waisting time

waisting time is such a sad state of affairs.... don't get me wrong... I am waisting time right now but... sometimes because I'm in a 3rd world country I have to find something to do while my computer down loads so this is what I thought of... I will write another blog... what am I down loading... well, the Adbe reader of course.. taking a whole 3 hours to do so and it is REALLY LATE at night and I'm tired! but, we have to have the reader to view the contract for our upcoming summer employment. I don't want to call it a JOB... I would rater look at it as a career opportunity... so it is important stuff that takes like... forever to down load... and why do I have to down load it in the 1st place. most computers come with that right??? well this one didn't and my computer crashed last month so now I'm borrowing one to help me run the missionary mini office that we have to send our report on.

one very exciting thing happened this week that I wanted to just take a moment to share... we started the Temple Class on Sunday the 4th of November and we have over 40 that will qualify to go. WE ARE SO EXCITED.... to end our mission seeing the fruits of our labors in being an instrument in HIS hands is so rewarding. I just can hardly believe it is real... so I will PINCH myself and sure enough... it hurts so it is real.

we got 3 hours in of study time today. I love the scriptures! I have a relief society training tomorrow night so that should be good... we feel the saints really catching on to being members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. because they are now practicing the 14th article of faith... We believe in Meetings.... sure, I bet you have heard that one before but tonight.. the Elders quorum meet, bishopric meet, the primary meet yesterday and the R.S meet Sunday so things are really hopping... now the Y.M and Y.W. need a boast yet but that will be NEXT week!.... we now at 63% for the down load.... projected remaining time.... an hour..and 8 min... soooo now what???
