"Our Heartfelt All"

Elder Dieter F. Uchtdorf

Of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles

Consecration is different from sacrifice in at least one important way. When we consecrate something, we don't leave it to be consumed upon the altar. Rather, we put it to use in the Lord's service. We dedicate it to Him and His holy purposes. We receive the talents that the Lord has given..........ore helpful in building the Lord's kingdom. Very few of us will ever be asked to sacrifice our lives for the Savior. But we are all invited to consecrate our lives to Him.

Up at 4:45, fix lunch for James, a peanut butter and jam sandwich, two hard boiled eggs, grapes, and a couple of slices of cheese. He also wanted a Slimfast shake so I put one in his bag.

He was up an hour early so we had time for scriptures and family prayer before he left. He is driving and I am nervous for that and his ability to work with a broken ankle. He does need to finish this job for the Peeler's and Greg doesn't know what to do by himself, so I understand why he went, but I don't have to like it. 

Today is Kim and Brian's 27th anniversary. Here is something Brian wrote on Facebook:

I love these two, and Joe too!

This was my mantra today: Paint, Blog, Walk,...

I did wash the sheets on our bed and put them back on the bed all before James got home. I also called Dish because I can't watch the finale for season 8's "Kids Baking Championship." It keeps saying: This event has expired. I know it has not expired but I don't know what to do so I call Dish and talked to someone named John. He tried to help me and saw that my problem was not imagined, but real. He told me he would report it and I should receive an email tomorrow regarding the issue. I thanked him and hung up. We shall see.

When James gets home this evening he is exhausted and his left foot is very swollen. I suspect he may have overdone today. My heart goes out to him. While he is taking a shower I go in and fix some dinner. I made a salad and a pot of chili.

After dinner James works on his computer in the dining room. I go into the bedroom and work on my blog and my steps. James comes in about an hour later and asks if we can listen to our book. While we are listening he walks around the room and I ask him what he is doing? He says something about not having enough steps and I remind him that steps aren't important right now. His ankle healing is what's important. I get him to sit down after we finish our book, when I turn on McBride. It was a good one!

James decides to sleep in the bed tonight. This makes me happy but I am worried about him getting congested.
