General Conference
Sharing the Restored Gospel
Elder Dallin H. Oaks
"As Elder Ballard has taught, 'A most significant evidence of our conversion and of how we feel about the gospel in our own lives is our willingness to share it with others.'"
I had lunch with my friend Pam today at The House. We both had chili. We talked for quite awhile after we were finished eating. Pan and her husband were active members of our ward but something happened and now they don't come anymore. She told me a little bit of what happened and I am so very sorry. I wanted to say: "Don't let someone else keep you from your eternal salvation."
I invited Pam and Rick to watch conference with us. She needed to know that no one else would be there and I assured her that they wouldn't.
I went to Walmart to pickup my Methotrexate and to get an ice cream cone at McDonald's. James had to call and have the prescription transferred from Chandler. For some reason Dr. Caldron's office keeps sending it down there.
Peralta Trail in the Superstition Mountains
James is pretty much my hero. In the past six months he has caught about 40 mice in our garage. Since he has been setting traps out there we haven't had any mice in our house.
I worked on my blog a couple of hours this afternoon and James loaded up his tractor on the trailer in preparation for going to the valley tomorrow.
Buckelieu Springs
I missed going to the Relief Society activity this evening. Kathy Crane brought by the most wonderful banana cream dessert afterwards. It was delicious but I am sure very caloric. James went to the door in his pajamas because he looks better in his than I do in mine. We were watching the Hallmark movie, "Call to Duty." When James opened the door to let Kathy in, we began to realize how terrible today's prescribed burn was. The house filled with a smoky smell. Later when he went outside for something he came right back in because the smoke was so bad. It should be against the law to put people's health in danger. Around here the slogan seems to be: "Save the Trees, Kill the People."
While Sheri was running up here, these two
were running in the valley.
