Monday, February 16th, 2026: President's Day, huge storm coming, cleaning and preparing for company, "home fires burning", addendum to our trust, Nuzzle pillow

 

Today is President's Day, a federal holiday, which means no mail and no deed from Molly Quintana. If we get the deed tomorrow we may just sign it and take it to Deming and pick up our check. 

There is a huge storm coming in from California. Some places in northern California, around Lake Tahoe could get up to 8 feet of snow. We will probably have snow here by tomorrow. Sheri and Ian are coming up on Wednesday so I hope they keep the roads cleared.

I did some cleaning and preparing for company today. I cleaned out the refrigerator, put sheets on the bed in Kim & Brian's room and in Sheri & Ian's room upstairs and made sure the bathrooms in both rooms were clean. 

James has been "keeping the home fires burning" and I appreciate it because it was cold and windy today. 

James texted Cathi today to ask her about adding things to our trust. We want to know if there is a certain procedure or legal jargon we need to use or if we can just list what we want to add. Cathi, who used to be a paralegal, says we just need to list what we want to add, each of us sign it, and have it notarized. Thank you Cathi!

James's new Nuzzle pillow was delivered on our front doorstep today, I am excited for him to try it to see if it helps with his neck and shoulders.

Abraham 1:2

And, finding there was greater happiness and peace and rest for me, I sought for the blessings of the fathers, and the right whereunto I should be ordained to administer the same; having been myself a follower of righteousness, desiring also to be one who possessed great knowledge, and to be a greater follower of righteousness, and to possess a greater knowledge, and to be a father of many nations, a prince of peace, and desiring to receive instructions, and to keep the commandments of God, I became a rightful heir, a High Priest, holding the right belonging to the fathers.
