"All Things for Our Good" by Elder Gerrit W. Gong

Romans 8:28

'All things work together for our good to them that love God.'

D&C 109:29

We ask thee, Holy Father, to confound, and astonish, and to bring to shame and confusion, all those who have spread lying reports abroad, over the world, against thy servant or servants, if they will not repent, when the everlasting gospel shall be proclaimed in their ears;

When I woke up this morning the left side of my face was swollen so badly I couldn't see out of my left eye. Even though it is hideous, I am going to post a picture.

When Ben was little and I had cellulitis in my face

he said: "Gramma, don't look at me with that face."

We had a meeting with the resort this morning at 8:30 about our ownership. We both had to come and if we did, we would have received a $200 Visa card. I had to cancel. James told me I could take an extra $200 out this month for my personal draw. Thanks Honey. 

Dawn had asked me to come over this afternoon to make cards with her and Lois. I had to cancel and I sent this photo to Dawn so she would see that I was legit. 

I also cancelled my eye appointment and James's with Chandler Eyecare. We were going in tomorrow morning. I also sent the photo to Sheri. She kept texting me and insisting that I call the doctor. I guess she has never seen my face like this before.

I told Stacy and she said I needed to go to the doctor and get an epi pen. She said that if my air passages became blocked having an epi pen could save my life. I guess that is a reason to go to the doctor.

James went to the store and got me some extra-strength Benadryl, which seems to help. BTW, I still can't use my right arm. It looks like I have been in a fight. I guess I could say, "Why me?" but what good would that do?

We still have $100 left on our Cheesecake gift card. Today I ordered, at least I thought I did, Thai chicken lettuce wraps. James ordered stuffed mushrooms. When James went to pick up our order there was no chicken with my lettuce wraps. James called to complain. He spoke to the manager who said he had our order right in front of him and that I had ordered avocado lettuce wraps which have no chicken. I checked and he was right. It was my mistake. James was on his way to see a doctor about having surgery on his thumb. The manager told him to call and they would have an order of Thai chicken lettuce wraps waiting for him to pick up, no charge. What a nice gesture!

The chicken lettuce wraps were good but nothing compared to the ones I love at Pei Wei. Oh well, they were free. Oh yes, I also bought a piece of my favorite cheesecake. Plain cheese cake with fresh strawberries in a glaze. Yummy, creamy, and delicious! I better get to walking!

Listened to "Flat Deception" and "A Proper Scandal."
