February 18, 1997 - Tuesday

Well today I got up at 6:30am by golly.  It wasn't that hard actually.  But if I don't get my companion to get up with me it's harder than heck.  We studied in the missionary guide.  It was kind of weird but pretty OK.  Now we got to shave, shower & stuff some food down us before we slide off to the office. 

Okay its after D[istrict] meeting.  It was pretty cool.  Ст. Woolverton had some good ideas on what we should work on.  The pouch didn't come in but I got some e-mail from home.  My parents just got an e-mail address.  Cool huh?

My friend Allen Balzen is getting married on May 24th, '97.  About 16 days after my birthday.  I want to be home - but I'm not.  Oh well.  I hope that I get some letters from friends and stuff.  I want to hear from Allen & Doug mostly.  And of course Melissa & Michelle.  But they don't seem too much like the constant writing type.

October 12, 1996 - Saturday

Well guess what!?  When I was home Mike and Lynette came up and earlier my dad told me that they were engaged.  To be married on the 19th.  Well that's next Saturday.  Wow huh?  It was weird I did not realize it when I was talking to them (my mom and dad.) 

[WARNING - In this next paragraph I sound pretty dang naive - It's embarassing.  Read at your own Peril] 

It feels good to be back in the swing of things, but I know it will feel really good when I get off my mission.  You know what...that's not a good thing to say.  Because, then it will be, when I get married I'll feel really good and it'll never stop. 

I feel really good right now.  I asked Ст. [short for Старейшина or Elder] Parks & Ст. Kindred to give me a blessing and they did.  Ст. Parks annointed and Ст. Kindred blessed.  I blessed Ст. Parks earlier in the month & I didn't do a very good job.  I don't know why.  I had only done one before that.  Ст. Kindred was really good.  I feel lots better.  I know he is close to the Spirit.  That Elder has the longest prayers I have ever seen.  So does Ст. Parks.  Sometimes I have problems realizing when I have received answers.  But I know I have.  Well it's time for bed goodnight.
