President Dallin H. Oaks
"He that hath the spirit of contention is not of me, but is of the devil, who is the father of contention, and he stirreth up the hearts of men to contend with anger, one with another. Behold, this is not my doctrine, to stir up the hearts of men with anger, one against another; but this is my doctrine, that such things should be done away." In His remaining ministry among the Nephites, Jesus taught other commandments closely related to His prohibition of contention."
Tom was out all night. When he went out at bed time I was determined I wasn't going to let him in until I got up in the morning. He was ready.
It snowed off and on all day today. Sometimes the sun was shining while it was snowing. We are so grateful for the moisture.
My focus this week is on menu planning, recipes, and nutrition. I want to get more protein in my diet. Sheri said the doctor told her she needed 120 grams of protein per day so that's what I'm aiming for. For breakfast I normally have a Premier protein shake and a turkey sausage. That's 40 grams of protein. At 10:00 I have Greek yogurt, some fruit, and a protein bar, 20 grams of protein.
Today at around 2 I made a tuna, cottage cheese salad with tomatoes, green onions, lettuce, and rice vinegar. This salad has about 25 grams of protein. For dinner I am going to try to have another 30 grams of protein. We will see how it goes.
Chuck and James went to see Cary Dobson this afternoon. They are applying for an agriculture allotment to lower our property taxes. This means they will allow Cary's cows to graze on their land.
James came home and went on and on about what a nice guy Cary Dobson is. He told Cary that I knew his mom and used to work out with her at Curves. This is true, I knew Carol Dobson, but only from visiting with her at Curves.
I'm making chicken tacos and Enchiritos for dinner. Enchiritos are something you can order at Taco Bell. The Enchiritos were not that great. The flour tortilla's were soggy and there were 8 of them. How are we going to eat all of these if we don't really care for them. As I was putting them in the frig I came up with an idea. Tomorrow I will "de-construct" these soggy Enchiritos. I will take the meat and beans out of the tortillas and toss the tortillas. From there I may fry up some corn tortillas and make tacos. We shall see.
There were lots of dishes to do after dinner and I was on my own.
We had a few snow flurries throughout the day but nothing that really stayed on the ground.
Notes & Quotes
Affirmation: "I am willing to follow Heavenly Father's plan instead of mine. I trust that His celestial perspective will lead me into a joyful eternity. I set aside self-centered pursuits that may keep me from His path and fully submit to following Him."
