October General Conference
'The Triumph of Hope'
Elder Neil L. Andersen
"May we nurture our precious faith, pressing forward with a perfect brightness of hope. I testify that our hope is our Savior, Jesus Christ. through Him, all our righteous dreams will be realized. He is the God of hope - the triumph of hope. He lives and He loves you, In the name of Jesus Christ, amen."
We got an invitation to attend the wedding reception of Isaac Dowdle. The Dowdle's were members of our ward in Chandler. James was Isaac's bishop when he was a teenager. Diana, his mom, is great about keeping us updated about their lives.
The other day I told about James writing a letter to the IRS regarding taxes. I was wrong. The letter was to the Arizona department of sales taxes regarding sales taxes he has to pay in the cities where he has jobs.
Another night sleeping in my bed. I am grateful that I am enjoying pain-free knees right now.
Sheri sent pictures from Rome at the Church's visitor center on the ground of the Rome temple.

I love this picture!
Willy Grombach went with James this morning to help fix Pierce's trencher. Willy did some welding on the trencher and somehow he and James together were able to fix it. Thank goodness!
I was going to go to town today but decided against it. Tom will be disappointed because he is out of treats.
James was in and out throughout the day. He usually works around the yard on Saturday's but because of the situation with the trencher he wasn't able to.
I'm excited to be teaching President Freeman's lesson this month in Relief Society. I started preparing today and ordered some mini-ministering angels to go with my handouts.
It was a quiet day today. The weather has turned cooler and we may get some rain or snow, but I'm not holding my breath. We are in Stage 1 Fire Restrictions and it's only the first of March.
I spent some time this afternoon planning my week. I have an infusion on Wednesday, March 5th. The temple will be closed the 17-31st so a trip to the temple this week is a must. We have Glady's (Buni's) funeral on Saturday at 11:00 in Pinedale so it's going to be a busy week.
Movies on my phone while resting and working at my desk:
"The Happiness Playbook"
"Love Across Time"
"Come Dance at My Wedding" - I loved this one which had John Schneider in it when he was younger. Sooo good!
