sick but not done in

TOday we srarted the day out early because today is sunday and we have alot to do. First of all we stoped buy the big family with Gregorio and Carlos. The first thing we look for is the little kids running for the gate to greet us. Only 3 of the kids was ready so I knew that we had a PROBLEM. Gregorio family of 5 was not ready.There has been a proplem between the two familys for a while, since I gave them tin for there house,any way Gregrio said that was going to go to town to sell a tire, SO we gather up Carlos and his family and away we went. We were the first to get there so we went in and started to get things going. Somebody had cleaned up the chuch and it looked realy great. We got things going with the meeding, and half through the meeding we had to add sets to get every body in, it was great. We ended up with 23 people.We decided to stay out there to take Otilia and her family to Mochis for the visit of the new temple Pres.To kill some and not waste it we went to Monica house to se how she was doing,when we got there she was no where to be found. Just then her son showed up and told us that she was at the tienda down the road. So we headed there to find her and there she was needing help to haul groceries to the house. She was still comblaning about her leg so I called Brother VALENCIA to give her a blessing. When was done with that we pick up the family of Olivia and headed to Mochis.The Pres. wife spoke first a finnish with a great story and here it is.There was man that thought his life with his family was over,they couldn't get along and was fighing all the time. So he decided to change the way he treated his wife and children for the next two weeks. Every time she asked him to do something he just did it and did not argue with her,and when she needed to go to the store he valunteer to watch the kids and come to find out he started to enjoy the time with kids and also enjoyed being around the wife more and more. And at the end of the second week the wife remembering that she had got to the doctor earler that week.And being bewilder by his behavor for the last little bit,ask him.[am I dying] He simple said [no you are not dying]it's just that I have just started to live. She also talk about the fact that your spouse is eather your greates enemy or your greates friend. When he spoke gave alot of statistics of marriage and divorce. One of the bigges and the nomber one reason for divorce is money. He said that the differance between a rich man and a poor man is one dollar,when the rich man has spent his money he has a dollar left over ,and when the poor man has spent his money he still owes a dollar
