Jesus Christ, Light of the World
John 1:4
In him was life; and the life was the light of men.
Book of Mormon/"Come Follow Me"
Alma 40:15-26; "Don't Miss This" and "Teaching with Power"
April General Conference
"The Finest Homes"
L. Whitney Clayton
  Residents in the finest homes make time to study the scriptures and the words of living prophets every day. President Russell M. Nelson has invited us to "transform" and "remodel" our homes through gospel study. His invitation recognizes that fine homes house the tender, vital work of personal growth and remodeling our weaknesses. Daily repentance is a transformative tool that enables us to grow a little kinder, more loving, and more understanding. Studying the scriptures brings us closer to the Savior, whose generous love and grace assist us with our growth.



Anthony came early to help with the fence this morning. James says he only works about two and a half hours and then he is done. The goal is to finish the fence by my birthday. 

I could not find the clothes that I wear around the house, two shirts and two pants were missing. I looked in the laundry room and in my closet. I could not think where else they would be. Suddenly I thought maybe I should check James's closet. Walla! There they were. He swears he did not put them there. I'm pretty sure I didn't. I guess it was the gremlin.

James made a trip to town today. He called me and asked if there was anything he could get me. I told him some caramel shakes and diet Coke. He came back with the shakes and some shakes for himself, Stevia, but no diet Coke. What's a girl to do?

I actually did two blog posts today but it takes so much time because my computer freezes up when I am using my photo app. Sometimes I wonder if it is worth it.

I still have 13 books stranded. So frustrating because I feel I have done nothing to merit this. I'm not sure if they are making new rules or if there are a bunch of new people at Amazon who don't really know what they are doing.

I walked, rested, and walked some more trying to catch up in that area of my life too. I'm behind in every aspect of my life: blog, Book of Mormon study guide, books, and walking. Sometimes I wonder if I will ever catch up. 

I had Kodiak power cakes for dinner and then watched "Don't Miss This" and "Teaching with Power." I also worked on my Book of Mormon Study Guide but did not catch up. 

James worked on the fence this afternoon and then took a Luna ride.
