I got up at about 6:15 am, had prayer, and sent happy birthday texts on a thread to some of the family to Danny and Max.   I paid tithing and overpayments on Capital One Visa and American Express cards to be sure I am covered in case I am not back in time to make the next month's payment.  With the Citi Bank Visa card, I paid the full current amount, more than what was on the last statement.  Citi Bank will not accept an overpayment, but they will charge you late fees and interest.  I was short in December on making a full payment by about $10.  I tried for 3 months to get it paid but was never able to pay the exact amount because the numbers I was given had changed by the time they received the payment.  The amount had increased in 3 months from $10 to $245 for late fees, interest, etc.  I was finally able to file a complaint to people who were high enough with Citibank to get the charges reversed. I paid Labcore $10 with Capital One Visa for lab work done in Feb. of this year.  I called Metal Art Foundry here in Lehi and they do not have the bronze grave marker back from being cast for William Alexander and Manah McAlpin/Old Indian Graveyard.  They will ship it to Bobby Husley in Hiram, Georgia, when it is finished.  I called Bobby and he gave the address to ship it to: Affordable Monuments, 781 Hiram Acworth Hwy, Hiram, GA 30141.   I talked to Bobby Husley, and he said I could pay him when he gets the monument placed inside the rock wall at the Pleasant Hill Church Cemetery.  I went by the Metal Art Foundry and saw Jared Neves.  I have paid $200 and will owe another $269.80 when it is shipped to Bobby Husley at Affordable Monuments in Hiram, GA.   Since I am leaving in a week, I paid him $160.00 and told him I would get the $109.80 to him before I leave for Nepal.  I went by the Family History Center in Lehi and met with Brother Maxwell.  I made pictures of all the graves listed in Pleasant Hill Baptist Church that are listed in Find A Grave.  To get into the graves at Pleasant Hill and William Alexander and Manah Matilda McAlpin/Old Indian Graveyard, I have to go through the names of people buried in the cemeteries.  Brother Maxwell made copies of 361 of the graves and many of the markers that A. Benefield had submitted.   I want to get some help completing the work that he has started.  I came home and met Debbie when she finished her Cardo Therapy.  I took the Outback and she drove the Tesla.  I put the box of goodies that Tylee's parents and Debbie have put together for her before she leaves for her mission in the Netherlands.  There is a location in BYU's service location behind the MTC that will get packages to missionaries in the MTC the same day.  They charge 25 cents a pound for shipping.  Tylee's package weighed 20 pounds.  I called Alex and we met her and Carter for lunch at Zupas.   We had a good visit with them and came home.  We studied, watched a movie, and had prayer before going to bed.
