Today we started out the day by going to Erick and Heather's and helping to load the last minute things they needed to get on the truck for moving to Logan. Then we drove to Logan and helped them unload it at their apartment. Most of Heather's family was there to help. Kyle came and helped also. It only took about an hour to unload the U-Haul and then Heather's mom, Wendy, bought pizza for everyone. It was good but it was 12 points so it was a little more than we needed for lunch. Then we drove home with Kyle.
When we got home Larry went down the hill to our neighbors and got some of their apples that blew off of their tree again. They are really good apples. He got a couple of bowls full of apples.
I was tired so I set my alarm for an hour and took a nap.
When I got up I began to look for my wedding pictures from my first marriage because we were going to a wedding reception of the daughter of one of my cousins that was a flower girl for my reception and I thought it would be good to give her a copy. I spent about 2 hours looking for the pictures. I finally found it in a file drawer in the old files I have. But, I was so excited because I have been looking for about 3 years for a photo album that had pictures of me growing up and pictures of John growing up. It also had the certificate for my first marriage. I had in my mind that Nathan had asked me if he could take it and then taken it so I have asked him about it several times. He always said that he did not remember having it. But there it was in this drawer with my Treasures of Truth book from Young Women's and several other things. I was so excited. I must of thought that something else was in that drawer because I don't think that I had looked in there in all this time.
Larry has been needing to get Word 2010 on his computer because his trial copy expired. I thought that I had purchased a copy for him when I purchased mine. But I did not know where the information on it was so I spent the next hour looking for the key to my copy. It took me about an hour but I finally found online where the receipt was so I found it but then I learned that I had only purchased one copy so Larry downloaded a trial copy for a month and then he can decide what to do then.
By this time I was late for a party that Kirsten was having for "It Works" Body wraps. So, I had to hurry and eat and go to the party. She had as many people for that as I had for my Usborne book party. I tried a wrap and so did Kirsten. They are supposed to help you lose weight by putting this serum into your system to break up fat. It is tempting to get more but they are from $60-100 for a package of 4. That just does not fit into my budget right now.
The bright side of the party was I got to see Kirsten's old friend from Elementary and Middle School, Julia Jensen who is now a McAllister. She is the one that is selling the wraps and she came all the way from Vernal to do the party! It was fun to see her again.
Then at about 7:00 p.m. Larry and I drove to Fairview for the Wedding I mentioned in one of the first paragraphs. Tawni Sorenson, Aunt Marva's daughter Charla's child was the girl getting married. Charla died several years ago when their car was hit by a train. Tawni was raised by Charla's sister LuIda.
While I was there Aunt Marva was telling us that Mom had found a thing about being able to trace lost prisoners of war with DNA and they had got kits and Uncle Joe and Uncle Terry and her had taken DNA tests and they are waiting to find out if they can match it with someone that would have been their brother Don that was lost in WWII when he was shot down over Thailand. She was so excited and said that she felt like my dad had got to the other side and they were all working to solve this problem from over there and maybe now they would know what happened to Don.
I got home and Larry and I did prayer and scripture and then he went to sleep and I stayed up for a little longer to walk and finish up my active link and write this for today. It helped to walk as I got 4 activity points today.
Nathan texted me today and said that he was feeling down. When I asked him why he said that he wished that he could work on the weekends. I assume he means that he wants to do his therapies on the weekends. I suggested that he find something he could do on the weekends to keep his mind busy. He said that sounded good. He wanted suggestions. If you have any suggestions please comment and I will send them to Nathan or you could send them to him yourself. Larry suggested that he start writing down what he is going through to recover from the stroke. I suggested maybe he could study something new that he could learn about on Saturdays and Sundays. He said that he got to play bocci ball on Friday and that he was able to walk some more in Therapy. He said that it was cool to get to walk some more.
