          New Cute Quilt to Show You. ;)


          I loved how Elder Timothy Thompson's quilt turned out. 

          This was a couple of Jelly Rolls that I got on
          sale at Gracie Lou's.

          The back is a gold Minkee. 

          The whole thing turned out cozy and fun.

          "You Are Going To Get Hit"

          My Grand daughters with on of the little baby lambs in Loomis CA.

          We had a little story a few days back 
          wherein I was told to 
          “Get out of here Now!!” 

          And we wondered 
          if it was the still small voice 
          or was it Papa Pillsbury. 

          Some of you voted for 
          The Still Small Voice. 

          I voted for Papa Pills. 

          But in this story there is not a question 
          that it was the Still Small Voice. 


          Here it is:

          I was parked at the square 
          in downtown Rupert Idaho 
          in about 1974. 

          I went into Kings and the florist 
          and when I came out 
          a truck with a camper 
          was parked next to me on 
          my right side. 
          I got in and as I turned
          on the engine a voice said

           “You are going to get hit” 
          guess what I said

          “Oh Well”

          Can you spell dumb!! 

          But at the time I obviously 
          hadn't learned how to 
          listen to the Spirit. 


          Obviously. 

          So I backed out, gingerly, 
          and got hit on the back 
          right side of my car.

           Smash!  

          I am so glad that I have grown past 
          the stage of not being able 
          to recognize when to say

          “Yes Sir”
