Prioritized Daily Tasks

Debbie went to exercise and I went when she got home and had prayer I went to the Legacy Center.

I got a haircut and transferred money to Matt to pay his developers for this month.  I sold some stock options to get him the money to help Matthew for next month if it is needed to pay developers and programers.

We talked to Michael and he helped us convert the documents needed to pay the deposit on our rental car in Novi Sad, Serbia, and sent them to  Bojana Jelicic.

I picked up two coats took one of them back to the drycleaners to have it recleaned.  

Debbie and I finished the 3 hour and 40 minute podcast of D&C 102-105 with Jared Halverson Unshaken Saints, The Redemption of Zion.  "Bruce R. McConkie died in 1985 of cancer.  In spite of the pain he was in he insisted on getting up and getting dressed in white shirt and tie before going back to bed.  His son asked why he would get dressed when he was going nowhere.  Elder McConkie said 'I am an Apostle of God and I will look and act the part, even if no one see me.'"                                                              Thomas Paine wrote in "The American Crisis" No. 1, Dec 19, 1776    "These are the times that try men's souls: The summrt solder and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of his country; but he that stands it NOW, deserves the thanks of man and woman. Tarriny, like hell, is not easily conquered; yet we have this consultation with us, that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph.

What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly:-Tis dearness only that gives erery thing its value.  Heaven knows how to set a proper price on its goods; and it would be strange indeed, if so celestial an article as FREEDOM should not be highly rated."
