Tiffany

When we went to Cyndi's wedding on Sept. 19, Tiffany said she was going to take out her endowments the Saturday after General Conference. I asked her where & she mentioned a temple in Salt Lake, then paused a moment & said Logan. I said if she went to the Logan Temple I could go with her. I wasn't sure if Don would want to or not. Neither one of us had a temple recommend, but we got our recommends on Sunday, Sept. 26. Tiffany let me know she had made an appt at the Logan Temple for Saturday, Oct. 9, at 1 p.m. Great, I responded, we will be there.

Today was Beutler Farm Potato Day. We always get our potatoes from Beutlers. I told Don I had to be up at 10 a.m., so he woke me up. We made it to the potato farm, got our potatoes, & dropped them off at Mother's. We got ready & made it to the temple about 5 after 1, only to find out Tiffany & Gigi (Gloria) had been there since 11:30, & were in the 1 o'clock session. Obviously, we had missed it.

Not all was lost, we did some sealings & then waited for them. It was a very special afternoon. Special always seems such a contrived word, but it was. I am so grateful Tiffany & her mom drove to Logan to include Don & I in this day.

Afterwards, we went to Golden Corral to eat. Here's where my hearing got in the way. I suggested it & thought I heard Tiffany say, "I'll wait." So, I'm trying to think of somewhere else to go. Gigi is not just vegetarian, she's vegan, which is even stricter. I was confused, we'd eaten at Golden Corral with Gigi & her family before. I knew they liked Golden Corral better than Chuck-A-Rama, but we don't have Chuck-A-Rama in the valley. I've heard rumor there is one in the planning to be built out in Providence, the "new" center of Logan, but it's not there yet.

What she had actually said was, "Always." Whew. Nick met us at Golden Corral just as we were finishing up. Gigi & the girls (Mindy, a friend of Tiffany's had come up from Cedar City with her) left, while Don & I sat with Nick while he ate.

Another tithing moment. I had only taken enough money out of savings today to pay for clothing if we needed it at the temple & money to eat. So, I leaned over to Gigi when we found out Nick was in the parking lot & said I'd need to borrow some money. She said she only had a $10 bill & some $1s. Ok, I took the $10. Don had $5 he handed over & I had 6 $1s. So, Don met Nick, paid for his dinner & came back, handed me the change, which I immediately handed to Gigi. Then, for some reason, I was digging in my little fanny pack. I think I was trying to zip it closed. Gigi made a comment on it not being big enough. I said it would be plenty big if I took out all the papers. I promptly took the papers out & started looking through them. Lo, & behold, there was a $10 bill!!!!!!! I could have sworn I was broke. I don't know how many times I've looked through those papers trying to find some money, LOL. I handed over the $10 bill to Gigi, she handed me back $6 & I counted through it, gave Don 5 $1s back & had $1 to leave as a tip.
