"There is a personalized plan for each of us. Like the Christmas star, each of us, if faithful, has an ordained orbit, a priesthood path, as we pass through this second estate."
-Elder Neal A. Maxwell
I am a bit overwhelmed. I have not wrapped any presents and when you figure I have two per granchild and that many or more for the kids and this spouses, that's over 50 presents. I have not done any decorating and my tree is no decorated. Also, I am teaching Young Women's tomorrow and I have a lesson to finish preparing. Maybe you are thinking, well, she watches too many Christmas movies, she needs to quit procrastinating. You could be right. But let's take this morning as an example. Instead of doing this things on my to do list, I am going to help clean the church with the Crane's. Yes, two weeks in a row.
After working almost 3 hours James and I left and he talked me into going to town with him. What's a wife to do?
Our first stop was LaCasita. It has been so long since we have been here. Our friend Charlotte seemed genuinely happy to see us and said she had missed us. We had a nice visit with her and I so enjoyed my chicken enchilada with green sauce and their refried beans and chips.
After lunch James needed to go to Home Depot to get something for the fireplace trim. He wanted to know it I wanted to do some shopping at Walmart. I just didn't feel well and did not want to shop.
At home James finished the fireplace trim on the stove insert. It looks beautiful!
I wrapped presents and worked on my lesson while watching Christmas movies.
When I went to bed I took some Naprosyn because my arm and knee hurt. I slept on the recliner in our bedroom because it is more comfortable than the bed when I am hurting.
Gas prices in the valley have dipped below $2 a gallon.
This face makes me so happy!!
Christmas greetings from the Lemmerman's!
