Letter from Elder Morrison

hey family!
things are looking up here in boonville! we set 2 more dates this week, and will set another this upcoming week. if all goes well, we'll have a baptism every week for 4 weeks starting september 27! all seem to be progressing well. we had 3 of them at church yesterday.
transfer calls were supposed to be last night, but since things are being thrown off, they will be tonight. the most logical thing would be to keep us here another one together, but i'm kinda hoping that elder grayson will be transferred. the members dont care for him much, and he doesnt care too much for the area, plus i dont think he even wants to be on a mission. its making it hard for me to be motivated. we'll find out about our apartment today, after i'm done here i have to call the mission office to ask about it. i'm going to miss the old house, but i guess a change of scenery (at least a little bit) wouldnt hurt.
Elder Grayson has gotten me into origami. i've been making a ton of them in spare time. its really some pretty crazy stuff, but it's a lot of fun, if you know what you're doing.
as for the little girl that needs surgery, her eye muscles are too tight.
she's had the surgery before, but needs it again. it basically makes her eyes cross sometimes. the kicker is that they dont have insurance, so they have to pay in full before they can even schedule the procedure. i appreciate that you pray for them. i'm sure they do too.
man, nothing like getting grandma on her toes. going into the MTC early would be a big deal. i can only imagine if they called me a week after i got my call and said "ok, just kidding. instead of coming in 2 months, we want you here in 2 weeks." that would be insane to get everything in order. i'll make sure to drop Rick a line. i'm sure he could use it. i remember getting mail in the MTC. it is definitely appreciated.
sounds like the ball game was pretty good. i would have loved to go. i really want to go to a Mizzou game, especially since they're off to a good start. i guess i just miss doing regular people stuff, but only 8 more months until i can again. i suppose i'll be alright with that. lol.
well, i guess that's about all the news for this week. next week, i may be in a new area. i just dont know. transfer calls will be tonight. maybe i'll come to the library tomorrow just to write a quick email for you so you can be in the know.
love you all,
Elder Morrison
