Note: Council to my family and loved ones are, to have faith in Jesus Christ, build your testimonies on Jesus Christ, and love Jesus Christ with all your hearts.  This is what I want each of you to have and to do and I make a promise to you; I will try and set an example of patients, kindness, meekness, and love, without hypocrisy, and without guile or deception, to you and everyone I know.

Christ said, "Be of good cheer". John 6:33  Choose to be happy, be positive, and optimistic so when dark clouds and deep waters surround you and threaten to destroy you.  In the end, you have built your life on the foundation of Jesus Christ, and we know who is going to win the war; be patient and persevere.

There are only 3 types of temptations Satan uses to tempt us with, but there are many variations.  He used all three on Christ and Christ overcame each one, (1) when he had fasted 40 days and he was hungry Satan tempted Him to turn the stone to bread (2) jump down from the temple spire and prove the angels will catch you (3) worship me (Satan) and I will give you all the kingdoms of the world.  The three temptations we have to overcome are the lust of the flesh, pride, and seeking after things of this material world.  Satan uses these temptations to make so many different sins they cannot all be listed.  It is like a composer of sympathy using many different chords of progressions on a single theme.  The variations are endless.          ( these thoughts are from Elder Jeffery R. Holland and Jared Halverson)

Debbie and I had prayer; she and Karlene went to minister to Pam.  Later Karlene went back home in Shelly, ID.  Debbie met Jody and Shelby.  Shelby took Jody's truck and Jody and Debbie went to see the play, Pride and  Prejudice, at the Hale Theater.  I went to Wells Fargo Bank to deposit the 2021 Georgia Income Tax overpayment refund in the checking account I set up for Dan Truitt to pay estimated taxes, I could not put the money in that account because Debbie's name is not on the account.  I had to put it in a joint account we have set up and tomorrow I can transfer the money to the tax account.  I will try and get Debbie with me the next time I go into Wells Fargo Bank and have her put on the account.  I listened to the end of chapters 4 and 5 in Luke's Come Follow Me schedule today.  I worked on income taxes and started cleaning and organizing the office and laundry room today.  I called Barbara J. Worthy, the accountant who does our federal and state taxes.  I asked her about expensing the business meeting in Cancun.  She said that will have to go on the business's K-1, IRS Form 1065.  My thyroid lab work came back and my levels are too high.  It means my thyroid isn't making enough thyroid hormone. Thyroid blood test results:    TSH Rfx on Abnormal to Free T4 

Test Name Current Result and Flag     Reference Interval and Units

TSH                    23.100         High            0.45. uIU/mL. 4.5

T4, Free (Direct)    0.83                                        0.82. ng/dL.  1.77

When I got the report I started back taking the Levothyroxine 88 mg immediately.  I have been feeling tired, sluggish, dizzy and brain fog (forgetting things).  Debbie and Jody got home and brought soup, salads, and sandwiches for dinner.  Later Shelby and her friend, Abby, who got her mission call this week to Brazil.  They went shopping for clothes this afternoon.  The SodaStream CO2 machine arrived.  We set it up and stored the two extra CO2 bottles in the bottom of the food pantry with the box and return label for refills.  Debbie and I had prayer before going to bed.
