James cancelled his concrete pour at the Hipps's this morning because of yesterday's rain. All of the trenches were filled with water. He rescheduled for Wednesday morning. 

My episode of Hailey Dean was so good today. It was called "The Will to Kill". Hailey finds the murderer of her former fiance Will. 

I watched this morning and then this evening I watched again with James. He agreed that it was a good episode.

Today is Max's birthday. He is having the time of his life in Europe. 

Here is a picture.

Happy 21st Max!

I want to serve a mission so badly. Since reading about all that Amulek gave up to serve the Lord, I have thought again about serving full-time. I talked to James about it. He is concerned about our health and our finances. We agreed that we would pray about it.

I listened to Barbara and Elaine on "Walk with Him." We discussed Elder Stevenson's talk, "Bridging the Two Great Commandments". Here are some of my notes:

E: Never give up on people.

B: When you receive a prompting, act on it!

E: We love in a way that they can become all that God wants them to become.

B: Focus on how God loves. Barb's tribute to Elain and her ability to love others. 

I visited with Pat Tedder today. Janna gave me directions, we visited a few minutes about Judy's bread recipe,  and then she left. Her brother Rob and his wife Andi came to be with Patsy. Patsy and I visited while there was a cloud burst outside. I felt like I shouldn't stay long because Rob & Andi brought dinner and they were waiting to eat. I said I would leave when the rain stopped. We visited a few minutes and I am so impressed with Patsy's positive attitude. Her goal is to put no weight on her leg so she will not have to have surgery. As soon as the rain stopped, I said my goodbyes and left.

When I got home James asked me if I would go to town with him. I said yes, I would. I'm not even sure now what the occasion was. I know we stopped at Taco Bell and Jack -in-the-Box for some grub.

While we were driving we got some phone calls, Daryl Johnson and Greg Hatch for James and Charlie Facetiming me. Charlie said she had sent me a surprise. I told her I love surprises and I was so excited to get home and check the mailbox!

When we stopped at the post office there was an Amazon box addressed to me. I also got my Weem gummies that I ordered for my hair.

This is what was in the Amazon box from Charlie:

I love it!

Thank you so much Charlie & Kacey!

I wonder if Ben & Cayli have seen this and priced it out.
