Letter from Elder Morrison

well, sorry i didnt email yesterday...libraries are closed on presidents day. i was pretty annoyed. but this week has been a little slow. i'm kinda tired of Elder Heath, i'm not gonna lie. he's really testing my patience and he's really not well liked in the branch. things are a little difficult, but not impassable. i talked to jeanne a little while ago, but she didnt tell me she was sick. i'll have to give her a call. sounds like she needs some encouragement. things have cooled down again into the low 30's to 20's this week, but i'm sure give it a couple days and it will be 70 or something ridiculous.
sounds like everyone is getting married still. i did know that james had married nicki foresburg from the singles ward.
ty, remember when you go to the dance, if you're not in bed by midnight you probly should go home. lol, j/k. sounds like it'll be a good time. go ice skating in formals. just kidding...but maybe?
ok to answer questions,
1) pants are being taken care of as soon as i leave the library. i'm in washington, and they have a jcpenny, that way i dont have to pay for shipping.
2)work is going pretty well. we should have 3 baptisms this transfer, all in the month of march. not too many crazy awesome experiences this week, except that we're still holding on to marvin and betty ray, whom we will be teaching the stop-smoking workshop this week. Chase didnt make it to church so we have to bump his date to the 16th. as long as he gets baptized, right? Wendy is on course, and i'm glad that she has strong enough testimony that some of the things that members tell her dont scare her off. some suggestions for you. if people ask you about the temple, show them 'between heaven and earth'. dont tell investigators about the temple. let the missionaries do that. dont talk about the afterlife more than you find in preach my gospel. it just makes it really hard on the missionaries (especially during a lesson) if you bring that up.
ok, enough of my missionary preaching. i hope you guys are treating the ones in our ward well.
i got the valentine card. thank you. it bought me some food and a milkshake. we buy a milkshake in st. clair every week now because we dislike it so much. you'd be surprised what a milkshake (or concrete, or blizzard-like treat) can do for you.
good job coltin on the award. keep it up, buddy!
by the way, last week i hit 9 months. crazy...

love you all. miss you. pray for you.
