When we used to go to
El Cupido after the temple and
before we discovered Eva's.
Tom got me up at 4:30. If he would only wait until 5.
When James got up a couple of hours later I asked him what we were going to do with the black cat who is always at our door. Do we feed him or get rid of him. We had a discussion and this is what we came up with: Feed him until we can ask Kim & Brian if they would like him, he is quite friendly, much more so than Sammy, and put his picture up at the post office to see if he belongs to someone.
During my personal study this morning I learned something about the creation. This is because of the commentary I am reading by Brother Tom Valletta. The first time light is created it is the light of Christ which dispels all darkness. (p. 8 of The Old Testament Study Guide).
Bert sent us a list of documents, etc., he needs to begin the reverse mortgage process. There are over 12 items to gather and upload onto the computer to send to Bert, some of them 8 pages long (Two months worth of bank statements for both accounts). Neither James nor I have a copy of our social security cards, although we do know our numbers. James called Bert to ask him how important it was to have the actual card and Bert said it was necessary, essential. Bert asked James how many years of income he would like and James said 10-15. Bert said I think you should go for 20. (I am not living 20 more years, at least I hope not!).
James & I were both a little stressed and I had a bit of anxiety and was not in the proper frame of mind for the temple this afternoon. The problem with an afternoon appointment is that you have all morning to talk yourself out of it, which I did. I am not proud of it, but honestly, I was not in the mood to go I am sorry to say. I ask James if he wanted to go next Friday in the morning and reminded him that it was his birthday. He said yes, so I made two appointments for the 10:00 session.
We are out of propane and James placed an order with Owen's yesterday. Luckily they deliver on Friday's to Vernon and they were not busy so they delivered this afternoon. We took over 700 gallons costing us right at $2,000.
I ate a Wurthers caramel I picked up at Kim's the other day and part of it seemed to be a little hard. A part of one of my teeth on the right lower side has chipped off. Not again! I'm going to ignore it for awhile before calling Pierce.
Since Kim gave James a plate filled with Nutella bars for his birthday, I have had one a day. To make up for it I had three protein shakes and did some walking.
Tom and Sammy do not like Blackie. Blackie was eating this evening and Tom was under the outside couch and keep reaching out and slapping Blackie in the face. (I've thought of other names for this cat but I keep coming back to Blackie, so unoriginal).
I did some work on my lesson today but I get easily distraction. Distraction and contention are two of Satan's greatest tools and I want to eliminate them from my life.
I noticed that the Bishop & Susan's well rigg was shut down today. I hope that is good news and they have reached water!
