Goals:
1. Get rid of unnecessary things in my life.
2. Through fasting and prayer cultivate the gift of personal revelation.
Quote:
"Do we see our weekly sacramental service as our passover, remembrance of our safety and deliverance and redemption?
"With so very much at stake, this ordinance commemorating our escape from the angel of darkness should be taken more seriously than it sometimes is."

We had a herd of 8-10 antelope in our backyard this morning. Something spooked them and they started to run. I hope that tiny one in the back can keep up.
James and I made a trip to town this morning to get tires at Discount Tire. They are honoring their guarantee that we got on the tires we bought last January. While they were putting our new tires on James and I went across the street to KFC for their lunch time buffet. It was pretty tasty. I especially liked the coleslaw and their stuffing.
On the way home I read to James from The Book Thief. I had him drive over to Bonnie Holladay's to see the fence we painted last Saturday. The name of her place is Prairie Rose. I was excited to hear that Bonnie is ready to be baptized!
When we got home we took a nap and then I got up to wash windows. Look how clean my Norwex cloths and a little water get them:
Amazing!
James came outside and found a huge trail of ants crawling up the side of the house. He made short work of them.
Sheri posted a song by a band called Jared and the Mill. They are friends of Jared Ammons. I downloaded their song "Breathe Me In."
Adam called and said he and some of his friends may be interested in renting our house and would be willing to help fix it up. I told him I would talk to grandpa. The only problem is, where would we stay?
Stacy called to talk about Sam, Alex, Caleb, and Jena on American Idol. I told her I liked Sam, who reminds me of Rick Nelson, and Jesse Meuse. She also said that Paypal offered Paul a four month job to do some training in Malaysia. Of the pay is good enough, he may go.
Our nephew Nathan Tibbetts and
a friend in the MTC.
I did some visiting teaching by myself this afternoon. I visited with Barbie Shumaker. Barbie does not come to church but she is such a good person. Not only has she rescued 46 dogs but she raised her sisters four children. I admire and respect her and value her friendship.
James worked outside on the tractor this afternoon. He loves this kind of work. It is good for the his soul.
I made chili and stirfry veggies for dinner. Afterwards we watched Castle and The Mentalist.
