'Forgiving What You Can't Forget'
I was up at 4:30 this morning and was still going strong at 5:30 this afternoon. The prednisone I started on May 28th is working wonders! For the first time in a long time, I got my 10,000 steps before James took my phone this evening at 7:30.
I kept a steady pace this morning doing just about everything on my schedule. I texted Max to see how he was doing and got the sweetest text back from him.
"I'm doing great! Thank you for asking. I recently
started school to become an EMT and am really
enjoying it. I forgot how much I loved to learn.
I am especially liking it because the people I meet share
similar values and goals. I have also been meeting some of
the cadets and firefighters of the Phoenix
Fire Department, which I want to make a career
out of. I am not gonna lie, it is a lot of work,
between school (a lot of studying), work, and exercise,
so I've been a little overwhelmed and
stressed. But I have also found myself
more capable of dealing with that stress than ever.
I feel I am living each day to the fullest.
My faith in God has been fully restored. For a long
time I didn't believe in anything, but I know
God never stopped believing in me. I know God has great
plans for me. I will try my best to achieve them. I know
failure will come my way. But I will never stop working, and
trying again, no matter what hardships and sorrow I face. I truly
am beginning to love life again, even though it is so hard.
Glad to hear Max is working towards his goals and that his faith in God has been restored. I encouraged him to keep praying and reading from the Book of Mormon.
I texted with Sheri and chatted with Stacy a bit before my doctor's appointment at 1:20 this afternoon with Dr. Brady. This is my wellness check for the year.
The road construction on the 60 maybe me just a few minutes late. Dr. Brady's office is in the Summit Complex. You go to the third floor and everyone seeing a doctor on that floor gets in a line and their are several employees waiting to check people in. You are then assigned a room in one of six hallways. The names of the hallways are: Mountain, Cloud, Lake, River, Aspen, and Trail. I am always in the Cloud hallway either in room 11 or 12. Today it was 12.
After my appointment I did some shopping at Walmart and then drove home. James said it rained 20-30 minutes while I was gone. There was no rain in Show Low.
James helped Jeff & Susan Crane this afternoon with the plumbing they are working on for their pump house. He also made a trip to Pinetop only to find out that Matt Hipps was not ready for him.
I bought a broccoli and cheese quiche at Walmart and that's what we had for dinner. It was quite tasty and high in protein.
I typed a letter for James to the Internal Revenue Service about his business taxes. They keep saying he owes them money and now they are tacking on late fees and he doesn't know what the charges are for. He tries to communicate online but isn't able to and he can never get anyone to answer his calls, so a letter was his next course of action.
All of the components for my RS "gifts" are here. Now I just have to assemble boxes, stuff the gift bags, and put bows on the boxes for 50 sisters.
I bought a new game called "A Ticket to Ride." Janna told me that they play this game a lot. I think I will aske her and Willy if they will come over and teach us how to play. I want to invite my brothers Harold and Dennis, and their wives, Vickie and Denise over to play games and have a light meal. I am ready to play something other than Five Crowns.
We got a thank you from Ben & Cayli for having the wedding here at the cabin. They also sent us some photos from the wedding.
I mailed temple baptism names to Stacy. They are supposed to be making an appointment for Joshua and Evan.
Jared Ammon paid back part of the money he borrowed from us.
Quote
"The simple doctrine of Jesus Christ...allows us to be
spiritually cleansed and ultimately be welcomed into God's presence."
D&C 60:2
But with some I am not well pleased, for they will not open their mouths, but they hide the talent which I have given unto them, because of the fear of man. Wo unto such, for mine anger is kindled against them.
Oceanside, California with friends.

Tom stares at Harry. I think he
doesn't like the fast that Harry is
invading his territory.
