Book of Mormon
2 Nephi 2:1-10
27 - Wherefore, men are free according to the flesh; and all things are given them which are expedient unto man. And they are free to choose liberty and eternal life, through the great Mediator of all men, or to choose captivity and death, according to the captivity and power of the devil; for he seeketh that all men might be miserable like unto himself.
Come Follow Me

After taking my thyroid pill this morning I sat on the recliner just waiting until I could eat something. I am supposed to wait 30 minutes. As I was waiting, I could feel the left side of my face down around my mouth starting to swell. I thought back and remembered I had taken some Naprosyn a couple of days ago. I believe that is what makes my face swell. I'm glad I don't have anywhere to go today.

Today is Stacy's 52nd birthday. Happy Birthday Stacy!

Sheri texted me this morning and said she got the results of her biopsy back. There is no cancer. Thank goodness!

I listened to Emily and Rio on Inklings this morning discuss Elder Phillip's conference talk, "God Knows and Loves You." It's a good way to start a day when you day hasn't started out to well. (Does that make sense?).

Stacy sent out a group text this afternoon asking if when Jared & Kacey are in town if everyone wanted to get together at their house for a potluck and some games. We decided on Friday night. Thanks Stacy.

I made James a ham and cheese sandwich and a bowl of chili before he had to go to his presidency meeting. 

Did I mention that it snowed again today. Tom was in the house this evening and he followed me from room to room. As I was working at my computer he jumped up on the desk. He just wants to be close. 

When James got home he put Tom out. He is afraid about the whole potty thing. We have a cat box but I don't think it's big enough for Tom.

Today's quotes:
"Rather than becoming bitter, let Him help you become better."
Elder Dale G. Renlund

"If our children and grandchildren are taught and heed these same truths, will they fall away? We best instruct them in the Book of Mormon at our dinner table, by our firesides, at their bedsides, and in our letters and phone calls - in all of our comings and goings."

The swelling in my face went down a little. 

I had Stacy on Sandy's birthday.
She had Teresa 2 days after mine.

Kim made sugar cookies for Stacy's birthday.
It's what she asked for when Kim offered to
make her a cake.

One of the things I love about snow is how it
sparkles when sun shines on it.
You can't really see it here though.


He doesn't mind that I'm changing sheets and
there is no bedding on the bed.
