Anger leads to sorrow and suffering.

'Aligning Our Will with His'
Elder Ulisses Soares
During our sojourn in mortality, we often wrestle with what we think we know what we think is best, and what we assume works for us, as opposed to comprehending what Heavenly Father actually knows, what is eternally best, and what absolutely works for children within His plan. This great wrestle can become very complex, especially considering the prophecies contained in the scriptures for our day: 'This know also, that in the last day ... men shall be lovers of their own selves, ... lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God.'"
I woke up at 3am. At 7:30 I made breakfast for James and Rowan, cinnamon rolls, scrambled eggs, bacon and toast.
I am not sure if I told this story earlier or not but Betty Trezise, Ian's mom paid Kim $100 for ten of her cupcakes. She took all three flavors. Kim said she didn't want to charge her but Betty insisted. She said she wanted them for her friends.
Today is James's sister Carmen's birthday. I'm not sure how old she is, she is younger than Dawn and older than Rebecca. I miss Carmen since she moved to Pennsylvania.
James taught Rowan to drive the skidsteer today. Rowan returned Pierce's rock picker attachment and borrowed his auger to dig post holes for the fence. The auger broke before too long and Rowan ended up digging the holes.
James came in to get me to go to town around 3 pm. He hurries me because he is picking up pipe at White Mountain Steel and they close at 4 pm. I hurried so much I forgot my phone with my grocery list on it. I was pretty frustrated with myself and with James too.
I tried to write a list from what I could remember and did pretty well. While I was at Walmart James went to Home Depot. One of the pipes he got a White Mountain Steel was way too long and he was getting some rope and a red flag to put on this long pipe. He tried to get the tailgate down so he could take care of the pipe. He didn't think he got it opened but when he drove away the tailgate came down and all of the pipes fell out. They are rusty and he had to pick them all up. He was quite a mess when he came in to Walmart. He did manage to get the red flag on. After we were finished at Walmart we went to Ace Hardware to get a blade for the chain saw. Michael, Paul, Joe, and Max are coming up tonight and working tomorrow.
We stopped at Little Caesar's and got Rowan a pepperoni pizza and a cheese one for us.
James walked and I watched a movie. We were asleep when Michael and company arrive. Tom heard them and put his head up and then I heard them. I guess I wasn't quite asleep.
