Sunset on the Mississippi
Got my prescription refilled here and bought a pot of artificial flowers for the kitchen table.
The quilt shop in Nauvoo.
Today is Brent's birthday. I called him to wish him a happy birthday. He is going out for Mexican food which is a tradition in his family. He got a new "smart" phone for his birthday and is very pleased with it. We have worked three days in the temple. I took a beautiful picture of a sunset from the steps of the temple, but it doesn't do it justice. I'd need a super wide angle lens to capture almost everything here. It is beautiful. Today was our first P-day (Preparation Day) We get one day off to do laundry, clean the house or whatever we want. I've been doing laundry off and on and we cleaned the house yesterday, so we had the whole day. We drove to Burlington, Iowa where there is a Pfaff Sewing Machine dealer. Wayne bought me a beautiful one. It is portable. I don't have a whole lot of time to sew, but at least now I can do a little. I found a pattern for a wall hanging of the Nauvoo Temple. There is a wonderful quilt shop in Nauvoo. I found the owner is my shift supervisor on Tuesday. She had the pattern and a beautiful assortment of fabrics. Burlington is about 25 miles from here. We visited Wal-Mart and checked out sewing machines there. We found the Pfaff Dealer and looked them all over. Then we had lunch at Carlos O'Kelly's Mexican Cafe. We went back to the Pfaff dealer and bought the machine I wanted and then went to Dairy Queen. We got home around 2:30. The next two days we are on the morning shift. That will be new. I have a printed brochure of pictures of the inside of the temple, but our printer is not working. I will scan them and show you how beautiful the building is inside as soon as the router comes and we get things running again.
