This picture is from two years ago.
When it came up on my Facebook feed under memories,
I had to post it. I love these people so much!
Alma 36: 25-37:10
25 - The Lord doth give me exceedingly great joy in the fruit of my labors. . . .
26 - Because of the word imparted unto me many have been born of God.
27 - I have been supported in trials and troubles of every kind. God has delivered me from prison, from bonds and from death. (This is Alma speaking.) I trust in Him and He will deliver me still.
28 - He will raise me up at the last day, to dwell with Him in glory. I will praise Him forever, . . .
30 - . . . inasmuch as ye shall keep the commandments of God ye shall prosper in the land. If ye will not keep the commandments ye shall be cut off from His presence.
Alma 37
1 - Alma speaking to his son Helaman:
Take the records which have been entrusted with me.
2 - Also, keep a record of this people.
3 - Also hand down the plates of brass to the next generation, that they may go to every nation, kindred, tongue and people.
6 - . . . by small and simple things are great things brought to pass.
(One of my favorites).
7 - . . . by very small means the Lord doth confound the wise and bringeth about the salvation of many souls.
8 - The brass plates have enlarged the memory of this people and convinced many of the errors of their ways and brought them to the knowledge of their God unto the salvation of their souls.
9 - These records brought the Lamanites unto repentance, to rejoice in Jesus Christ, their Redeemer.
10 - Perhaps they will be the means of bringing many thousands more to the knowledge of their Redeemer.

I had lunch at Panda today. Half steamed rice, half veggies, and shrimp with veggies. Delicious! I also went to Staples and bought some filing supplies to take to Charlotte's. I helped her from 12-2 and then went home to take a nap. I think once we get all her paperwork which is sitting out everywhere filed away we can start working on the rest of the house. It is going to take awhile but will be worth it if she can keep it organized.
Adam helped James today at Lindsay Smith's.
Bandana because he was sweating so much.
Cathi's housekeepers came today so both dogs stuck with me.

I went with James to take Adam home after work. On the way home we stopped at Bahama Bucks and I had a strawberry colada bahama rahma. (With ice cream.) James liked it so well he ate it while I read to him from "Washington's Hypothesis."
On the way back to Chandler we stopped at Charlotte's. She has three credit cards that her son ran up charges on and refuses to pay and she is trying to pay for them on her retirement. Every month she goes further into the hole. James took down all her information and is going to call the credit card companies and see if he can get her reduced rates. We had a group hug before we left and I think Charlotte feels like she has friends and that we really care about her, which we do.
We went back to Cathi's and packed up to go home. We got gas at Sam's Club and stopped at the Subway nearby and got some dinner. I had a veggie sub on whole wheat and really liked it. No chips or drink.
We went the Payson way. I read to James and slept. We were home around 11:30 and in bed by midnight. Home sweet Home!
