"We are grateful to be on earth when the Church is increasing in numbers and influence, but more importantly in the hearts and lives of its members. We are known as disciples of Jesus Christ. We share our testimonies of Him, His Church, His ways, and His covenant path. We are His people, and He is our Savior."

Another day spent at home. Another day that looked like rain but it never came. 

I seem to have gotten my blood sugar and blood pressure under control for the most part today. It takes effort and constant recording. 

James felt miserable today. Stacy thinks he needs to go to the doctor sooner than later. I told her he has an appointment next Thursday. Stacy is worried about internal bleeding. 

Sheri called her dad this morning. A clog in one of their water lines is causing flooding in the basement. James told her what to have Ian do. So many problems. 

James and I took a couple of naps today. It was one of those kind of days. I made pork chops for lunch and they were delicious. I tenderized them with baking soda for about 10 minutes before washing it off and baking them. 

Tonight was the YM/YW fundraiser dinner. We paid for tickets but didn't end up going. I wanted James to go pick up feed but he said he didn't feel like it so we missed out on Navajo tacos. The main part of the fundraiser is the dessert auction where people bid on desserts and pay mega bucks for them. Kathy Crane said she thought for sure I would bring one of my cakes. Now I am feeling guilty.

We finished "The Sound of Rain" and started the second book, "A Distant Thunder." I also finished President Nelson's book, "Heart of the Matter."

Lift up your voices and spare not. Call upon the nations to repent, both old and young, both bond and free, saying: Prepare yourselves for the great day of the Lord.
