Today was the first time for teaching the family prep. class. They just want to sit there and not answer any questions. Just like the class in the relief society room. But they started talking after awhile. It was okay and they who were brave actually took a flower out of the pot, but then some were too embarrassed to do it, so it was their loss.
Won't teach that class for a few more weeks and then it will be about families and children.

Tomorrow is Halloween. Can't believe that day is here again. I'm so glad I no longer have to get dressed up and do all the busy ness of that day in the school.

Dan and I and our friend will go to President Christensen's class and learn something useful about the Savior instead of playing silly games and eating donuts and drinking punch.

I guess there is a time and a season for all of these things and I have certainly gone beyond the season of Halloween. But it would be nice to see how my grandchildren are dressed for it, but that won't happen.

Glad the weather is staying nice and not snowing like it is in New York. They are having their first snow storm ever at this time and they are not happy. The leaves have not fallen from their trees, so branches and power lines are all coming down.,

Hope to have a good day tomorrow.

Thursday, hair day and visit with friends. Always a great day. I have almost finished quilting the never-ending quilt. I'm tying it and it is almost finished.
I think I am almost finished with my Christmas shopping too.! Nice to have it done and it isn't even November yet.
The weather is great and the tomatoes are still producing.
Having a good day.

What a beautiful day. Sun is shining and we went to our first yard sale. It was just in our neighborhood. The Hammonds were selling a curio cabinet and I wanted it. Two glass shelves and a light and it is small, but I have some of my more delicate pieces in it. Didn't need it, but I wanted it and now it is in the hall. Takes some of the clutter off of the book case in the front room.
Working on a quilt that is taking toooo long, but I am making progress. Started another one that they showed us at Pic N Sew. So always another one to learn to do. I am also making three more 6 inch squares to be done with the year long project of 6 inch squares.

Worked some more on tomorrow's lesson. Dan was a dear and took the Family Prep class all by himself so I could sub for another gospel doctrine teacher. Just like dominoes we rearrange and go on.

Sun is shining and that is great. We have had snow and I'm not ready for winter.
Helped the neighbor boy do his homework for the entire week last night. He will work for me and not argue. He and his father just butt heads so it is better to help him than to have them fight.
Went to the Jordan River Temple last night. It has been too long and it was great to go back. The High Priests were sponsoring the occasion and there were 7 people on the 7:20 P.M. session. It was a late time to go, but still glad to have gone.
Nice day today so maybe I will try to get the visiting teaching done today.
