Transfer 8 Week 1, October 4, 2010

I think I'm going to subject my emails like Sister Abbott did. [i.e., Transfer 8, Week 1]

Okay, here's the remainder of the questions from last week.

So what's the result? Are you staying or going? How about Sister Rigley?
Transfers. I'm going to Murray, Kentucky, so that means Sister Rigley is staying here.

How's Sara Edmonds doing? Did you get to take her to General Conference sessions?
Sara's doing well; she did come to Conference, all of them. I think she really enjoyed it, well when she could, when she wasn't dealing with Reyna's distractions.

How about yourself—were you able to attend a lot of conference? Tell us how that works.
Yes, Sister Rigley and I were able to go to Conference, all of General Conference and even the R/S broadcast last week. Sister Edmonds was able to go, it was her first Church activity as a baptized person into the Church. We get to go to the church building for Conference; it's sad to see how many people are there Saturday and then how many more there are on Sunday. Saturday Conference is just as important as Sunday.

And then to back up, how was your birthday? What did you do to celebrate? Did the blouse and skirt fit? I'm anxious to hear, so share the details of what's been going on lately!
My Birthday was good. We had a specialized training meeting that day and I found out that another missionary has the same birthday as I. (I found this out after one of the elders had played "happy birthday" on the piano. I thought: "How do they know it's my birthday?" Elder Pearson (my second DL) asked me how old I was, I told him I was 22, and then I signed "I'm old." He understood. I really do feel old, I guess it's because most of the people around me aren't 21 yet, if twenty.

I haven't tried the skirt, the shirt's a little tight, or it looks tight. I've obtained a few sweeters from another sister so I can wear the shirt with one of the sweeters and be fine. It's getting cooler so it's good.

I don't know what else to say/write. I'll let you know more next week about the new area.
