Well I haven't written for a while. So much goes on here, there isn't much free time and with me writing my gospel messages to my children, it takes my extra time. Last 2 weeks my computer was down so all I could think of was to write you a blog and tell you, I saw 14 Eagles in trees as I drove down the Mississippi to go to town (we get to go once a week!), They are magnificent, But today as I went to town the Eagles were sitting on ice in the river! I didn't know they would do that? Any way there were about 40 Eagles!! What a sight!
You know this mission isn't like Bradley’s, we don't proselyte the people come to us and ask questions. How great is that! Some days are good and some days are so wonderful. I love to tell the stories of the early saints and who they are and what they did. I also love to mention gospel principals. I can tell when guest are into what I am saying and they thank me.
Last week I was at Carthage Jail again (that is always wonderful - what a story there and everyone feels it!). Every tour is different - I just say different things to different people - it just is there to say and is right. Brigham Young’s home is one of my favorite to work at. We have about 20 different sites to know the outlines for and I've got them! I have learned so much while I've been here, in so many categories, I am just so happy. I read a lot ( yes me !!) and I love it . I just finished the Doctrine and Covenants, being here it all came alive I get it! I liked it before but I love it now.
Besides all of the work, I put on a Valentines get together last Tues. It was great!!!!! It was only about 45 mins. That was all we had time for, because it was after our performance and we were tired but IT WAS FUN! Decorations and 50's music and all of my great desserts!!!!WOW! You know I love to make people happy.
