THURDAY

Maggie, Colt, Beverly and I played 'Monopoly' today. Jo's sister watched.

Then, when that was over, Maggie and I did our daily chores and Colt went out with my Walking Stick and my Cross to get the mail. He reported that the trip had been uneventful. There was a LOT of VERY important intelligence in the mail today. My friend from the Phillippines finally responded to me on MeWe. His response had been delayed due to the Zombie Apocalypse.

Steve told me he was actually getting a lot out of the Book of Mormon and Bible today. He comes over here to watch TV on my laptop with us (or by himself when the rest of us are busy), take showers and get his laundry done by Maggie in her washtubs with her powdered detergent, and to eat hot meals, because he has no power or utilities at his apartment. Maggie gave him some Halogen lanterns to light up his apartment at nighttime. Steve also drinks our Coke, and we taught him to never, never answer the front door, ever.

The other day, Stephanie, his daughter came over with some supplies for her father, and I let her in. She's tough, that one. Her new boyfriend and her have many stories to tell.

Maggie made us a VERY good dinner tonight.

SATURDAY

There is a Survivalist Network out there, and people I know are both involved in it and benefit from it.

The trip to the mailbox was uneventful, except for the fact that I saw a HUGE explosion in the distance, ahead of me, as I was about to carry the mail in.

I prayed a lot today.

Most of my phone contacts don't work. I was able to contact Howard Cozart, who is doing good out there in this crazy topsy-turvy world, he and his wife. Also the Brotherton's fare well. And so does the Nunn family and Joey Hammonds and his wife. On Telegram (TG) Ben McLean reported that he is surviving and adapting, as well as his parents, brothers and sisters. Some others of my Church Brethren and Sistern are in the valley of God's Divine protection and provision that I know about. But not all have made it. These are the times that try men's souls. The summer Saint, the at ease in Zion, shall fall by the wayside. And today there is a heavy snow. Steve is sleeping with us tonight because we have heat.

MONDAY

March 28, after 10:38 PM is the next New Moon! That's tomorrow.
We all wait with eager anticipation.

We all prayed for one hour together that Paul and Dee would make it safely here tomorrow night and that Pastor Pete, Bobbie, Steve, Rick and the others would be saved in the Kingdom of God.

Jo's sister told Pastor Pete about the sweet, sweet Gospel of God in her simple way over the phone today. He seemed more convinced by her childlike faith than he ever had been by all my intellectual arguments and 'witnessing'.

Today, our labors seemed light as we awaited our first Communion tomorrow night.

I got the mail today without incident.

At 10 PM there was a lot of pounding on our door and more shouts of 'open the $%#! door!'.

At 1 AM it stopped.

We binged more DuckTales, read more fanfics and watched more Clone Wars today.

Goodnight.

WEDNESDAY

Paul and Dee came over again at 7 PM today and we had a prayer and testimony meeting.

Afterwards, Dee gave me a piano lesson on my keyboard, encouraging me to learn the notes. After they left, I practiced for a whole hour with my piano headphones on so as not to disturb Bobbie's or anyone else's sleep. Now I'm going to bed.

FRIDAY

I read more of 'The Coming Economic Armageddon' today. Money is useless these days. Everything we get is from bartering or trade, or it is just given to us by the Network. Every so often one of their agents gives us things which Maggie bravely brings in. Sometimes we hear machinegun fire. Sometimes we hear tremendously loud explosions. When I got my mail today a Chinese soldier tried stopping me but I held up my hands and recited and personalized Psalm 91 loudly out loud all the way to my mailbox, and back to my apartment. He never fired a shot.

Later Rick visited us. He called first, so I knew he was coming. I was surprised he could call me because I could not get a hold of him ever since this whole war started. We all witnessed to him of the fullness of the fulllness of the Gospel and when we left he said he'd read the books I had let him borrow (570 AD, the Book of Mormon, etc) and we wished him Godspeed, and we spent twenty minutes praying for his safe return home, until he called me and told me he was safe in doors.

Then Colt, Maggie and I started on Revenge of the Sith, then we watched the rest of Clone Wars Season 7. Maggie as visibly stunned by what happened to Anakin. We watched the first episode of The Bad Batch, Aftermath, before retiring for the night. Colt really liked it. Maggie said it could have been better.
