Please forgive the spelling and typing. I never said I could spell or type and my high school type teacher would agree.

Have YOU ever had one of those days. I did well, I should say nights. My roommate is taking care of anothers person house and cat so is gone. My other room mate was spending the night with some friends. So here is the story...

I put the two big dogs out for the night and because one is a fench jumper put her on the tie down for the night. Plenty of water and for the night and settled in to watch a couple of shows. You know the kind that is cops and robbers. Do they still have those? At about 11:00 pm the big dog and yes she is big started to bark, howl and act up. The more it went on the more I got upset. It is highly unusal for her to make such a racket. Yes, she barks but not like this. I called her but could not get her to come. I tried again still no results. Well you have to understand that we have had car break ins and break ins in houses where the people are sleeping while they steal from the house. (hard of hearing I don't think so) Well chicken me as I was becoming thought maybe I sould call my cop friend that lives down the street. Threw that out and called my roommate at 1:30 am and ask her what she thought. So she stayed on the line while I went outside and to the corner of the front yard where B was at. Finally got B. to come in. She was so up tight and kept going to the door wanting to go out. Then she put her body acrossed mine and pushed me back in the sofa in a protective mode. At 4:00 or so she finally layed down after pacing the room and looking out she went to sleep. At 5:00 her eyes popped open and she wanted out. I let her out no more braking or crying at all. What ever was there was gone. No sleep and none until Sat night when I went to be about 8:00 and died. B did not bark or get upset that night. So what do you think is was brothering her? Some say a wild animal, or maybe a ghost.

“We become so caught up in

the busyness of our lives. Were we to step back,

however, and take a good

at what we’re doing,

may find that we have immersed ourselves

in the ‘thick of thin things.’

In other words, too often

spend most of our time

taking care of the things which

not really matter much at all in

the grand scheme of things,

neglecting those more important causes.”
Thomas S. Monson,

“What Have I Done for Someone Today

Ensign, Nov. 2009, 85

We live in perilous times when many believe

we are not accountable to God and that

we do not have personal responsibility

or stewardship for ourselves or others.

Many in the world are focused on

self-gratification, put themselves first,

and love pleasure more than

they love righteousness.

They do not believe they are their

brother’s keeper. I

n the Church, however, we believ

e that these stewardships are a sacred trust.”
Quentin L. Cook,

“Stewardship—a Sacred Trust,” Ensign, Nov. 2009, 91

“The invitation to repent is rarely

a voice of chastisement but rather a loving

appeal to turn around and to ‘re-turn’

toward God.

It is the beckoning of a loving Father

and His Only Begotten Son

to be more than we are,

to reach up to a higher way of life,

to change, and to feel the happiness

of keeping the commandments.”
Neil L. Andersen,

“Repent . . . That I May Heal You,”

Ensign, Nov. 2009, 40

“Just remember that the legacy

is passed from heart to heart.

Charity, the pure love of Christ,

is part of the mighty change of heart

which the Lord promises to

His faithful disciples.

So it is not hard to see what simple things

you can and must do to pass the legacy along.”
