Friday, March 20th, 2026: Genesis 49, No temple today worked on lesson instead finished first outline, temple now closed 2 weeks, Greg Anderson's, routing numbers, Kim & Brian arrive!

 

Jordan River, Utah
Temple #20


I read Genesis 49 where Jacob gathers his twelve sons to bless them before he dies.

We have been going to the temple on Fridays, but today I stayed home and worked on my Relief Society lesson instead. I finally finished my first outline. Now I've got to go through and pare it down. The only sad thing, now the temple will be closed for the next two weeks. 

James went to see Greg Anderson this morning about pouring a concrete slab for his neighbor who wants to put a conex container on it. He wants to know how much dirt to bring in, etc. He said he would be back in an hour. I told him not to give a specific time because if he was late I would worry and get frustrated. I told him to just say, "I will be back when I am finished." When he returned he noted he was 45 minutes later than he thought he would be because Greg Anderson likes to talk. My point exactly.

James spent time this morning on the phone with the bank trying to figure out our ABA routing number instead of the ACH routing number that appears on our checks, etc. Dave Elkins wife Wendy says she needs it in order to send the down payment for the land. She is using a domestic wire to send it and I guess her  bank needs this routing number. After a couple of calls James was finally able to talk to someone who was able to give it to him. Why is everything so complicated? Wendy is sending $24,150, which is a 10 percent down payment. It will be a few days before we actually get it. 

Kim and Brian arrived around 5:30 this evening. Kim gave me so much insight into my lesson and mentioned the book, "Believing Christ." I am so glad she will be there on Sunday.

I worked on my handouts this evening and walked. James and I both started book 3 in the Isabelle Webb series by N.C. Allen. This one is called "The Grecian Princess." I have not even had time to get passed chapter 2.

In bed by 10 with James and Tom.




This is Dave, the guy who makes the bread
that James and I love.
