Thomsy gets me up at 4:30. I fed him and got myself some Perk.
James discovered, when he went out to feed the horses, that Apollo was in the yard, eating the grass. James said the barbed wire was down and he needed to replace it.
We left for the temple at 8:30 this morning. I ran off family names: Beulah Fontella Montgomery and James Henry Lewis.
We arrive at the temple a little early, but since James couldn't find his recommend, it's a good thing. One of the sisters had to take his name upstairs and probably get his membership number and soon he was able to get passed the gatekeeper. His recommend had been in his shirt pocket and when he bent over to get our temple bags out of the back seat, it fell out on the ground. We found it when we returned to our car.
There were 8 brothers and 7 sisters in our session. It is rare that there are more brothers than sisters but that was the case today. I got to sit in my favorite chair, second row, last chair, against the wall. James and I participated in the prayer circle. Our friend, Brother Coltrin, also participated.
After our session, I was in locker 8, 2rder of refried beans. This time lunch was under $30, $29.06. On to Walmart.
James paid for the three items we failed to pay for last week which came to a total of $27.58. I bought a few items and ended up spending over $50. The spending never stops!
When I got home I started some Rhodes rolls, 2 dozen for tomorrow's funeral. James and I both walked and listened to our books, my book is "Catherine's Intrigue". I painted a few wooden hearts which are part of my RS handouts.
Texts between Trina and I regarding the temple dress I gave her. She tried it on and likes it. I'm not sure if she will use it.
Tom went out for the night.
