"Our primary purpose was to set up a system under which the curse of idleness would be done away with... and independence, industry, thrift, and self-respect be once more established amongst our people." (President Grant, October 1936 General Conference) This quote is in regards to the Church's Welfare System, which was set up in 1936, but still applies to us today. My favorite word in that quote is THRIFT; we should be a thrifty, or provident, people.

Free keyboard stand or small electronic organ
I have a cherry wood keyboard stand and and electronic organ that need a home. We got the organ from Marci Jones before we had a piano. Now that we have a piano we no longer use the organ. The same with the keyboard stand.... Both are sitting in my basement and collecting dust. They also need a little TLC...I will clean them up as much as I can before giving them away. If anyone is interested, please contact Erin Tilton. Thanks!

Boys red sweatpants or foam finger???
Thank you so much for the awesome response to the need Kailey had for a dress. She was able to have many to choose from; thank you to everyone that offered to help. Now I am looking for a couple of items to finish off some Halloween costumes for my kids. I am looking for red sweatpants for my son. He wears size 6-7. I would only need to borrow them and I would not be altering them in any way. I am also looking for a big foam #1 fan sports finger. If anyone has these items please contact me. Thanks again for all of your help. --Erin Tilton

Lella Pomeroy has Chihuahua for sale
We have been keeping a Chihuahua for a friend, temporarily. It now turns out that the friend cannot take it back and we are unable to keep it, for various reasons (my lease, grandkids allergies, etc). He is a brown pure bred male Chihuahua, not a pup but still young (about 6 yrs. old). For his breed, he is well behaved and fun to have around. He needs a family because he thrives on company and attention. He has been "fixed" and has a micro chip ID, a carrier, a bed, food, feeding dishes and his shots are all up to date. His name is Bubs. The friend/original owner would like to recoup their costs......they acquired the dog for free and did all work, etc......which amounts to almost $400. For this kind of dog, that is cheap. If you go to the Shelter and get a dog for free, you still have to pay for the shots, etc. We realize that it is more important to find him a home than recoup the investment, so remuneration is negotiable....believe me, it is. Actually, from my point of view, I would give him away. I'll cross that bridge when I get to it. Anyone out there want a cute Chihuahua....or know of someone who does? Contact David or Lella Pomeroy 801-491-0950 or at sendaichef@gmail.com or lellasplace@gmail.com.
Formal dress/ball gown needed for Kailey Tilton
Does anyone have or know of someone that has a formal dress/ball gown that my oldest daughter can borrow? If needed, I would be willing to rent the dress as well. She has a Glee performance coming up and needs a dress that almost touches the floor. She wears a size 4 but I'm sure we could make a size 6 work as well. If anyone can help, please contact Erin Tilton. Thank you!

October 2012 Provident Living Article
I loved this article that is found in the October issue of the Ensign. It explains how provident living applies to many important areas in our lives, not just food storage. I really hope that many of you will at least take a quick look.
