'Bonded to Jesus Christ: Becoming the Salt of the Earth'
Elder Jose A. Teixeira
"Our youth have shown remarkable courage and devotion. They have enthusiastically embraced the work of family history, and their frequent visits to the house of the Lord are a testament to their dedication. Their willingness to devote time and energy to serve missions across the globe reflects a deep and abiding faith. They are not merely participating but leading the way in becoming disciples bonded to Jesus Christ. Their service radiates light and hope, touching countless lives. To you, the youth of the Church, we express our heartfelt thanks for you inspiring service. You are not just the Church's future but its present. And you are indeed the salt of the earth!"

No word or money from Daryl Johnson. I guess his dad is not going to bail him out this time. A lien will be filed against him, which means he will have to move out of the building.

The Genius Wave Express program starts something like this:
"Welcome back. You're about to do something wonderful for yourself just by being here."

Sammy got a little closer to me today. I fed him and looked outside and he was looking at me with his head sticking out of the little kitty house we have. He was so brave this evening he almost came in the house. Tom went outside and he kissed Tom on the nose. 

James went to pick up the Razr in spite of the cold sores all over his lips. We were supposed to go to the temple with the Grombach's today but had to cancel because of the cold sores. They could be contagious and they look terrible. Janna brought over some medicine she uses when she gets cold sores. They look like horse pills. Janna says take one and then the second, 12 hours later and that is it. Your cold sores will be gone in a couple of days. The pills are called Valetrex.

James just drove the Razr around a little and he thinks it may have transmission problems. The bed and front hood are also missing. The bed is at Willy's but we don't know where the front hood is. I guess we will have to order another one.

I am still having problems downloading photos on my computer. I have over 73,000 photos on my computer. Most of them are backed up on my photo stick so I began deleting them until there were less than 3,000 left. I also deleted the photos on my phone.

While brushing my teeth this afternoon the last veneer on my upper left side came off. I texted Pierce and he asked if I could come in tomorrow at 2. I said I would be there. 

Tom was inside the house all day today and I'm not sure why. He finally went out around 7 p.m. Lots of snow has melted. Maybe tom doesn't like the mud. I paid bills today, Verizon, Hatch's Concrete, Titan Lien, and Perkins. 

Finished chapter 20 of "The Gentleman's Confession" and watched "A Vintage Christmas" on GAF.

It's that time of year


The many faces of Tom
