11/19/2012

   The day began with something I really dislike - contention.  I had just finished exercising and couldn't find Scott anywhere.  I figured he was just visiting some of his friends.  Well, that wasn't quite true.  Soyla had called to have him come down and talk to her about the gate.  I think she has herself in hot water and thinks we can bail her out.  She insisted we pay for the entire gate repair or she would call a lawyer.  Scott told her to go ahead because he had a lawyer.  Who that is I don't know!! So that left both of us a bit upset.  Then Joel called and said he would come look at the electricity problem in the kitchen and check on the gate problem.  When he came he was so down looking and come to  find out someone had broken into his home and taken all of his valuable stuff.
He went down with Scott to check out the gate situation and said the whole thing was ridiculous and Scott shouldn't pay a dime to her.  He, of course, does not trust her either.  This could drive me crazy if I let myself think about it.  Joel called her and told her she was crazy and it wasn't any damage that Scott had done that had ruined her gate.  I doubt it made any difference but we will see.  Sometimes I think they should pay us to live here! Joel said he would send an electrician over to work on our kitchen problem at 8:30 tonight.  Of course you know what that means - some time in the future.
  We went to both of the Spanish classes - now we are learning about subjunctive conjugations. 
Brother and Sister Tesch from Huntsville are in Puerto Rico serving a mission.  Brother Tesch taught at least two of our kids in seminary.  Sister Tesch is doing an awesome job of helping with the music in Puerto Rico.  We will be meeting with them sometime this week as they are staying here for a week to do temple work.  It looks like so much fun when these stakes come from far away and stay together at the Casa for a week. 
    We had FHE in the Mental Health Center - the Marinos.  The lesson was out of the Book of Mormon on how the prophets, as great as they were, still felt despair and depression.  A very interesting lesson from a mental health perspective. 
    Then believe it or not, on our way home Joel called and said an electrician would be at our house in half an hour.  AND HE WAS.....We now have power in the kitchen and the sun room!  We are hoping to have the elevator fixed next.......
