October General Conference
'Behold I am the Light Which Ye Shall Hold Up'
Elder Ronald A. Rasband
"Our love is evident when we sustain one another in His work. We sustain our living prophet at general conference, and the First Presidency, the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles, General Authorities, and Officers of the Church. To sustain means to hold up another person, to give them our attention, to be faithful to their trust, to act upon their words. They speak by inspiration of the Lord; they understand the current issues, the moral decline of society, and the adversary's increasing efforts to thwart the Father's plan. In holding up our hands, we are committing our support, not just for that moment but in our daily lives."
I was wondering this morning how Stacy, Paul, Joshua, Alayna, Shipley, Sophie, and Vader all ride together in their small car. I did see a photo of Paul driving and Vader sitting on his lap. I guess everyone could hold a dog with one person to spare.
Today was a lazy day for me. I worked on my blog, and unwrapped Christmas gifts from Lois and Dawn. They gave both James and I a $50 Amazon gift card, just like we gave them. Each of us also got a $50 Amazon card from Sheri and Ian, and a $40 one from Kim and Brian. Lois and Dawn gave me a box of purple towels, like the ones last year, two blouses, and a nail drying device and a cute bag of nail supplies.
From Sheri we got a framed picture of both of us with Cayli and Ben at the wedding. Everyone else looks great and I look frumpy.
James got a plaid shirt from his Mom and Dawn and he also got a new wallet. He gets a new wallet every year.
James loaded up the Razr on the trailer so he can take it in tomorrow morning. Joshua and Alayna helped him. Alayna was steering the Razr and Joshua was trying to clear rocks out of the way. James appreciated their help because he couldn't have done it by himself.
Stacy is working on a puzzle at the high table, the nativity set is pushed to front of the table to make room. Paul has to work and he has his computer set up at the dining room table next to where James works. I keep my bedroom door closed so that the dogs can't come in and bother Tom who did a lot of sleeping today.
Instead of making the chicken they were going to make yesterday, the Gonzo's and Alayna went in to town to eat at Pizza Factory. James and I ate leftovers. Afterwards the Gonzo's went shopping at Safeway. Stacy says that out of the 8 items she wanted, Safeway only had 4, they didn't even have eggs, so they had to go to Walmart too. While they were gone, the dogs were very well behaved, lying on blankets, looking bored.
Tom and I watched a Christmas movie this evening while James walked and listened to his book. He is two books a head of me now. We went to bed and Tom, instead of sleeping at the end of our bed, slept on the recliner.
