The kitten began cry. I shut my bedroom door.
We put some cat food and water by the front door. The kitten ate some while we were asleep.
These are some of the flowers that we bought yesterday.
I write all most every day of what goes on in our home in the garden and in the nursery. We are ordinance workers at the Manti Temple on the Tuesday morning shift and the Saturday evening shift. In addition there are several trips to Utah county a couple of times a month and a few short trips to other mountain west areas. Our family is most important to us. All of our children live in Utah except one who lives in Kentucky.
The kitten began cry. I shut my bedroom door.
It was nearly eight when we left Holden. Before we left, we searched all over the house for a kitten. It has been in the house for several days. We see quite often but it runs to several locations and hides behind the TV stand or behind the piano or other furniture. We had a good experience at the temple. We then stopped at Walmart and bought some flowering plants. We stopped in Nephi and bought some ice cream cones. We then drove home. I put the plants on the cart and watered them; I then watered the baskets and plants on the front porch. I then put on my work clothes. We searched every room in the house for that kitten. I ate the rest of the casserole that Lisa brought.
My bedroom clock was wrong. The power went off yesterday for an hour or so.
Larry and Leslie stopped by the other day and visited us. It was Saturday when Lisa and Emy came. We got this selfie. Lisa brought a lot of food. Emy and Lisa prepared it. It has been a long time since we have seen Emy.

I tried the new sprinkler and then found an old one.
Here I am running water down the rows. Peaches and cream are planted in these rows. It is growing pretty good. I put fertilizer on it a couple of days ago.After breakfast this morning we left Holden and drove to the Payson temple. The person at the recommend desk recognized me. I didn't recognize him.

Carol wasn't there. The car was still in the garage. I found her in the garden weeding. I planted more Topaz melons. I then started weeding the onions.
The row on the right is where I weeded the onions. I was on my hands and knees while doing this. It was really muddy because I watered it last night.
