This week has been great.
We started with Zone conference, which was fun, and a good chance to learn as
always. There was a big push for driving safety with the crazy snows
we've had. We had a "storm" here, a "blizzard" for
Utah, and the flippin' apocalypse for Chandler here over Thursday and
Friday. It gives us a good opportunity to do snow shoveling, which I have
decided is not the worst thing I could be doing. On Saturday we shoveled
the Londonderry chapel, and I feel like as long as its not snowing and blowing,
I could do that all day. It was cold enough that I wasn't really
sweating, and I just never got tired. Hopefully I have a few pictures to
send you all as well, they are on my companion's camera.
We didn't get a lesson with
Hugh this week, and he didn't make it to church, which was sad, but he's still
recovering from traveling with his parents. We did meet with Helen, the
less active who is teaching us to play bridge. Its surprisingly similar
to Rook and Wizard, so I picked it up quickly. Elder Liu, not so
much. Hopefully we get to play with her and her non-member husband on
Tuesday, although he isn't really anxious to meet us.... We also shoveled
Christine's driveway after meeting with Helen this week, and she wanted to buy
us coffee. We told her we couldn't drink that, and then she said next
time we came she would make us Hot Chocolate instead. So I look forward
to that. Looking back, it feels like things are kind of starting to pick
up this last week, which is pretty exciting.
Hopefully things continue to
pick up here. We are going to try to organize some kind of Mandarin group to
watch the First Presidency devotional all together this Sunday, so hopefully
that works out for us. I'm not sure, but I am really hopeful it will end
up being helpful.
Anyway, I'm missing you all. The cold is definitely
that. Cold, but I love it here.
