'The Wind Did Never Cease to Blow'
Elder Aroldo Cavalcante
"The Master of masters caused 'a furious wind' to blow the Jaredites toward promised blessings. Similarly, we can decide to serve as a humble gust of wind in the Lord's hands. Just as 'the wind did never cease to blow' the Jaredites toward the promised and, we can help others progress in their journey to receive God's blessings."
We left for the valley around 6:18 this morning. We made it passed the Superior bridge where they are blasting before they closed the road. We stopped at the Circle K on the highway just outside of Superior. We didn't need gas but we got a tuna sandwich to share.
It is a gorgeous day in the Valley of the Sun, the high, 73 degrees. We drove straight to 2 U Glass, off of Kyrene and Chicago in west Chandler. The guy who works here gave me the remote to the TV and we had just started watching a Christmas movie when another customer came in. I turned the TV off and we went for a walk. The weather is beautiful for walking.
When they finished installing a new windshield in my car we thanked them and they gave us a check for $160.00. That's what I call service!
It was lunch time so we headed east down Chandler Blvd to Cafe Rio. It is Taco Tuesday. Tacos are $1.99. We should have taken advantage of this price but since we aren't in town very often, we didn't. I got a salad with pinto beans and sweet pork and a large drink. James got a tostado and a medium drink. We ended up spending close to $40! Later, when we saw Sheri I asked her where she went to lunch. She said, "Cafe Rio of course, for Taco Tuesday." Her lunch starts at 1:00 which is when I had my infusion.
After lunch we drove over to the Landings in Mesa where James and Armando are bidding a job. I dropped James off and went on to my infusion. Frances called me right back with some other patients. o more weighing!
Alex set up my infusion. When I was finished James was outside walking. Armando had dropped him off. Our next stop was Chandler Eyecare so James could give Sheri a blessing.
Sheri found an empty exam room for just the three of us. James gave a nice blessing and Sheri gave him a big hug afterwards.
We saw Cayli and Ben while we were there. Ben gave us each a hug. He and Cayli are going to Washington this weekend for a reception where Cayli's mom invited all the people in their ward.
We stopped at the Costco in Chandler to pick up some pomegranate juice, toilet paper, paper towels, brownie mix, Teflon cupcake tins, and Almond Roca.
The Chandler Costco is just south of the 101 so we headed north on the 101 and over on the 202 to the 87 and on to Payson. We stopped in Culver's in Payson for ice cream. James got a waffle cone and I got a hot fudge sundae.
We got home to Tom who seemed somewhat happy to see us. James walked and I watched the 500th episode of "Dancing with the Stars."
