"As we concentrate our hearts and minds on Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ and listen to the still, small voice of the Holy Ghost, we will have greater clarity about what is most needful, develop deeper compassion, and find rest and strength in Him."
I finished my lesson handouts before noon today, all 56 of them. Now for the lesson wrap up.
We have been praying for Donna Beckham as she has been in the hospital with pneumonia. She is a member of our ward and one of my Bunco friends. She sent a text out today to her Bunco friends and this is what she said:
"This is from Donna. I'm better than I was a few days ago. I came home from the hospital last night. I have to be on oxygen for awhile. I still have a horrible cough! They have me on six new medications. This is what is wrong with me - I have pneumonia, influenza A, a bacterial infection and nodules on my lungs. They still don't know what type of bacteria it is. I should be able to play Bunco on Thursday. I will no longer be infectious. Gene also got very sick. He has the flu as well. He has had a fever and isn't moving from his recliner."
Donna and her husband Gene still need our prayers. I wonder how their daughter Michelle is doing. She had knee surgery a few weeks ago. I hope she is at Bunco so I can talk to her. I am really closer to Michelle than I am Donna, although they are both my friends.
Tom slept on our bed all morning after being out all night.
did all night long.
James loaded up tree branches he cut down and put them on the ever growing burn pile. He said he is starting a new pile because the first one is so big. He also went to Beach's and worked for awhile and then went out to see Anthony who is building an addition onto his little house. James pointed out all of the things Anthony was doing wrong and Anthony was grateful.
I tried to make some popcorn today which turned out to be a disaster. The popcorn seeds were old and tasted hard and chewy. James took the seeds and scattered them outside for the birds.
The frustrations of technology. My computer keeps freezing up while I am trying to type up my lesson. I keep having to turn it off and then back on. Along with working on my lesson I am reading D&C 84 & 107 as President Nelson asked the sisters to do in his 2019 talk, "Spiritual Treasures." They are both over 100 verses long. I especially like section 84 and will be studying it in greater detail after my lesson.
I have been sneezing like crazy today. Hopefully this doesn't happen tomorrow during my lesson. I am not a dainty sneezer.
Spring is here. 60 degrees and thank goodness, no wind! We still need more rain. I craved going to the temple this week, but alas, it is closed through March 31st.
We have a new Easter symbol here in Vernon. I first heard about on Facebook when my friend Pam Giles did a post saying she was watching them put it up this morning with the use of a crane.
is an eyesore. I disagree.
I found out later that it was our
bishop and his brother who
put up the cross.
