Thanksgiving

The Missionary staff of 8 of us had a potluck Thanksgiving day from 3:00 pm to 8:00 pm.  Turkey, Lutie's rolls, gravy, pies, dressing, salads, sweet potatoe something, games and the end of a movie we all were watching a week ago.

I took pictures which I will cull through and post in an edit of this one later.  Today hopefully.  Sister Daniel and I were tasked with manning the Library for the British Genealogical Society meeting and dinner today, Sunday,  from 11 am to 5 pm.

Megan was with us till Thanksgiving morning, leaving about 7:00 am to get to a morning breakfast date with a CHP officer, in Barstow.   She drove real fast, knowing he'd stop the ticket....  Ha ha ha, not so, but had you going didn't I.

I was part of two health blessings yesterday.  Today, the one with the sore knee snapped a tendon.  Better not ask me for a blessing.  Well, I annointed in both cases, but my faith was in on the blessing with my hands on the blessee's head.  So how good am I at the faith business, I wonder.  Why wonder, result is fact.

We are loving our little kitchen.  Too small for two people, but we get by, what with me being tall and Sister Daniel being small.  I reach up, she reaches down.  I'm behind her and our arms pass harmlessly over or under one another.  Everything is close at hand, a step and a half away at most.

I have found stuff on the Smith family line, my mother's line, and am verifying it.  I will have names to assign out.  When will Melissa and Emma be able to do baptisms for the dead?  Probably not til age 12, I remember now.  Pooh!

Elder Daniel (Dad, Grandpa)

Elder Daniel has put in most everything we have been doing since the last entry; so I really have nothing to add except that I am really looking forward to the lights going on at the LA Temple and they haven't turned on yet.
