Tom and I are up at 3:30. He's my early morning buddy. These early morning hours are my favorite time of day. In quiet reflection I review the previous day and plan for the day I am now looking forward to. Prayers, Book of Mormon, Doctrine & Covenants with my commentary, "Come Follow Me", gospel study, lesson preparation, and Inklings. Devotional with James and then two hours of blogging, with distractions of course. Next is cleaning, lunch, rest, to do and then working on weekly goals, dinner, shower, choice and bed. Somewhere I get in my 12,000 steps.
James is sad he didn't get the Memon job. He said he could have kept Armando busy for a year and we could have made $200,000. I told him I was sorry but I was sure the Lord has something better in store for him.
James came in this afternoon with his face dirty and smelling like a mechanic and he asked me if I wanted to go to town with him. I told him I had to spend the afternoon cleaning upstairs. Michael and his friends are coming tonight.
I told James he ought to let me give him a haircut, he should shower and change his clothes before going to town. He agreed. I gave him one of my better haircuts and he looked great before he left. I guess he got a flat tire on the wheel barrow or yard cart. He was gong about three hours or so. I am glad I didn't go.
I finished upstairs right after James got back. With all the plodding up and downstairs I was able to get my 12,000 steps. I showered and sat down at my computer to finish blogging October 28th. I had to download a picture of a raccoon which took awhile. I had a Christmas movie playing on the T.V. It's a G.A.F. movie so I couldn't watch it on my phone. It's one from last year, "Christmas at the Royal Ballet." It was quite good, but most of the Great American Family movies are a little "flat" or slow.
James is walking and listening to "A Waltz with Traitors." I quit reading it because it was just too depressing. I started reading, "Snow Drops and Winter Berry" by Sarah M. Eden. It's a "gents" book about Adam Kielder as a young child and the influence the Jonquil family had on him after his father died when he was 7.
James and I went to bed around 8:30-9. Michael and his friends arrived around 9:30. We will meet them in the morning.
"True worship means loving God and yielding our will to Him - the most precious gift we can offer."

D&C 128:20
And again, what do we hear? Glad tidings from Cumorah! Moroni, an angel from heaven, declaring the fulfilment of the prophets - the book to be revealed. A voice of the Lord in the wilderness of Fayette, Seneca county, declaring the three witnesses to bear record of the book! The voice of Michael on the banks of the Susquehanna, detecting the devil when he appeared as an angel of light! The voice of Peter, James, and John in the wilderness between Harmony, Susquehanna County, and Colesville, Broome County, on the Susquehanna river, declaring themselves as possessing the keys of the kingdom, and of the dispensation of the fulness of times!
