I went to bed last night at 9 and this morning I was up at 2:40. That's about all of the sleep I need. During my prayers I realize how many names I have on the Snowflake temple prayer roll. Kate Hahn is one of them. She has had cancer for many years. Now she has kidney disease and is struggling. She is at the Mayo Clinic and is running a fever. That can't seem to get it to come down. She is miserable and wants to come home. I told her that when she comes home I am going to fix her some homemade chicken noodle soup.

My schedule in the morning is all about studying the gospel and working on my blog, or personal history. I do have a temporal goal today and that is to get the information I need for JoNell at Thompson, Montgomery, DeRose law firm regarding the Agent Orange lawsuit regarding James's cancer. What I need is James's report cards from when he lived in New Mexico and his pathology reports concerning his cancer. Dr. Redimasu's office sent four pathology reports and James found the report cards we needed in a box upstairs in my office. This could have taken hours but only took a few minutes. I believe that was a tender mercy. I will have James sign the papers JoNell sent and have everything ready to sent before I go to the temple tomorrow. 

We had a glorious downpour of rain today and it was wonderful and so refreshing! The only sad thing that happened today was our dryer didn't get our clothes dry so I had to hang them around the house to get them dry. 

I am looking forward to tomorrow. I am taking Catherine and Kerri Halcomb to Woodland Lake to take pictures on the covered walking bridge.

I enjoyed reading from these books today: 

"Beloved Emma", and "Men are from Mars, Women and from Venus".

"When deacons, teachers, and priests help with the sacrament, they receive its blessings just like everyone else."

D&C 93:1

Verily, thus saith the Lord: it shall come to pass that every soul who forsaketh his sins and cometh unto me, and calleth on my name, and obeyeth my voice, and keepeth my commandments, shall see my face and know that I am;
