When it snows, Sammy goes in to his
cozy little house.
We got around 4-5 inches of snow, according to what is accumulated on our patio table.
I was up at 5 for my personal prayers and scripture study. I am using the SEEK book I bought at Deseret Book to write my answers to Old Testament questions in.
Before going to clean the Vernon chapel, James and I had our scripture study together from the Book of Mormon and "Come Follow Me" along with family prayer.
James cleaned the chapel. He even took a lint roller and went over all of the benches. I helped him after emptying all of the trashes and making sure all of the carpets were clean. We worked a little over an hour and then left to go to town.
James went to the UPS store to return the kitchen lights that he didn't like. We already ordered new ones. I went to Walmart and bought a budget ledger and some strawberry jam, my favorite.
I suggested we go to LaCasita for lunch since we hadn't been for awhile. We had our usual. I had the chicken enchilada with red sauce and James had a chicken enchilada with green sauce and a side of refried beans. He said to me: "Thanks for suggesting we come here."
James dropped me off at Dollar Tree to get some items I saw the other day that I want. I also got wooden hearts to use for my February RS handouts. I am ahead of the game, at least for right now. He went down to China Buffet and picked up some hot & sour soup. My favorite.
We are listening to "Follow Him" with Dr. Phillip Allred. He is really good.
I bought some beef jerky at Dollar Tree and on the way home I tried to open it, using my two front teeth, which are veneers. I can't even tell you how shocked I was when they both fell out. I almost cried and I think I did cry when I looked in the mirror.
I called Susan Goodman, Pierce's wife and my ministering sister. I told her what happened and how stupid I felt. She said they had just returned from the temple and I should come on over. I told her we were about 20 minutes away. I actually had to take James home because he was supposed to do something for Applegate's and I took the car back to the Goodman's dental office.
After grinding to get the old glue off, Pierce replaced my two veneers with Susan's help. I called them the "Awesome Twosome."
Pierce & Susan try to go to the temple once a week. Pierce says he just can't help smiling when he is at the temple.
As I was driving home I noticed how much more snow we have here than they had in Show Low. Part of the sky is cloudy and part of it the sun is shining, which is quite typical here.
One of the nose guards fell off my glasses. I texted Sheri this picture and asked her if she could fix it. She said, no.
and that I was overdue for an eye exam. She scheduled one
for me next week on the 15th with Dr. Vanover.
I walked 12,000 steps, and blogged December 29th. I loved the hot & sour soup and I wish we had gotten more.
Bert Carpenter from Nexa Lending emailed us some information on reverse mortgages. After reading the guidebook James said: "This just might work."
Amazon made a delivery while it was snowing, the rest of my 2026 notebooks. I love that they deliver out here!
