It was fun to sit down and think about my day because it was such a great one. I have included my way of roasting veggies if any one wants to give it a try. I make a huge batch and then eat it during the week.

A BOX WITH LARGE ENTRANCE
Lesson 2. Yin & Yang, Dark & Light
As cats have always known the art of placement of one’s self and objects for positive benefits is important in daily life. Our famous grace and serenity depend on a cat feeling safe and comfortable at all times. Light at the entrance to a box allows good energy in. Darkness inside the box enhances feelings of warmth and safety.

Scripture:
For what shepherd is there among you having many sheep doth not watch over them, that the wolves enter not and devour his flock? And behold, if a wolf enter his flock doth he not drive him out? Yea, and at the last, if he can, he will destroy him.
And now I say unto you that the good shepherd doth call after you; and if you will hearken unto his voice he will bring you into his fold, and ye are his sheep; and he commandeth you that ye suffer no ravenous wolf to enter among you, that ye may not be destroyed.
(Alma 5:59-60)
Object Lesson:
Materials Needed: A heavy object.
Procedure:
Display a heavy object, and explain that you can't lift it alone. You need others to aid you in this process. Have the rest of the family help you lift the object.
This is a story about four people named Everybody, Somebody, Anybody, and Nobody.
There was an important job to be done and Everybody was sure that
Somebody would do it.
Anybody could have done it, but Nobody did it.
Somebody got angry about that because it was Everybody's job.
Everybody thought Anybody could do it, but Nobody realized that Everybody wouldn't do it.
It ended up that Everybody blamed Somebody when Nobody did what Anybody could have done.

The Salt Lake City airport was unusually crowded that morning. A mass of humanity moving along the concourse formed an irregular pattern of coming and going. The "crossroads of the West" was evident as planes circled overhead waiting for the signal indicating each pilot's turn to deposit passengers, some for connecting flights and others returning home to the valley of the Great Salt Lake.
Inside the airport, small clusters of people gathered, forming a microcosm in a world all their own. Emotions were high, and tears filled the eyes of some. A father in a warm jacket and well-worn trousers gave his son a last embrace as the young man, in white shirt and new dark suit, tried to hold back his tears. While some people were hanging on to the minutes ticking away too fast, hoping to prolong the time before departure as long as possible, others impatiently waited for the time to pass more quickly. Standing by the window and anxiously observing the planes coming in, a woman in a small group struggled to keep back the tears as time for her seemed to have slowed down, if not actually stopped. Here and there were people who were alone - some walking with a clear sense of direction and purpose, others strolling along while drinking in the scenes of the airport drama. Occasionally a lone traveler, unkempt and with a troubled countenance, wandered through, seemingly undirected, going anywhere and maybe nowhere.
These scenes I had become accustomed to in my travels in many parts of the world. I routinely smiled at the joy of those awaiting the return of a loved one and felt some emotion for those bidding farewell and also some concern for the lone and troubled traveler.
I began the familiar walk down the concourse to Gate B-6. Just a few steps ahead of me I noticed a young mother with a baby tucked securely under one arm and a heavy bag weighing her down on the other shoulder. I pushed forward, thinking I might be able to offer some assistance. When I got next to her, I observed her concern. Hidden down between the passengers were three little children, all hanging onto their mother's skirt, crowding against her legs, and making it difficult for her to walk and maintain her balance in the crowd. She bent over in an effort to communicate with her little flock. By now I was within hearing distance of this anxious traveler, and between the loud voice over the intercom giving directions and announcing departing flights, I heard this mother say, in an anxious tone, "Listen to me. We must take hold of hands and hang on tight."
At that very moment I felt a small hand slip into mine. I held it gently for only a second or two, and then it was quickly withdrawn. The little child had responded. It was my hand that happened to be close, and she took hold. For just a moment I felt an overwhelming sense of responsibility for this little child I didn't even know and concern for a mother I had never met.
The Prophet Joseph Smith taught that life is like a huge wagon wheel. Like the revolving wheel, all of us at some time will find ourselves on the bottom, needing someone literally to pull us up. But as life evolves, there will be times when we are on top of the wheel and can reach down and help lift others up.
May we remember always the counsel given by the young mother to her little children in the busy airport with crowds of people going many different directions: "We must take hold of hands and hang on tight." Let us become a community of saints bound together by our common goals and our eternal relationship as brothers and sisters in the gospel of Jesus Christ.
Activity:
Choose a player to be the coyote, another to be the shepherd. The other players are sheep; these form a line behind the shepherd, each one holding the waist of the one in front of him. The coyote attempts to catch the last sheep. The line, led by the shepherd, turns in various ways to protect the last sheep from being caught by the coyote. When the last sheep is caught he becomes the coyote and the coyote becomes the shepherd.

