Happy Birthday to this handsome
17 year old!
Alex
I just heard the news this morning that my good friend Jacque Hatch passed away last night. Jacque was a counselor to me while I served as the stake Relief Society President and I learned so much from her. She has been sick for quite sometime and her passing is probably a relief to her and to her family. She will be sorely missed though.

I have felt pretty lousy all week. For lunch I wanted some hot and sour soup so we ended up ordering some Chinese food from a place called Hot Wok. I got a teriyaki chicken salad and hot and sour soup and James ordered something called: Five Stars Over the Moon which included, veggies, beef, pork, scallops, shrimp, and chicken. He loved it! The soup I got was good but we still haven't found any as good as what we used to get at Lin's.
I did errands this afternoon. I went to Deseret Book and got the sequel to "Becoming Lady Lockwood." It's called, "Lady Emma's Campaign."
The girl at Deseret Book said she had read it and
really liked it.
I also went to the bank and got 10 five dollar bills for Alex's birthday. I stuffed them into a glass light bulb container and wrote on an attached tag: "Your future is as bright as you faith." - President Monson. My attempt at being a little creative.
I also had to go to Walmart to get ingredients to make a salad for tonight's Relief Society meeting. When I got home I quickly made the salad and then James and I took Alex to Red Lobster for his birthday. It was nice to get to spend some alone time with him. He wanted to be back by 6:15 because he was going somewhere with Seth. We got him back just in time and just in time for us to drop my salad off at the church. James took it in for me and while he was inside Bishop Lewis asked him if he wanted to take home a couple of prime rib and he declined! I should have sent him back inside.
The program tonight for RS was "Women at the Well."
My friend Christy and her daughter Megan.
Another night of aches and pains.
