Received Monday, March 2, 2015

Sometimes i guess you gotta have a boring week i guess. i do think its funny that in the new family photos of people at home people no longer have to stand 30 feet away to take a picture with everyone in it. and i understand what youre goin through gman pictures after church kinda stink.

Questions:
So what do you know about you paying taxes?
i know nothing, that is really weird. i havent had a job where i have made enough money where i had to do that yet.

how has your weather been this week?
warmed up like crazy, it was pretty nice. its been only between -10 and -5 most of the week (between like 10 and 25 probably in ferenheit) it snowed just a little bit a couple days but not much. apparently it should maybe start warming up soon. apparently this was actually a record breaking winter, on a few days it was the coldest for that day than it has ever been.

Any interesting songs sung in church on Sunday?
i actually knew every single one we sang yesterday. spirit of god, while of these emblems we partake, those are the ones i remember. the people who normally make the programs were out of town this week and i guess no one else was asked to do it or something so i have no program to check. i made sure to sing really loud this time because i actually knew what i was singing. my goal is to sing loud enough that everyone else will feel like they have to sing louder to drown me out.

Any random singing done in your apartment or car?
some, not too much that i can think of though. of course there are always certain songs that you have to sing as loud as you can to though. every once and a while i will be catch myself singing an apostate song (song that doesnt follow white handbook standards i.e imagine dragons) then i will laugh and stop singing.

Any interesting texts from your mission pres this week?
nope no texts but he did stop in! President and sister clayton came to North Bay (2 hours north east of here) to have a special zone conference with our zone (half the zone was too far, over 5 hours away, so they had to skype in) it was a good cool meeting he was doing this meeting with every zone, most of the time they will have a couple zones come together to 1 meeting so president doesnt have to do it so many times but we are so far in the boonies that he just came all the way up here. anyway the next morning towards the end of companionship study we got a call from him telling us that they were just going back down south to barrie and they just wanted to stop in and look around the apartment and say hi. so they did. i guess thats what happens when you live next to the main highway.

Any good work with investigators?
we have one, gavin who is pretty awesome. he comes to ward volleyball night every wednesday and actually changed shifts at work a couple weeks ago so that he could make it to church, so he has been coming to church since then. he is in his early 20s (no YSA in this stake) and is a friend of another member. sadly he doesnt have too much support from his family so he says he cant really read the BoM or pray at the house but he is moving out soon and he will get back on track. hes pretty cool.

Do you grocery shop at Walmart?
yup, and the cool thing is that we dont even have to go directly home afterwards because the outside is already the perfect refrigerator .

What cereal are you currently eating?
just moved on from off-brand frosted mini wheats to honey nut cheerios. normally i wouldnt get those but they were on sale.

How is the less active member with the 5 kids?
we couldnt come by last week because the kids were all sick :(

Find anyone new to teach this week?
sadly after much effort no. we did go by one former investigator mother and she said she was kinda busy because they are working on moving soon but to stop by when we are in the area. she was very happy when we offered to help her move when she needed us, she wrote down our number and names and everything.

Eat anything new/interesting/different?
i made my own omlet this week, it was pretty delicious.

what did you do for p-day?
going to go play pool and pretty much just more emailing stuff, i am going to write to president clayton today and ask him if he feels like going snow-shoeing is OK or not a few people have offered to take us. the only thing that might outlaw it is "no winter sports"

alright thats about it for now,
I love you!
Quinn
