Hey!
Sorry, we had a Zone Conference on Monday. So today is my P-Day!
Good news. Had a leg and knee doctor look at it. From the X-Rays and other stuff he concluded that something happened with the cartilage under my kneecap. I have a brace on and can already walk better because it is being held in a sturdy poistion. It only hurts when there is pressure on it. I will not be biking because of the grinding that occurs. Do not want this problem to happen again!
News on Great Grandpa Waller. The one who was in Utah is not ours. In fact, it is highly likely he was never even IN Utah. It looks like he was born in Kentucky and died in Ohio. I feel strongly....very strongly that this is him. Why? I have prayed about it several times and kept getting that strong feeling that this is him. Just tell me who I should send this information to. I am getting extremely excited about this.
At Zone Conference, I gave possibly my strongest testimony. I do believe that this is the reason why President Laney kept calling me "a good one." During the testimony, I was shaking, but firm. It was powerful. Everyone saw and felt it. There is a long entry about it in my journal, so I could remember what I said. YAY!
Cabin fever is not good at all. However, we found ways to combat this. Cleaning (mostly Elder Peters), studying, contacting investigators with the phone. Not much we could do. But, we are coming through.
Dad, the violin's tone is fine. It might not be giving the SOUND you want because it isn't very good quality. Another thing that will help with your tone and sound will be your bow control. You do remember that we had the Pirates Music already right? It didn't have the accompaniment and was for piano, but we had it. Yours might be different. I don't know.
Not much else to report. Oh yeah! We had a baptism of a 9 year old girl named Alex Halkney. My first one that I taught every lesson! WOO! Don't have my camera with me, so I can't give you the image now....bummer. Anything else? It snowed at least 6" today. The "fleet" (cars) got grounded for a while. They are back up now. The nasty slush is around now...boy is it nasty.
Anyways, I still get that feeling that Great Grandpa Waller was never in Utah. I only get the strong feeling whenever I think about this one who was born in Kentucky and died in Ohio. I'll look at this more and pray about it everyday till I hear back from you about it next week.
Love ya,
Elder Waller
