"When To Receive Your Patriarchal Blessing" Elder Kazuhiko Yamashita
I didn't get up until 6:37 this morning. It was another restless, up and down night.
James met the inspector over at Barbara's and came back with a big grin on his face. They passed the final inspection! While he was there T-Bo asked him to please give him a haircut. He also said that Barbara's son has not left Nauvoo yet. They were in the pageant and just finished. I guess there wasn't the big rush that I thought there was.
The electricity was off for an hour and a half again today. I'm beginning to think this is planned. It was right when I was getting ready to go to town. I finally gave up doing my hair and just made the best of it without curling it. Right after we left James had to come back and get a check for the accountant. I waited for him in the truck. When he got back he said the electricity was back on.
James dropped me off at Walmart while he went to the accountant's to pay her for doing our taxes. He called me and asked if I wanted him to order lunch from LaCasita. I said yes. We got the mail on our trip and I got two new credit cards to replace the ones that were used without my permission. I also got another puzzle which I can take with me next week to the timeshare.
We enjoyed our enchiladas when we got home. Also, James ordered us a mixed burro to share tomorrow for lunch. Getting lunch at LaCasita is cheaper than Firehouse and Culver's and the food is quite delicious!
I picked up Kathy Crane a little before 2:30 and we drove over to see Alice Wilhelm who lives in the MacArthur's house. The MacArthur's left their dog, Ernie, and he was the first to greet us. He especially likes Kathy because she likes him. I'm a little indifferent because I don't want him to jump on me.
We had a nice visit with Alice. She is engaged and lives with her boyfriend. She has several tattoos and her entire left arm is covered in one. She quit going to church when she graduated from high school and moved out of her parents house. Her parents are in our ward. Alice is a paramedic and a firefighter. She and her boyfriend love to hunt and they have mounted skulls with horns all over their house.
Back to Alice being a paramedic. In January her grandpa Mel, her dad's dad and who is also in our ward, had a heart attack. Alice was working in the hospital at the time and when he stopped breathing and his heart stopped she was the one who brought him back. Now he tells everyone that Alice saved his life. Alice is a likable girl. Kathy and I both her her in Young Women's and we both gave her a hug when we left.
When I drove Kathy home she told me a little bit about what is going on in their life. Yesterday their car broke down on the way back from Globe and they had to wait three hours for a tow truck. Their air conditioning in their house has been out for several days and they can't seem to get anyone to fix it. And last, but not least, their son and his family who live in Gilbert have sold their home and they are moving to Richmond, Virginia. They had thought about moving up here, but Jeff, their son, who grew up in California, wants to be by the ocean. Kathy is so sad about her grandchildren moving away. I felt so sorry for her. I wish there was something that I could do besides pray for her.
I helped James set two more poles and then he saddled up Luna and drove off another herd of cows before coming in.
