Week 33--April 5-11, 2020

We loved General Conference. It was as President Russell M. Nelson promised, "unforgettable and memorable." One of the highlights was participating in the Solemn Assembly at the conclusion of the Sunday morning session of conference. 

 Garnalee spent Monday making face masks for the sisters in our building and for Tom and herself.

Sister Hair and Sister Christensen model their masks.  Breath taking don't you think?

You can tell by their eyes that Sister Pomeroy and Sister Henderson are smiling under their masks.

We went to the Visitors' Center on Wednesday to work on our book inventory in the library and saw that the tulips and hyacinths were blooming> Couldn't resist taking a few a pictures.

 The Facilities Management team will dig them up in a few weeks and throw the bulbs away. I have asked them to save me some so I can bring them home and plant them in my flower bed.

Tom and Garnalee wear their masks when they go to the grocery store. Many other people are doing the same. "I was pretty sure I look dorky with my mask on," Tom said, "but I didn't feel so bad when we saw more than half of the people in the store also with masks."

We're able to keep busy with daily scripture study, CFM, and inventorying the VC library. Two positives: 1) We aren't stir crazy yet, and
2) Neither of us has gained our "Quarantine 15" yet.  We walk 40-45 minutes every day and are trying to be a little better about taking smaller portions at mealtime.
