Happy 41st birthday Sheri!
I texted Happy Birthday and also posted on Facebook. James out did me with this post on Facebook:
"Happy birthday to my baby girl who made so many of my nights miserable as a baby, and caused me so much anxiety as a teenager and who made me so proud to be her dad as she excelled in high school and was married in the Mesa temple. Happy birthday to the beautiful mother who has been raising and directing the lives of four of my amazing grandsons and has found the time to be so kind and considerate to others; especially her parents who are so grateful for her love and goodness and influence on those she has been given to love and cherish in her life. Sheri, you truly have been a blessing to so many. I love you forever." Your Dad
Sometimes James can be so eloquent!
I am tired this morning and try to get going because we have to go to town. Finally I feel like getting ready to go. It was after noon when we left. We had family prayer and I read scriptures in the car. We started the third book in our Highland Hall series. This one is called "A Refuge at Highland Hall".
This one is set in 1915 during WWI
I told James he could pick where we had lunch, and surprisingly he picked Grumpy Jakes, the barbecue place. I didn't feel like barbecue so I ordered a green chili cheeseburger. James made me look bad by ordering the cobb salad. I did not regret my choice. It was delicious. I couldn't eat all of my cheeseburger so I got a to go box. James kept stealing bites while we were in the car. I think he realized he really missed out!
After lunch James dropped me off at Walmart while he went to Home Depot to get the specialty lightbulbs that go over our kitchen sink. When he came back to pick me up, he loaded the groceries in the car for me. When we got home we realized James left my 12 pack of Dr. Pepper 10 in the grocery cart. Before we decided what we were going to do about this dilemma, we sat down and watched a movie. This one was called "Finding a Family". It was more serious than most of the movies we watch and was based on a true story. It started out really depressing, but had a great ending! This movie makes you realize how important it is for children to have a stable home life. After our movies we decided to hunt down some Dr. Pepper 10.
Our first stop for the Dr. Pepper 10 search was the closest choice, Stanford store, but no luck. Next Maverick, none. Safeway, none. Finally at Walmart James comes out with a 24 pk and says it's the last one in the store I can't believe he was willing to do this for me!
( Of course, he is the one who forgot it in the first place.)
We came home and worked on our lessons, although Ed Miller will probably be teaching James's class because he still has laringitis.
I coughed during the night and had to go to the recliner.
