'My Mother Was Right'
'Why Didn't He Heal Her?'
Tom woke me up at 4 this morning and I'm glad that he did. He's my early morning buddy. He wants his treat and then he goes outside.
I went in around 6 o'clock and put the roast I am making for the missionaries in the crockpot. It needs to cook at least 8 hours.
James and I had our devotional around 7. Afterwards I listened to Emily and Jenny on Inklings. The discussion was based on Sister Browning's talk: "Turn Your Heart to Jesus Christ: The Sacred Gift of Primary Music."
After Inklings I got ready and went to town. My main reason for going to town was to mail Ben & Cayli's anniversary card. I also bought James's Christmas gift, a heated throw. He was complaining that the old ones don't work anymore. Personally, I don't think it's that cold. Today was a beautiful day, sunny and in the 60's.
After my Walmart shopping I went through Culver's for lunch. I got James his cod fillet sandwich and I got the chicken cashew salad with Culver's vinaigrette dressing. James and I had lunch together when I got home.
James got Dr. Memon to agree to cost plus 10 percent on his medical building. James still has to get bids from all of the subcontractors to give Dr. Memon a price.
James is going to the valley tomorrow to meet with Ravi Gupta about his job. Armando met with them. James was unable to get in touch with Armando for several days. I guess Armando took his dad to Mexico to see his sister, Armando's aunt, who was sick and while they were there she passed away and they had her funeral.
The roast made the house smell so wonderful this afternoon as I was preparing the rest of the meal. I made mashed potatoes, rolls, green beans with bacon and brown sugar, and a salad with BlueBell mint chocolate chip ice cream for dessert. We also had vanilla ice cream with hot fudge sauce.
The missionaries, Elder Perkins and Elder Leonardson came for dinner around 4:45 because they have an appointment at Waypoint Addiction Center at 6:00.
Elder Perkins is from Murango, Illinois south of Chicago. Elder Leonardson is from Dillon, Montana. He said they are in the Helena, Montana temple district but the Rexburg, Idaho temple is closer.
Elder Leonardson had a saguaro cactus design on his tie. His said his Mom sent it to him. Both he and Elder Perkins are over 6 foot tall.
I ask them if they were teaching anyone in Vernon and he said Ruth Parsons. Sandra Wilhelm referred her.
"Begin today to nurture your relationship with Jesus Christ. Make a commitment to never forsake Him."

D&C 124:75
And let him lift up his voice long and loud, in the midst of the people, to plead the cause of the poor and the needy; and let him not fail, neither let his heart faint; and I will accept of his offerings, for they shall not be unto me as the offerings of Cain, for he shall be mine, saith the Lord.
