann Simpson Witherell. They had 5 children. The oldest being George who married Suzie Church I know they move to Los Angles area and I know of one son Burt or Bart.
There next child was Henry A who married Susan Barnes/Bunner from New York they had one son Harley. Henry died in Tennessee during the civil war do to disease
The third child was a girl and died when she was 12.
The fourth child a male also died when he was young.
The baby of the Gilman and Mary Ann was Duane.
I know Gilman had a brother name Theodore.
I should tell the place of resident Gilman, his brother and son came from Concord New Hampshire area and went to Michigan in cass county. The rest was born in cass county michigan. But I don't know if George descent are left. If Harley had any descent or not. Theodore Gilman brother does he have any living descent.

It Amazing

Wondered how one keeps every thing going. I only work part time and Thursday hasn't to bad/ I don't why but Wednesday kicked me right the pututie.
See usual when I have to run client to the doctor it and all day thing doctors are the only one time that counts for anything.
All of us who does home-care and is paid though Medicaid and we are given number of hours per week which is usual fair to the need of client. But like to day I took mine to Sandpoint and I went over the aloud time so I won't paid. So do I leave the client there and say well my time is up so tuff shit get home best way you can.
I'll just bank my hours and take a little time off later on. Question time...I wonder if one of us hours are done with our client and we just left them some where. I wonder what would happen?
We don't get paid for the extra hours. OK I can't think of any reason why I would leave any body stranded. OK if they where real royal pain in ass.



Wondered about certain people and how actual they become so stupid. One gentlemen who lives in senior/disability apartment up on oak st. Made this statement “We sure have a dumb ass nigger for president”
Heck this guy get over a $100 month in food stamps, subsides rent, medical paid for, and quite a few beanies though the government safety net. I haven't yet seen a Republican yet add any safety nets to help anyone excepted the top 3% income bracket



Have any of you really took foreword to retirement. My two main job of waitress and personal care I had actual hated and what every job I had I always do a good job. But in all honestly sometime which gets me though the day that I have easy client. What bothers me how the whole home care system is set up. It an opportunity for someone to set up a business for home-care and bill medicaid so there forth no reason for any of these people who have personal care giver to get well. Statement time...a third of them could be off home-care less then 5 years if someone worked with them, a third of them could have there hours decrease it might take a little extra hours to get them set up, and a third of them could never have there hours decrease.
I look around the place have dreams what I would like to do. But until it cools down, hours get cut, retirement, or I get fired or loose my clients I fill bless I get the bare necessity done



Some people need to look in there closet. People who makes rude remarks against other religion needs to take a look at there. How violent there is and lot of it over greed

Cousin, Cousin, Cousin, and More Cousin

Over last weekend we had a family reunion all of my great grandad Elisha McCalmant descended met at Andy Low down by deep creek.
There was 5 dogs, 1 son of mine was there, 3 Aunts, and 2 Uncles. Then the rest was cousin, cousin and more cousin. There was about 90 relatives there.
My great grand dad Elisha and his first wife Marindia Davis had whole bunch of rugrats like 5 of them, She died short time after given birth. Elisha later on married a divorce woman Cynthia Brunson who had one daughter by her first husband Jessie Pollard. Then Elisha and Cynthia had 9 children together. Although not all of them made it adulthood.
But as for my cousin on my dad side it complete different story. My dad Harold Witherell parents Clarence and Elsie Miller divorced when my dad was quite young or even maybe before we was even born. Both remarried but Clarence and his new wife Pearl never had any children. Elsie remarried a man of Rolph Wells who had a son from previous marriage. But then they raise 4 children to adult hood but they have common names such as Miller, Dodd, Wells, and the only one who don't have such and evcryday surname is Kephart.
I like to met some more cousin I'm an only child. I know I don't have any first cousin with the surname of Witherell since I'm an only child.
