Lesson
"Follow Him"
"Fishers of Men"
Up at 2:18, oh happy day! Thyroid pill, check on beans in the crockpot which have been cooking all night. Let the cook a little longer. Undo puzzle, Perk, Tender Mercies journal, prayer, blog, walk, blackberries, salted caramel shake, now my turkey link. I've been up four hours and it's only 6:30. I put the beans in the frig to 'marinate.'
Sheri and Ian are coming today. We got some rain this morning. James had to come in from working on the deck. I was working in the house and listening to "Fishers of Men." At 11:03 the electricity went off because of the hard rain, I suppose. I could think of nothing better to do so I sat down on my recliner. Of course Tom joined me and I was in 'cat prison.' The electricity was only off for about an hour, thank goodness. I put sheets on their bed and made sure Darrel & Trina's room was ready as well as Sheri & Ian's.
James's feet are really bothering him but he continues to work on the deck.
When Ian and Sheri got her with Oliver and Ziggie Tom could hear them bark. He was on our bed. His ears perked up but he didn't move. He knows he is safe in the bedroom.
Sheri gave Ian instructions on what to do with the sourdough bread she was making while she and I went to Walmart. The ominous black clouds that were over Show Low dissipated before we got there so we did not get rained on.
Walmart is busy, as it usually is. Sheri and I went our separate ways. I bought a 2 inch notebook and some notebook dividers to put the 44 talks in that President Nelson has given since becoming the Prophet. I also bought some laminating paper because James wants me to laminate his new temple recommend. I bought some cream cheese for the frosting for Chelsea MacArthur's birthday cake. I also bought a couple of steaks, some chicken, turkey links, and a pound of hamburger. Sheri finishes before I do and goes out to the car. I text her to come back in and bag for me while I check out, which she did.
James had the mixed burro that Sheri & Ian brought him from Burger House for dinner. Ian said that Ollie cried for Sheri the entire time we were gone. He really is a mama's boy. For all of my cleaning and getting things ready upstairs, Sheri and Ian are staying downstairs. Oh well, at least I have a clean house ready for company.
"As disciples of Jesus Christ, we are invited to develop the gift of reverence in our lives."

D&C 101:8
In the day of their peace they esteemed lightly my counsel; but, in the day of their trouble, of necessity they feel after me.