These images are the record of an emotional visit. Beyond the pictures I want to share some of the details that I have found and so I have included some links below. The times we live in still hold onto to prejudice and persecution. In some areas we may not be hanging and burning women as witches, but we have new ways to to castigate people and to destroy them. Our ancestors hung and burned those they feared and those that they wanted out of the way. We seem at times to have transformed our lives and found a better world to share, it also seems that we need to look back into our history and learn lessons to continue our progression so that the fear and hatred of groups will not be raised and set upon individuals and other groups. Innocent women have been tortured and hung, or burned to fulfil the process demanded by society and in honouring their memory and in keep alive their story we have a chance to progress. In my remembering of the now seemingly inhuman ridiculous witch trials I wish to focus on the historical occurrence and to try to understand how something so terrible happened to ensure we do not forget our past which is an indication of our potential present and possible future and at the end of my journey through the viscous witch craze realise the horror within us and from that perspective honour the memory of the persecuted.
The old sign read,
“The Witches Stone of Spott.
Marion Lillie, the Ringwoody Witch was burnt here in 1698.
The stone is reputed to stand on the site of the burning of the last witch in the South of Scotland.
Near to this site the Birley Tree stood, under whose branches the local Birley Court was held.”
The Witches Stone is said to mark the spot where Marion Lillie, known as the Rigwoody, or Ringwoodie Witch, was burned at the stake in 1698 and serves to commemorate Marion Lillie and the plight and deaths of many others that were executed for witchcraft. The site outside the current village is thought to have been used as a place of trial, punishment and execution. The term, “Rigwoodie,” is an old Scottish word used to denote someone thin and bony. With many terms involved around the persecution of witchcraft it might be that the term is being recorded in to indicate both an improper sexual allure through magic and to add sexual allure to the telling and retelling of the story. Some authors record that many witches were burnt on the top of, “Spott loan”, in 1705, seven years after the death of Marion Lillie in 1698 which if accurate would reveal that Marion Lillie was not the last witch to be burned in the South of Scotland.
To this day the very harsh nature of times gone by including religious punishment can be seen at Spott kirk. An iron chain and neckbrace, or the 'Jougs' are displayed on the external wall near the kirk door. Contemporary locals keep a tradition of placing a coin on the Witches' Stane when passing so as to avoid bad luck. The now fenced off monument attracts other offerings too. The outcast and the persecuted are better remembered over time and there is a greater acceptance of witchcraft than before whether in the past it was anything like we often now think of it with it being a popular theme in contemporary culture.
It is noted that the area around Spott was notorious for its witch burnings in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. East Lothian has been made infamous due well publicised witch trials, with records detailing allegations, trials and convictions around Haddington, Tranent and North Berwick. The Iron Age hill fort on The Chesters, not far to the south west of Spott was also linked to witch burnings. From early drawings it is possible that the current stone is the last survivors of several that were a part of a megalithic monument. The current monument attracts good attention for the right reasons and it serves for commemoration of society being inhumane which is something that we all need to struggle against and to succeed in fighting. To witches and to all that society would seek to silence there is a potential for full re-evaluation unfortunately all too often after terrible costs of life.

A rough block of stone about 22 inches across both ways but almost entirely covered with road scrapings, lies at the root of the hedge on the southern side of the road some 3/8 mile south-west of Spott Church and 90 yards north-east of the junction of the road to. Little Spott. This stone is placed near the spot where Marion Lillie the Ringwoodie Witch was burnt. At the western corner of the junction of the road to Little Spott stands the Birley Tree, an ash tree, 12 feet 4 inches in girth 6 feet from the ground, which marks the place where the Birley Courts were held in olden days.

Some 500 yards east of the dwelling house on Innerwick Farm and nearly 200 yards south of the public road, in a field called Single Knowes field, is a slightly rising piece of ground known as the Witches Knowe, on which a number of witches are said to have been burnt.

About 80 years ago, while foundations were being prepared for the old hot-houses in Spott House gardens, the skeletal remains of a number of men with fragments of their accoutrements, including broken swords and buttons, were found, no doubt relics of some of the Covenanters who fell at the battle of Dunbar. All the remains were re-interred in the Kirkyard of Spott, 26 feet from the north-eastern corner of the church and some 5 or 6 feet east of the line of the wall of the church.

The Drawing Lesson
About 1665
Jan Steen
Dutch, 1626-1679
Oil on panel
"In a studio filled with artistic props and materials,
a painter corrects a drawing by one of his two
pupils, a young boy and a teenage girl. Not only
is this subject rare among Dutch paintings, but
the technique is unusually refined for Steen,
who generally used a looser style. He intended
The Drawing Lesson to celebrate the nature and
status of the artist's profession."
