I took some great sunrise pictures this morning.

Clouds over Mt. Vernon

Let the day begin!

When I get up early in the morning to study I always open the dining room window and wait for the sun to come up.  On days when there are clouds I am not disappointed!

The Encourage Foundation called this morning.  They are sending my Enbrel on Thursday to Chandler, free of charge!  They will only do this for three months and then they will re-evaluate my statis.

It was a windy day outside.  James had a hard time riding the Razr back from the post office.  I took boxes downstairs and unloaded some books today.  I made three blog entries which took a long time because I had to download so many pictures.

We did not hear from Jason today, the neighbor who was interest in buying our house.  James says he will call him tomorrow.

Today for scripture study James and I read Mosiah 5-7.  I read Alma 51-52 for my personal study.  We also read Elder Funk's conference address, "Called Of Him to Declare His Word."  I like this quote: 

" As you live a virtuous life, you will feel a peaceful confidence in your standing before God, and you will have the power of the Spirit to be with you."

James watched part of Dancing with The Stars with me.  We loved the "Foxing Awesome group dance with Derk and Amber, Karina and Corbin, Brant and Pets, and Jack and Cheryl done to the song "What Does the Fox Say?"

Tonight's sunset and a tree I copied from Facebook

I love these Vernon skies!

I have a thing for trees with bare branches.

As is his custom, James left for the valley early this morning.  I woke up with the chills and really not feeling very well.  I wrote on my blog, read from the Book of Mormon, and laid back down for a nap.  After Sheri got back from her run and took a shower she wanted to go into town.  I managed to get dressed and go with her but not before taking some cold medicine. 
We did our shopping at Walmart and then stopped at Circle K for drinks and Little Cesars for pizza.  I felt pretty good until my cold medicine started to wear off. 
Kim and Joe arrived in the late afternoon, early evening.  Kim missed watching Hallmark movies with Sheri and I.  We watched "Tom, Dick, and Harriet", and "Perfect Partners."  This evening  Kim and Sheri did watch the debut of season 16 of "Dancing With the Stars" with me.  Sheri wanted to see Sean Lowe from the Bachelor.  I went outside and made a fire but no one was interested so I let it go out.  The boys are mainly interested in playing video games, except for Joe and Evan.  We all watched Castle.  Afterwards I felt bad we didn't have FHE so I prepared a lesson for the boys.  I'm not sure when I will have a chance to give it.

James left this morning early for the valley.  He is going down to finish painting his mom's house.  I am feeling a little better today.  I took all of the boxes that I brought back from Chandler downstairs and unloaded them in the storage room. 

I got a call from Linda Price this morning checking on me to see how I am doing.  Linda also gave me Alicia Hunsaker's roll recipe.  I learned that Alicia's nickname is "CC." 

I stayed inside all day.  I took a psych test online for Jeffrey Maxwell for one of his classes.  I am ashamed to say that I didn't finish.  Hope he can still use the data.

I worked in the kitchen and this evening I watched "Dancing with the Stars."  The finalists are: Kelly Monacco, Shawn Johnson, and Melissa Rycroft.  I am cheering for Melissa because she is partners with Tony Devalono who has been on the show 14 seasons and has never won.

I also watched "The Mentalist" and "Castle."
