I Love it here!

Hi I am going to write a new e-mail to you all.  I haven't sent one for a long time.
 Today I was assigned the prep. morning thought - it was on resurrection, judgment and immortality and I studied all week (that is whenever I had a chance) I learned sooo much on the subjects.  Did you know the Earth is to go through a judgment, resurrection and it will be immortal and be exalted  too? 
   I also (hang on to your hat) played the violin for prep meeting (who knew!). I played “O MY FATHER" I am so proud of myself I haven't played for others for 20 years.   I bought a violin a few weeks ago.  It is my goal to play the Lord’s Prayer before I go Home.   
   I don't think I told you we got to go to the St. Lewis TEMPLE a few weeks ago I loved it. I went to an OMISH town last week and bought food - they had grains and sprouts, nuts etc., really cute place. 
 I love it here and I love my NEW companion (as compared to my LAST!!!! YIKES!) My new one is older but so funny what a personality! Thank you heaven!   My last  one still loves to annoy me - if she was the last human on earth I would go to the other side - she would follow , she has to annoy someone and I've been told - I'm her main target.
The weather is beautiful and the Geese are coming back (babies soon).   I love the horses here, they pull the tour wagons.   Well enough for now.
 Love, Sister Janet Howard.   
 I get to talk to visitors every day --you know I love that.
