"Seeing More of Jesus Christ in Our Lives"
Sister Tracy Y. Browning
Second Counselor in the Primary General Presidency
In our lives that are often filled with questions, worries, pressures, and opportunities, our Savior's love for us individually and as His covenant children and also His teachings and laws are available daily resources that we can depend on to be a "light which shineth, ... enlightening our eyes and quickening our understandings." As we seek for the blessings of the Spirit in our lives, we will be able to, as Jacob taught, see "things are they really are, and ... as they really will be."
5:00 I was up. I spent an hour with my prayer journal. At 7:00 this morning it started to snow and snowed most of the day. While working on my blog I listened to and took notes on "Teaching with Power" with Ben Wilcox.
I love living in Vernon because of the variety in weather and scenery. In August we have sunflowers, lantana, and green fields. Then fall and the leaves change color. Today the trees all look like they are frosted and they are so beautiful!
Our trip to town amidst a snow storm included: A Sonic run, Chase to deposit Barbara's checks for her because she was afraid to drive in the snow, James's doctor's appointment with Dr. Ellsworth regarding his thumb, my trip to Walmart, James's trip to Home Depot, a Goodwill drop-off, Desert Title to sign the Deming land over to the Quintana's, CVS for James's neuropathy prescription, and home again home again jiggity jig. Whew. Oh yes, we also stopped at the Vernon post office and there was a package for me sent from England. this is what it contained:
Along with this cup came a catalog of all of these other different kitchen accessories that I want: Cannisters, butter dish, cream and sugar containers. Maybe these could be my Christmas gifts from James?
The doctor gave James a steroid shot in his thumb. He said if it didn't help his thumb to feel better, he would probably have to have surgery.
When we got home, after putting the groceries away, I rested, blogged and walked as it continued to snow. James built me a fire.
I had orange chicken and chow mein noddles for dinner. We also made a Panda stop while in town. James had an egg roll.
While walking I did a little cleaning in our bedroom. I cleaned up James's corner, moved my upright jewelry cabinet next to the bed as my night stand and made room for a file cabinet by the bathroom better. I put my former nightstand table by the recliners. It looks so much better over by the window on my side of the bed.
James and I walked and read before going to bed.
it's about the same place as Logan's
More snow
When I cleaned out the containers by the
window, I found these guys.
