** DAY 37 -- Speaking in Sacrament Meeting

It is over.  I am unemployed.  It is hard to process that.  I have been working there for about 18 months and it is a part of me.  I think, ponder, dream, and plan about my PREVIOUS duties.  All of a sudden, it is over. I need to replace those dreams, thinking, pondering and planning to involve our mission.  The clock is ticking to when we will enter the MTC.  There is so much to do, but we shall have it all done.

Tomorrow we will be privileged to speak in our old ward in Perry, UT.  We lived up there for five years and developed many beloved friends, and thus our Bishop Peterson is permitting us to come and speak in Sacrament Meeting.  We are excited to see special ones and associates.   We are also excited to share testimony with loved ones.

Bonnie is doing so well learning Spanish. She talks with a tutor from the MTC three times a week.  She is progressing faster than I thought possible, but she has the desire, spends hours practicing, doing her homework and is really excited.  I am sure Father has, and WILL bless her with the gift of tongues.  I just hope my Spanish comes back into my mind as I read the BOM in Spanish.

We walked to our special place today and prayed to Father, a prayer of gratitude and direction for the upcoming 37 days.  There will be much to do and we need to sit and plan a schedule what, when, and how to accomplish what needs to be done.  I believe the "pace" of our life is going to be shifted from second gear to overdrive, or at least fifth gear.  Will report on that later.
