Saturday, May 18th
We just stayed home and worked around the house today. Last week was so hectic that I had a lot of laundry that had to be done this morning and we did all of the weekly cleaning. Alan washed the truck so it will be in good shape for next week. We will probably be going out to see projects and will need to drive Steve Stebbings around, so he wanted it to look good.
We were so sad to learn of Sister Monson’s passing today. What a wonderful woman she was and what a great example of what a wife and mother should be. We will miss her and our hearts go out to President Monson and his family today. Even the Prophet can have a broken heart and we know this will be very difficult for him. We are praying for him and for his family, along with millions of others. We know that out pouring of love will be a comfort to them.
We went out for Chinese food tonight. Elder Bean had a craving for Chinese so they invited us and the Johnsons to go with them. We went to a nice place called the “Precious Stone”. The Beans have eaten there before and liked it so we decided to try it again. We sat at a large round table and there was a big Lazy Susan in the middle. Since it was so convenient, we decided to all order something different and share. We had wanton soup, spring rolls, Chinese vegetables, pork with mushroom sauce, beef with vegetables, sweet and sour chicken and beef with rice. Every one of them was good. We had a great time and went home stuffed!~
