Restoration Proclamation
#4
We affirm that under the direction of the Father and the Son, heavenly messengers came to instruct Joseph and re-establish the Church of Jesus Christ. The resurrected John the Baptist restored the authority to baptize by immersion for the remission of sins. Three of the original twelve Apostles - Peter, James, and John - restored the apostleship and keys of priesthood authority. Others came as well, including Elijah, who restored the authority to join families together forever in eternal relationships that transcend death.

Inklings
I am an instrument in His hands on the errand of His angels. The Lord has need of my unique gifts and talents to feed His sheep. I pray He'll use me.

Up at 4:55. Updated my phone to IOS 14.8. 
Today is my friend Charlotte Mattice's birthday. She is 83. I wonder how she is doing. Since moving to assisted living I have lost contact with her as she no longer has her phone. She could not tell me the name of the facility. The only way I have of wishing her a Happy Birthday is on Facebook, which I did.

James left for his radiation treatment a little before 7 in his truck. I left for town in my car at 8:10 for my 9:00 appointment at Walmart to get new tires. I stopped at Goodwill and made a deposit. After leaving my car at the tire bay, I walked around to the front of the store and mailed a note to Vickie then went inside the store to do my shopping. Less than an hour later the car was done. I checked out and picked up the car. James called and asked if I would pick up his prescription at CVS. It was supposed to be ready by yesterday afternoon. When I got there the attendant said it was not ready. I complained and left. Later, James got a call that it was ready. He has enough to last him until we can get back to pick it up. 

James picked up the mail on the way home. There was lots of it. Two types of pills, pot holders, purple pens, and a glucose monitor I ordered. Missing were six notebooks I ordered from Amazon which says they were delivered. I will have to go to the post office tomorrow and see if they have them. 

It's 5 p.m. James has been working outside on the water lines until he got muddy and wet and cold. He's in the dining room with the portable heater blowing directly on him. I'm in the bedroom with two fans going.

I couldn't read from the Saints today. It was just too sad and I've heard it all before. Why did the Saints have to suffer so much? To condemn the wicked? In D&C 117:13 it says: "...for his sacrifice shall be more sacred unto me than his increase, saith the Lord."
This was to Oliver Granger but I wonder if this applies to the Saints in Missouri at this time.

Sheri, I'm working on the ice cream puzzle, a couple of pieces a day. Hopefully I will have it done before the end of the year.




Who remembers?








The other night when Frankie Avalon was on "DWTS" it reminded me of all the beach movies I watched as a teenager starring Frankie and Annette Funicello. I love Annette so I looked her up knowing she had passed away.


The youngest photo I have ever seen of Wade and Veleda. Veleda was my mom's best friend and Wade was a friend of my dad's when they were teenagers.






Happy 83rd Birthday Charlotte!
