Fall Has Fallen All Around

So, it is already the 9th of October?! Tonight was Ward Temple Night. We went, and the other members of our ward that were at the temple were the Colbys and Sister Hartley. I got off a few minutes early and changed into some grubbies to switch out the battery in the Expedition, which by the way, is $18 away from being paid off. I will travel to the CU to transact that biznez tomorrow. Apparently I had purchased the previous battery from the very same auto zone [I have NO recollection of that] so I got the battery for $40 instead of $90. Whoop. Put the battery in, and the plastic handle had to be cut. I got the utility knife and immediately raked my knuckles across a piece of exposed sharp metal. Sweet!! So it has a new battery that should finish out our tour with the car. Stopped at Cinemark on the way home from the temple and got movie popcorn. Not many things better. Got taken on the M&Ms, though. Paid $3.50 for a box that LOOKED big, but contained a much smaller - smaller that what you would buy at a 7-11 - inside the box. Rip Off. What are you gonna do?

On a brighter note. Ever since conference, and after hearing Elder Holland's talk on the Book of Mormon, I have had a burning desire to read it for the umpteenth time. I have been working my way through the Doctrine & Covenants, so it is good to go and read the BOM again. I will still finish D&C also. Well, gotta go to bed!!
