DC 20:26
Not only those who believed after he came in the meridian of time, in the flesh, but all those from the beginning, even as many as were before he came, who believed in the words of the holy prophets, who spake as they were inspired by the gift of the Holy Ghost, who truly testified of him in all things, should have eternal life,

Old Testament

1 Ahaziah turns to Baalzebub to learn if he will live - Elijah prophesies Ahaziah's death - Elijah calls down fire from heaven to consume the soldiers sent to apprehend him.
2 Elisha and the prophets know that Elijah is to be translated - Elijah divides the waters of the Jordan and is taken up into heaven in a whirlwind - The mantle of Eijah falls on Elisha, who also divides the waters of the Jordan - Elisha heals the waters of Jericho - Youths are torn by bears for mocking Elisha.

The 377 fire between Heber and Holbrook is 50% contained. That is good news. Two volcanoes have erupted recently, in Hawaii, and Guatemala. The one in Hawaii has erupted more than once.
I got up at 4 this morning and walked 1,000 steps. By 7 am I was not able to bend my knee. Later while I was working on my blog the pain became unbearable. I laid down on the bed and could not get comfortable so I went in on the recliner, took some aspirin, and watched part of a movie and felt a little better.
James spent the day trying to fix his small Cat. He had to go into town to order a part.
He fixed me a green smoothie for dinner and emptied the trash, even though it's my job.
We were going to go to the temple for the 4:30 session but I was unable to go.
I decided to sleep on the recliner this evening. Before going to bed I watched a Hallmark movie starring Meghan Markle. I am still pretty miserable.
Jared asked me how I liked the name Eleanor Grace for the baby. He said that Kacey has already been calling her Ellie. I said I liked it fine. I asked him about Eleanor Mae and he said he didn't want Ellie Mae because of "The Beverly Hillbillies." I understand, but I still like it.
I called and invited Nita Moore to go with me to the Relief Society luncheon at Licano's on Sunday.
Happy 49th Anniversary!

Notice that this is yesterday's date. I probably won't
be getting very many steps in the next few days so
I won't even bother posting them.
Does anyone remember the "silver french fry"
that Chandler had displayed for several years.
