September 10, 1996 - Tuesday

The Tuesday before I go into the MTC.  We are right now traveling down to Salt Lake, actually Pleasant Grove, to stay with the Van Dorns.  Last night was one of hectic preparation.  I didn't eat very well last night, the whole day, and I had a huge headache.

3pm - we just went and watched Legacy.  As the movie started and the music started playing.  I felt the spirit and it testified to me that what I was doing was right.  It gave me peace and told me not to worry, I'd do alright.

August 29, 1996 - Thursday

We got back last night from taking Gilbert dow to the airport in Salt Lake and he flew out at about 7am.  It was neat to see him again.  Well I called Vernae.  I am going up to Pocatello Tuesday night the 3rd, and staying until Thursday or Friday.  I'll have two dates there and tomorrow I am going to pal around with Tammy.  Hopefully Saturday I'll have a date with Michelle and hopefully sometime after this weekend also.  I need to call Jayme Holdaway and see when or if she got married.  Tomorrow I am going to start cleaning my room.  Night.

I am almost running out of pages.  It's a good thing I only have two more weeks until my mission.  It's Tuesday.  We are going down to Salt Lake City, well UT anyway, to see Gilbert off into the mission field.  It'll be really exciting.  I am envious, anxious and ready to go.
