Between 2-3 a.m. I could not sleep so I put my Airpods in and listened to some of the new hymns while relaxing on my cozy bedroom recliner. Here are a couple of verses from "Behold the Wounds in Jesus' Hands."
(First part of verse 3 & verse 4)
3. Behold the wounds in Jesus' hands.
Look to your Lord and live.
He yearns to bless you with His love
And all your sins forgive.
4. Behold His wounded hands and feet!
Come touch, and see, and feel
the wounds and marks that you may know
His love for you is real.
Then as you fall to worship Him
and wash His feet with tears
Your Savior takes you in His arms
and quiets all your fears.
Benson is on my lock screen. His face is the first one I see in the morning, and I marvel at the miracle that he is. Seven long years Palmer & Autumn waited. Benson has already brought so much joy into so many lives. I wonder how many more lives he will bless.
Such a sweet and special gift!
A UPS cargo plane crashed and exploded while taking off from Muhammed Ali International Airport in Louisville, Kentucky. Seven people are dead, 11 injured and fatalities are expected to increase.
The rascally raccoon still got in to the horse feed in spite of whatever James did to stop him. Did you know raccoons are related to honey badgers and honey badgers are expert at dealing with locks, doors, etc.
I made pork chops for lunch. They were quite tasty. We also had also had cabbage, bacon, sunflower salad with sweet onion dressing, which is one of my favorites. I did the dishes and took a break while watching part of "Christmas Waltz" starring Lacey Chabert & Will Kemp.
James went Christmas shopping with me this afternoon. I started out at TJ Maxx while James went to get some oats for the horses at Cal Ranch.
I got a paper cut from one of the tags on a comforter I put in my cart. My finger squirted out blood everywhere and I have nothing to clean it up with. I call James and he brings me Kleenex and dried out wipes from the car, I know we have wet ones and that's what I need. I clean up my hand the best I can but there is dried blood on the floor. (As I am writing this I wonder why I didn't check to see if they had a ladies room where I could have washed up.)
When I get up to the register there are two girls working behind the counter. I tell them how I cut my finger and that there is blood on the floor back by the wrapping paper. They are very nice about it and one of them gets me a bandaid. When I get to the car I clean my hand with a wet wipe and then put the bandaid on.
Here is what I bought in TJ Maxx: a blanket for Benson and one for Mason, a Christmas puzzle, 3 rolls of wrapping paper, and some tags.
Our next excursion was at Penney's. James and I actually shopped together. We bought 4 full blankets that were on sale. The cashier said I saved more than I spent. Nice.
I went to Dollar Tree and Ross while James went to Tractor Supply and Home Depot. I got two more blankets at Ross and a pink sweater to wear to "Wicked for Good."
I bought a flashing light and some batteries for James to put outside to scare the raccoon away. Kerri has some flashing lights in her RV to scare away the vermin. James was excited to put it out by the barn.
As we drive home we see the biggest moon of the year come up. The biggest because it is the closest. I can show you my little phone photos but I'm also going to post some I saw on Facebook.
Sheri said she couldn't come for Thanksgiving because Max has to work until 4:00 on Thanksgiving. We were both sad but I totally understand.
Tom is inside and we all three were in bed by 8:30.
"The Creation, the Fall, the Savior's atoning sacrifice, and our
ability to enter again into our Heavenly Father's presence ... are manifestations of mercy."
- James R. Rasband, AGC 2025
D&C 128:12
Herein is glory and honor, and immortality and eternal life - The ordinance of baptism by water, to be immersed therein in order to answer to the likeness of the dead, that one principle might accord with the other; to be immersed in the water and come forth out of the water is in the likeness of the resurrection of the dead in coming forth out of their graves; hence this ordinance was instituted to form a relationship with the ordinance of baptism for the dead, being in likeness of the dead.

Cute, sweet Benson
