Lesson
Outline and whiteboard questions

James left after prayer, Book of Mormon, and Come Follow Me for Matt Hipps', which is in Pinetop. Matt had a 2,900 square foot home in the pines. His home has been valued at over $1,100,000. He says he can sell it, and buy a new home and still have over $200,000. I think this got James to thinking about our home and land and what we could sell it for.

I finally finished my handouts. I wrote the lesson information on the back and actually ironed all 57 of them so they would lay flat. Whew! Finally!

Tom came in and instead of laying on our bed or on "his high chair" near the entry table, he disappears upstairs. I guess he needs more peace and quiet and wants to be alone. He finally reappears gets his treat and a brush down and then goes outside.

I worked on creating a list of questions for my lesson to write on the whiteboard tomorrow. I worked until 8:00 and then, because I wanted to get up at 3 to finish up, told James I wanted to go to bed. 
We lay in bed and talked for awhile, which is something we love to do. I looked at the clock and I realized it was no longer 8 o'clock. Maybe I will sleep in until 4. After James went to sleep I went in to the living room and slept on the recliner because of my sciatic nerve.
