Flight!!

As I checked my email yesterday I noticed that there was a note from my mission, so i eagerly opened it. It was my flight itenerary. I was to have a 14 hour layover in Salt Lake City. Oh good Greaf I thought. What am I going to do with myself for that ammount of time? So I called Mom. Told her my delima and she suggested that I call my mission president and see what he has to say. I agreed. Just as I was getting ready to call my Mission President the phone rang. It was him. He informed me that I was to stay the night at the MTC in Provo and them meet up with the missionaries leaving the MTC in the morning. All kinds of exciting. He is excited to get me, and I am excited to be going back. I get to stay at the MTC again. WOHO!!!

Short Stint

Hello and Greatings from..... California. It is Jamie and I am home for just a few more days. I came home for surgury.Surgury went fine and just 2.5 weeks after surgury I am cleared to go back into the field and work. I have resilved to work harder the seccond half of my mission than I did the first half. I got a rare outsideish look at what my life would be like if I had not gone out. Quite frankly it scared me. Some people have not grown or changed since I last saw them.... nine months ago. It has been nice remaining a missionary through this. If I get caught in a situation that I don't like, I can just claim that I'm a missionary and get out that way. It has really been a blessing to be able to see everyone and see how they are doing. It has strengthened my resolved to be the best that I can and to continue to learn and go. I am glad that I have been able to come home and I am excited to head back with all the strength that I have to be the best missionary that I an be.
