Outdoor Lights

After breakfast we watched channel seven programs. I went to the post office and got the mail.  It was lightly raining. Lunch was pork and beans. I then got the Christmas lights out. There was a string of lights in the shed.  I laid them on the front lawn.  I found the strings of lights in the garage; I put one string on the shrubs west of the posts and the other sting on the east post.  I put a long string on the shrub in the kidney.  It was getting cold, so I quit and went into the house.

You can't see the lights on the shrubs.

You can't see the lights the kidney.

Friday

Carol had beans soaking all night and this morning she started cooking this morning.  she added pieces of ham.  We had them for lunch.  The were very good.  We drove to Fillmore for gas and groceries.  This afternoon I did some watering in greenhouse five.   I had funeral potatoes and fried leaks; they tasted pretty good.

Back to the Mount Timpanogos Temple

 It was about seven when we left Holden this morning, Traffic went smoothly most of the way. Most of the traffic lights turned green as we approached them. We picked Nyleen and made our way to the temple.  We missed the turn to the east.  We turned around and got on the right road.  Carol was driving and stopped near the temple door. I parked the car.  We had a good session.  Nyleen had a sack lunch for us, On the way home we stopped at the Payson Walmart.  Carol bought some presents for some of our grand kids.  We ate the lunch on the way home.  When we got home, I mowed the lawns. The grass was not tall enough to mow but I mowed up the leaves.    

            This is how the lawn looks after I finished the mowing.

The front tires on the lawn mower were flat.  I carried the compressor that was in the garage out to the shed and pumped up the front tires, The belt that run the blade had come off.  I was able to get it on.  The belt that drives the wheels forward or backward slipped so it was difficult drive.  However, J was able to mow up the leaves.

  

I filled the bags three or four times and dumped them on the south garden. 

Clinic

 

A different morning.  I got up showered and dressed.  I opened the front door.  There was a dusting of snow on the sidewalk.  After breakfast we watched some of the morning TV shows.  I say some because I kept falling asleep.  I had to go to the Fillmore hospital for some blood tests.  We then went to the Fillmore market for some groceries.  Carol made some egg salad sandwiches for lunch.  

I was standing on the back porch looking south when I took this picture. 

I was standing on the front porch when I took the picture.  Both pictures show just a dusting of snow.

Easy Tuesday

 After breakfast we watched the morning TV shows, Later I took the household garbage to the dumpster.  The town is putting the Christmas lights on the power poles.  This afternoon we had warm-ups for lunch.  I had mashed potatoes and some of the Sunday roast.  This afternoon, I did the watering in greenhouse five,  

After supper I took almost everything in my bathroom closet.  I was looking for candles that are operated with a battery.

 

Cat House

The coldest morning.  We have a whipped cream container on the back porch full of water for the cats.  It was frozen this morning.  After breakfast and a couple of TV shows, we drove to Fillmore for groceries and medication.  We then came home for lunch. After I began to build a cat house.  I found a couple of one inch plywood.  I began to cut it the right sizes and then put it together and ended with a cat house. It is setting against the garage wall.  picture tomorrow.

Sunday

 Richard was still in bed when I got up this morning.  I put the roast in the crock pot. I then showered and got dressed.  I turned on the radio and listened to the Sunday morning music.  Richard then got up.  Carol wanted some potatoes.  I got some that were in the garage, I washed them and Carol wrapped them with foil and put them in the oven. We then had breakfast.  A little later Carol took me to choir practice.  The sacrament meeting speakers we good.  We didn't have any classes because it was the 5th Sunday.  topic was sharing the gospel. After a good dinner Carol had Richard put the last of the decoration on the Christmas tree, Richard then left,  

Calico showed on the back porch and began to eat cat food that was already there.

This morning before church it snowed just wet the front sidewalk.  Richard left.
