Some Days Off...

I took today off originally because I wanted to get out of going to a tabletop emergency exercise in North Irving. Since this Tuesday is our Stake Temple Day, I took Tuesday off. Now, I had to take Monday off and miss the staff meeting. So here I sit at the end of the first of five days off. But Saturday may prove to be my undoing... I had a memorial service scheduled for a member of our ward that passed away in a car wreck. It had to be cancel due to circumstances beyond our control. It would have happened at 11 am tomorrow. Then I have to preside at the Stake Bishops' Welfare Council, which starts at 3, Priesthood Leadership is from 4-5:30, the Adult dinner at 6, and the Adult session starts at 7, and should be over by 8:30-9. I will be able to relax a bit after the first meeting.

My sister Cathy is coming to town tomorrow! I am looking forward to her being here. I wont get to see her much until later tomorrow night. I hope to see the rest of my family as well.

We went to El Chico (EC) earlier today, and I realized that I like EC much better than El Fenix. I always thought it was the other way around, but I had their old fashioned tacos - beef, and this changed my opinion. It was just so DANG good! These are tacos with fried flour tortilla shells, lettuce, tomatoes, sour cream, cheese, beef and an avacado slice. Of course I put a healthy helping of hot sauce (now known as salsa), and viola! Que bueno! We had fun at dinner texting Porter the Texas pledge of allegience. We figured it would touch a nerve, and it did. Yee haw! After dinner we went to the movies and saw Julie & Julia. It was pretty good. Inspiring actually.
