James left for the valley this morning to go check out his jobs and to get some money to Armando. Neither one of us can send money via Venmo right now. James called to complain and they said our accounts were fine but there was a review block on them which was done by their mother company, Paypal. Paypal is the bane of our existence.

I felt a little better today and was able to do some work on the pantry. I called AARA (Arizona Arthritis & Rheumatology Associates).

I explained that I had an appointment next Monday and I wanted to make sure they had me down to receive my new medication, simponi aria. I was told I would receive a call back, which I did. I am scheduled to receive my first dose of the new medicine next Monday, April 15, at 10:15 a.m. I am excited!

I made two blog posts today which I need to do consistently everyday for at least a week for me to get caught up. I wonder if I ever will get caught up?

I read from my book, "The Savior in Kirtland" and I can say I am really enjoying it. So much I didn't know about this period of time and about some of the major players in the Restoration, such as Sidney Rigdon. I had always thought he was a little arrogant but I have a whole new appreciation for him after reading about him in this book.

I read the first 33 verses of D&C 109. President Nelson has asked us to study this section of the Doctrine and Covenants. 

James came home this evening and brought me two mixed green chili burros from Burger House and a turtle Blizzard from Dairy Queen. I ate half of one of the burros and all of the melted Blizzard. Very tasty!

James walked and we listened to "Finding Jane Fairfax".

This is me!

We have one more project, downstairs.

I haven't even been down there to see the chaos.
