We visited Sarah Biggs today and I didn't get ahold of Laura Vernon to visit her. She was in RS but AGAIN I didn't chat with her or reschedule. Sarah has her own massage therapy business. I offered to "help" her when she needs to try new techniques and she actually needs to practice one on 3 people now. How did I get so lucky? The medical students at Stevens-Henager always want to poke me with needles or take my vitals. I NEVER let them do that. It would never stop if I did. At church all I could think about was leaving-it was unbearably hot. Lakeesha texted me during sacrament meeting saying she and Taylor wanted to visit so I left quickly. I got home and fell asleep. I woke up for maybe 10 minutes around 7pm and Lakeesha and Taylor were there. They aren't LDS and were students at Stevens-Henager College. I took them to a missionary fireside once before. They are Navajo and grew up on a reservation. I got to know Lakeesha because she is extremely outgoing and loved to visit me in the library. Her boyfriend Taylor is not but he is very nice too. I made them musubi and now I think he's addicted. He wants me to teach Lakeesha how to make it. Lakeesha is 3 months pregnant now.

Tonight I gave them drinks, my generic but much larger otter pops from Walmart and cookies. Lakeesha still has morning sickness so she can't really eat a whole lot of things. I also played the new Johnny Lingo for them. I love that movie and it's a great cultural/religious movie ALTHOUGH the prominence of Noni was not lost on me. Noni funded the remake of the old classic church film. We're going to get together and BBQ next. I think it's the perfect opportunity for me to invite my Mexican friends along with some of my ward peeps. I want them to join the church but even if they don't it's fun to be their friend. If I can get Travis to DJ and bring his sound system that would be fantastic too.

Our RS lesson was on missionary work so it was nice to be able to do some tonight. Tomorrow is a Pioneer Day fhe at the church. David keeps talking about Sam's peach cobbler. I'm excited to try it. I messaged David on Facebook asking why we are celebrating Pioneer Day for fhe on the 16th rather than the 23rd. He never responded. I guess he can tell me why in person tomorrow.
