Jeff's Personal Blog

Because of a recent stay in the hospital and recuperation at home for a couple of weeks, I have not been able to drive.

I got into a car for the first time last night. The stress was enormous as I faced the uptight, agressive and selfish Utah drivers. I was a nervous wreck after I got home from a short trip to the library and the grocery store. Now I have to build up a new immunity and start all over again if I am going to continue to survive or maybe I can move to Ruby Valley Nevada.

A week ago I lay down on the grass at my work. A sharp pain immediately developed in my lower right abdomen. A little while later my manager was rushing me to Insta-Care medical center. Tests were inconclusive. I managed to drive home and latter that evening Marilynn checked me into Altaview Hospital where I was operated on for a ruptured apendix at 8 AM the next morning.

My team manager at work was fired yesterday. You never know. She seemed very organized and efficient but lacking in people skills. I think she had some attendance issues. I mentioned to the girl who sits near me that I was glad I didn't hire in as a manager otherwise it would be me getting fired. She said, "Jeff, you would have been gone a long time ago."

The good news is that I was assigned to my old original manager Clint Wolfe who I really like.

Billionaire John Huntsman had an audience with the Pope. The Pope said, "I've never met a Mormon before. Huntsman replied, "Well your Holiness, that makes us even. I have never met a Pontif before."
