"We all enjoy giving and receiving presents. But there is a difference between presents and gifts. The true gifts may be part of ourselves - giving of the riches of the heart and mind - and therefore more enduring and of far greater worth than presents bought at the store."
-James E. Faust
Lots of gospel study and I try to finish the Old Testament, keep up on my Book of Mormon reading and journal, conference talks, and church magazines. I also did four blog posts.
Stacy has a new job. Her friend Penny Dolata who works at Chandler Eye needs someone to help with her mother -in-law. Her main responsibility will be to take her on errands. She called and told me about her first experience. I guess she took her to the doctor and then Mrs. Dolata wanted to go to Walmart for just a few minutes. Stacy said she spent 2 1/2 hours wandering around every aisle in Walmart and the woman ended up buying frosting and grape soda. It was quite an experience.
I went into town to pick up Nerf guns I ordered at Walmart but they weren't ready for pickup. I picked up lunch at Aliberto's, by the way their bean burros can't even compare to Burger House's, and washed my car. Came home and watched Christmas movies while doing work at my desk and computer.
This evening I attended the Relief Society activity at the church. Teresa Smith taught us line danceing. It was fun. The theme was Angels and sisters shared stories about times they were helped by the "angel" visiting teachers. We had angel food cake with strawberries and whipped cream for dessert. I visited with Joel Miller and Amy Reynolds. Kelly and Shelly babysat and I definitely think they deserve an award.
Joyce Malone made these boxes for everyone.
Inside was candy and a small angel ornament.
Robert came by tonight and fixed the truck. Darrel was here again tonight.
