Happy Pi Day!

I got off to a slow start this morning because I wasn't feeling well.  I sat down to rest and ended up watching a movie called "Second Chances" about a wounded fireman and his landlord who fall in love.

James and I went to Show Low a little after noon.  Our first stop was Licano's where I had a tamale and a taco.  I want to eat well today because I am starting a diet tomorrow.  James wants to go to our class reunion in July and I have got to lose some weight if I am going to go.

After lunch James dropped me off at Walmart to do a little shopping.  I bought two 5-day boxes of Nutrisystem diet food.  I thought James might use one, but he turned his nose up at it and said he would "fend for himself."  I am grateful that he doesn't expect me to cook while I am dieting.

We also went to CVS to pick up a couple of prescriptions for James and then on to Sonic to get my large diet Coke with regular cherry flavoring.  I won't be getting one of these for awhile either.  

On the way home we read the first short story in our new book by Sarah Eden.
 The story we are reading is called
"A Friend Indeed."
Before going home we stopped at the Wilhelm's to take Johnny a birthday present.  He is four years old.  While James was getting his gift out of the back of the car, Johnny came over to my window to tell me his dad got him a handsaw for his birthday.  He seemed quite happy.  An interesting gift for a 4 year old.

This evening for FHE we listened to Elder Oaks's talk on the Atonement.  It was wonderful.  Afterwards we watched the movie "Smooch" which is a modern day take on the movie the Frog Prince.  We both really enjoyed it.
 I would like for my granddaughters to see this one.
