Changes in How Things Are Done

It has been too difficult to maintain a daily posting, so from now on it will be done on Sundays--when we are home! Also, I have tried to do it in the third person, but that is also difficult. It will now come from my perspective, husband and father of a wonderful family!

Deb's medical issue is getting a little bit better each day. I will be VERY happy when we finally get it resolved. Also, going to and from hospitals and doctor offices at this time are very concerning.

This past week has been BORING--especially for the girls. I have at least work to do from home. However, it is hard working from home. At the end of the day, I do not get to wind down while going home. I am already home! Also, the distractions are great at home--almost all of them are unintentional but are nonetheless distractions.

We held our home-centered Sabbath Day worship today. Unfortunately, this morning we got a text message telling us that the sacrament could not be administered at home. Deb called Connie and asked her what Bill had gotten as bishop of the Arimo Ward. He said the email said that members with worthy priesthood holders could still administer it at home, but that the governor's stay-at-home order meant that homes without the priesthood could not have priesthood holders come into their home and administer the sacrament. However, the message we got from our bishop said no home administration of the sacrament. It was a huge disappointment to not be able to do it in our home.

However, we did have a fast and testimony meeting since it was Fast Sunday. Each of us bore our testimonies. Angie's was the most touching as she became quite emotional. It surprised her that she became so emotional. She is beginning to mature spiritually.
