"Jesus Christ is Relief" by Sister Camille N. Johnson

I got a message from FamilySearch this morning that an endowment had been done for Lila Mae Parker, one of my relatives. This is one of the names I gave Sheri so I guess she went to the temple this morning. I texted and thanked her.

James is having a difficult time communicating with Jay. We finally figured out that Jay's texts are not coming through to James's phone. So now he texts me. He sent me this:

Jared says this is what the car was doing and it

caused him to land in the ditch. This accident 

was not his fault. Something is wrong with my car.

Our main concern today was to get the car towed to a body shop so they can assess the damage and report it to the insurance company. 

The towing company towed it to the wrong body shop. There are several Caliber Collision body shops and they towed it to one way over on the other side of Chandler. James called and complained and said when he started to give the address to the driver he cut James off and said, "I know where it is." We got a $36 refund.

Here at home I had a cooking day. I had food in the frig that needed to be cooked. I thought JA (Jay) was going to be here this week so I had all of this food. Today I made pork chops in the crockpot, baked potatoes and chicken tacos with the roasted chicken I bought the other day. 

James cleaned up the scraps and tools off the deck and worked on the yard. His yardwork kept getting interrupted with rain. 

James and I finished our book, "Chiara's Choice," while walking this evening. 

People in California are getting ready for Hurricane Hillary to hit. It's the first tropical storm to hit southern California. Arizona and Nevada are supposed to get a substantial amount of rain as a result of the storm.

humming birds. He makes sure all of our

critters are fed.

I need to remember this.
