Much pain and suffering, this evening, because of Melissa's behaviour and Attitude.

Lots of rain this morning!!! At about 8am as I was driving north on LaPalma to go to doctor Gonda, I was running the WW on their highest speed.
After some phone calls, about the weather, present and forecast, Bishop Cozart and President Eyring cancelled tomorrow watering skiing at Canyon Lake. So then I had to contact Steve Brandt and cancel with him because he was taking his boat up there for us.
I did a lot of work at the Clerk's Office, gasses the Silverado, got the 2002 State taxes from Carianne Weston, H&H, go the needed things to change oil in the Hyundai and Malibu.

28 July 2006 .................. Friday
Gaia is here with us this morning. Instead of going to Canyon Lake for Water Skiing with the youth, as we had planned, We [Marilee, Gaia, Myself] went for a drive in the Silverado to see how much damage has been done by the Storm yesterday and forcasted to continue today.
La Palma is flowing with water, especially from Battaglia to Houser. Water is running across Hanna and Cornman and then under Selma.
Probably a good idea we did not go to the lake today.

Marilee went to work, I went to Florence to help the 1st Ward, Melissa went to play.
On my way back from Florence I found that I can now drive north on LaPalma, deep water, but now shallow enough to drive through. I checked out the John Deer Tractor we saw working the other evening and it is a Model 8130.
I put one bag of stucco on the East Cube. I got the mix way to this, but I did not have any more of the Dry so I put in on anyhow. Should be OK.
I do a lot of work on the Computer.
for Family Home Evening we [Marilee, Melissa, Wendell Jr.] meet on our bed and Marilee reads to us from "A Special Treasure" about the 10 Commandments in general and the 1st Commandment in specific.
I love the Gospel!!
