This might very well be the last entry I make here until after I get done moved back to the Hazzard Valley. See grand Rocky Mountain Power is on the heels of unplugging me from the pole, Friday morning if not this morning. I was praying seriously that I'd long been done moving back home, by now, but because Shelly got short on finances and myself coughing up money, for new registrations, my drivers license renewal, and deposits on power there in Wendell, and all, plus now some 6 trips over and back to move stuff from the shop, to the new HCC,{Hazzard County Choppers} and all at $80.00 $40.00 over and $40.00 or so back it eats cash, fast near $400.00 plus the half deposit on the new place only gave me $100.00 or so left over and that mostly got spent on radio bills. So Then, thankfully I requested aid from our LDS Ward for rent, here in ETown since there was some final pieces needed to be done, but I didn't figure on utilities. Natural Gas and of course Electricity. So I swallowed my pride once more and requested from our LDS Ward, for aid on the power bill, as a final request since after this following week, I ain't here no more and thus as such no further requests would be asked of the Church, ever.
See near Hazzard, if my funds get a bit low, and my mini truck in good shape, I can go collect scrap metal, from body shops, service shops, and some of the area farmers, and take it to the recyclers. Or in season, drive spud or sugar beet truck, and I don't have to beg like a bum on the street. In essence go work for money. In doing that, its so minimal I don't have to report it to the Union bean counters, while still getting my monthly benefit money. Here, no can do. There ain't many farms on a large scale, and there aren't many dairy farms here that I can go work at. So I have to tuck in my tail, and ask the Bishop for help. But the Bishop said nope the well was dry.
Considering this and many other events you'd think that one absolute request would be honored observing that since I moved here near 3 years or so , I have seen my home teachers maybe 6 times, a few visits from the Bishopric , had to eat by myself at 3 Ward dinners, and outside of once, never asked to give a talk, or even say an opening prayer or closing prayer in either a class, Priesthood meeting, or at Sacrament meeting. In essence being snubnosed or held at a great distance, from getting close. Outside of the Bishop himself , his 1st Counselor who I respect in the fact he wears a badge. I respect and honor most all in Law Enforcement. My Dad was a deputy, I wore a badge both in Hazzard as well as West-Point, Idaho. I have known all too many in fact one who became a Sgt, of the Jerome Police Department that was into mini diecast cars etc as I was. I first met Jay in Power County Idaho, and spent many nights as a ride along Deputy, and nearly ran for Sheriff of Power County. I have thought of doing that in Gooding County many times, and I have a bunch of support for doing that still, but i'm drifting off topic.
The LDS Ward here is not as warm and welcoming as I have been used to. In that light to call a truce to the situation condition the Ward could have helped on my power bill, and I'm very hurt that they didn't. But oh well one more thing to put in the Why One Should Not Consider Evanston Wyoming as a place to call home box.
Now to be fair here, yes on countless occassions, the Ward stood up and helped. The first in fetching the radio gear, from Woods Cross, Utah. In thought it might have been better for the Ward just to have helped me move back there, and dismissed the idea of any radio thing here in Etown. My would I love to bust open the skull, of the con artist that invited the Knytes and I up here in the first place. I would have loved to have knocked the marbles out of the brains of the first people I rented shelter to here, as well as beat the snot out of the people at NGL, who got a stick up their butt, just because I put forth the compliment of a young gal that worked there. The list of atrocities that I have had to endure here goes way past any kind of just a radio station. The Knytes had in mind of dumping nearly $10,million into this town, but loyalty and just common sense came around, bit the Knytes in the butt, and the Club, pretty much said, " You gotta be kidding?" So for the past year, I along with my lady Shelly have been trying to light at least a small candle for the shop and Highway Hooker Toewing. Which I can say, when LexiBelle co-operated I made good money. Much of my traffic came from Our listings both in Yelp, and Google My Business, with that Highway Hooker Toewing all will be relocating to both Bear River City, Wyoming and Randolph Utah. While; Cooter's A1 will move to along with HCC to both our original location in Hazzard as well as Wendell Idaho. At least two families, the Cox's and the McFadden's have sort of adopted me and been some support. But could it have hurt the LDS Ward I go to to help with a mere last $200.00 so I can keep the lights on for another final week in this Payton Place, arrogant, stiffnecked town? Oh well huh? So if you don't hear me on air or see another entry here in Cooter's Gazzette, you'll know the Power has been cut, and I'm alone. However I'm out most of today, to remedy the situation.
As it was said on one of the Star Trek movies, If I'm not here tonight, I'll see ya'll around the galaxy.
L8R Ya'll,
