Up at 2:18. I start my day with prayer and Perk. I do some planning and make a to do list for the day. The name of the Savior for the day is: Mediator. 

I miss Sammy. I am not sure where he is but I haven't seen him in a few days. 

We had invited the MacArthur's over for F.H.E. this evening. Chelsea called and said she had sick kids so they wouldn't be coming. I told her we would try again next Monday night. 

I read from my book, "Look Unto Christ in Every Thought" and took a nap with Tom. James had been working on the fence when he came in and said that the Cat needs anti-freeze. 

Chuck called and said he was going to the dump. James was down working on the fence so I went out to get the garbage ready for Chuck to build up. When James came up he was upset because he didn't think I put enough of the small bags into one of the large bags. He made the comment that the dump charges by the  bag and I didn't care about that. It hurt my feelings and I retreated into the house.

I prayed that I could "let it go" to avoid contention. James did apologize later.

One of my tender mercies today was during "Come Follow Me." I loved reading about how the women and children worked on the temple when the men went to march in Zion's Camp. 

James and I left for town around 3:30. I drove and made it to Empire Cat right at 4 when it closes. No cars were in the parking lot and I reminded James that it was Labor day. 

Our next stop was Goodwill. James insists that I fill out the donation slip as he says it will help with out taxes. 

I have been sending texts to Joshua through Paul. I asked him to answer today's question and I got no response. Is that the way of this generation. They just ignore you if they don't want to answer?

I bought a frame for the duck that Addy drew for me.

Addy didn't respond to doing baptisms for the dead. I guess she is pretty stressed about school. I told Sheri maybe we should wait until fall break. 

I also bought the ingredients I needed to make a carrot cake for Cress Miller's birthday on Wednesday. I also bought what I needed for homemade chicken noodle soup to take to Kate Hahn. I also bought more Nutella for hazelnut bars. James got antifreeze and picked up our prescriptions. 

On the way home we could see dark clouds in the direction of our house but it hadn't rained at our house, the rain was just beyond us.

This evening I blogged for August 16th, finished my puzzle, and finished walking my 10,000 steps. I also paid bills, James's credit card, Rocket mortgage, Dishnetwork, and Navopache electric.

And ye shall not suffer any unclean thing to come in unto it; and my glory shall be there, and my presence shall be there.
