BLOG#49March 31-April 5
Just some thoughts for this week’s
events.
I
had to go to a clinic to see what the matter was with me. I had the same
symptoms for 8 days, and it was getting worse I would sit up in a chair for most of
the night so I would not cough as hard. The
Doctor’s Assistance told me I had acute Bronchitis and sinusitis- -a
double whammy. I guess I was not feeling
well -----no I knew I was not feeling well- the work just needed to be done anyway
so I continued to come into the office
and accomplish what was needed to be done and then I would go to the mother’s
lounge for a nap.. She (the PA)loaded me down with a lot of
medicines for the next week to start the process of getting better. I still coughed for a long time after but it
will get better. I know it will.
The
missionaries had a new assignment on Thursday. It was decided that all missionaries would be on bikes, walking, or
rides from ward members. The idea behind
this was to make the missionaries more accessible to the public and hopefully
get more contacts. When we saw the
sister missionaries we had to run out side to take of picture of them as we had
not had seen them before. They laughed at us as we all took pictures. Good
sports. We are praying that it will work for them some elders and sisters have
not ridden in a long time.
We
had tator-tot casserole and cinnamon
pull aparts this week. I fixed a lot but
for some reason the number of students were down and I had one tator/tot casserole (9x13) left.
I froze it hoping that I would find some one that really needed it in the near
future. Monday Sister Hopegood told me of a family in her ward that was in need
of a meal because of illness in the family, so that meal went to a great place for
a great cause.
Elder Judd: On Friday we took Lacho (Horatio) Palomo to the Orlando Temple for his
Endowment prior to his departure for his mission to Mexico. It was a great time
to serve as his escort in the temple and assist him thru his first experience
there. Wesley Lind, Cat Hunter and Taylor Grave Douglass came also. It was a
great experience for him and us. These YSA are much more prepared than I was
for this experience and he really enjoy it. When he came into the Celestial
room of the temple, his eyes got as big as silver dollars. Upon leaving the
temple, we all went to Olive Garden for dinner.
We watched the Saturday sessions
of conference at the Institute with about 12 YSAs. One of the YSA brought a
crumb cake and we ate it during the afternoon session. It was such a nice
thought for her to share. Being in the presence of the YSA is always so
uplifting.
Sunday
Morning, we went over to the church for Conference ( still like it at home better but the messages are still great no matter where). The
conference attendance here at the church is small when you think this ward
building has 3 wards. I thought it was interesting that several
families brought their children dressed
in Sunday clothes ready for church it
was great to see how they handled them during the am sessions. We also had a
lot of YSA and missionaries come too. The afternoon session we watched at Alex
Patrick’s home with his family. That was nice to be in a family setting. His
children are very pleasant to be around and enjoyed conference too. We had the
best roast beef and potato dinner, then
we walked over to the Indian Shores beach so a picture could be
taken and sent to their son on his mission, so I was able to take a
picture of the sunset and us too. It was
a very relaxing day after not feeling well for so long these past several weeks.
