Just Keep Going - With Faith

Elder Carl B. Cook

Of the Presidency of the Seventy

Thankfully, when we are weak or incapable, the Lord can strengthen our faith. He can increase our capacity beyond our own. I have experienced that.

We left for the valley this morning at 6:30 a.m. My infusion is scheduled for 10:30 which gives us plenty of time. We went the Payson way in my car.

We went through Burger King in Payson and got croissants. I got bacon and James got ham. James dropped me off at AARA before ten and he left to meet Armando at the Casa Grande airport. Frances called me right back after checking in. Armanda started my infusion somewhere between 10:05-10:10. 

I finished my infusion before James got back from Casa Grande so I walked over to Costco. James arrived about 20 minutes later. Here are some of the things we bought:

Toilet tissue, a 27 gallon storage container, two loaves of Dave's thin bread, banana walnut mini loaves, Swiffer duster refills, trash bags, walnuts, pistachios, a watermelon, acai and pomegranate juice, lemons, and my alkaline balanced water.

After our shopping spree we were hungry so we looked up the nearest Chili's. Kim gave James a gift card for Father's Day. The closest Chili's was at Stapley just south of the 60. 

I got a text from Trina asking where the vacuum was. They are cleaning up and getting ready to go. They will be leaving soon and Rowan is going to stay there to help James work this week. I asked her to take a selfie which she did.

Love these faces!

We were disappointed with our meals at Chili's. I wanted my Carribean salad which they don't offer any more. I got a steak with potatoes and broccoli. The steak was tough and the potatoes tasted like they came from a box. James got a philly cheesesteak and he said it wasn't as good as the one at Persnikkity's in Show Low.

We went home the Globe way so James could stop at the Peeler's for some measurements. While James was at the Peeler's I went to McDonald's and got an ice cream. 

We got home before 5. Rowan helped James get rid of some more bees. James said about 1,000 this time. I was outside on the patio and got stung. Rowan got stung too. 

We had a frozen pizza, leftover burgers, and cereal for dinner. 

James and I walked to get our 10,000 steps after spending half of the day in the car. 

Got my new credit card today to replace the one someone used.
