" It was nice to be able to take a break today. My hands are really cold and it is tough to write. It is super cold outside and so I can barely write. We started out this morning by chilling here at home, and then we went to Gene's house where we had a good time. I really just sat there while they played a bunch of songs and practiced for a concert that we are going to have in a week and a half. After we sat there for about 3 hours, we finally got out of there.
Steiner and I went and looked around a bit, and bought a few things. I got a couple of discs and a new photo album and they are my gifts for Christmas. We had a sweet time looking, and it was fun to see what there was. Well, then we met up with Boster and Condie at Subway where we grabbed a bite to eat before going to write home. The family is good and it will be weird to talk with them in a couple of days. We then had English and that was cool I just sat and listened, and really enjoyed the lesson. We practiced a little more for the New Year's party, and then we took off to come home. We chatted with some of the youth from the branch for a bit, and now we are home. Tomorrow we will be in Samara and tonight we will be on the train."

Movie
12 December 2005
"The weather rocks! I love it. It is constantly snowing and there is already a ton of snow on the ground. It is way cool. It is also nice to be able to have a snowball fight and other things like that. It is so awesome.
So this morning we had to go pay for the place where the baptism will be, and that went well. We then had to find some ink replacement for the fax machine, and that was successful. Well, we came home for собрание округа which was a lot of fun, but hard as I was tired. Things seem to be going really slow right now, and it is hard. We got Subway for lunch and it is always nice to get some American food in the body. Максим then asked for a blessing and so we gave him one for his health. It has been a long time since I have given a blessing, but it is an awesome feeling when the spirit is working through you. I felt the words coming from somewhere else, and that is how the Lord blesses people.
We ran to a meeting with Баба Нина and she promised to come to the baptism, and she wants to come to church, but she says it is hard to get up. She will be trying. We then went to Афина's and had a good lesson with her, watching "The Restoration." It was a really good meeting. We enjoyed that, and then we played a bit with her. What an amazing time it was, and it is so amazing to teach the gospel. I love it here."

Free Beer
30 November 2005
"Another p-day gone and done. It was actually a lot of fun and we did a lot. We started the day by cleaning on the подезд. That was the фиг нам. We had to wash off the stairs because when they painted the gay walls they got the paint like stuff everywhere. We cleaned the stairs for 2 hours, and it was so painful. My blister popped that I got from ringing out the rag. The best part of it was that we helped a couple of grandmas move a door down the stairs and they gave us a beer as a reward. We told them we don't drink, and one of them got real upset we wouldn't take it. It was funny.
We took off, and Steiner got a haircut and then we bought some food for the next few days. We came home and we played a little chess. It was 1 to 1 and it was way sweet. We ran to the рынок, and I set up my lights for Christmas here. We then stopped into Subway and had some American food. It was sweet. We wrote home, and I finally heard from my Mom. We then went to English lesson and as always, it was pretty boring. We stayed for some singing, and then we came home. Tomorrow we should be super busy so it will be way nice!"

Good day
17 November 2005
"Today was a sweet day. We were all over the place. We started out the day running to 3 meetings and stopping by home to get a bite to eat. We were ate a members house this morning and that was good. He is an interesting guy - Анатолий Смолькин - and he got baptized about 2 years ago. He is a good guy, and he wants to do home teaching.
We then met with an investigator - Гарик - who wants to read the Book of Mormon and know of its truthfulness. We are way happy, and he is a great guy. We had Максим there, and that was cool. We grabbed a bite of chili before we went to a meeting with another investigator Диама. He knows a lot about the church, but is kind of lost in the learning and not looking to the spirit. I felt the spirit guiding me a ton while we taught him, and that was way nice.
We then had to pay for the phone and later, send off a film for a referral that we had received. That was interesting to be in the Почта and we stood there for an hour. It was sure insane. We contacted for a bit after that, but it was way too dark. We came home and I got ready for my lesson and got all my things gathered before I taught the lesson about Mark 4. That was cool, and that was very helpful. We finished the night with молодежный вечер and playing. It was cool. We grabbed a Subway for our dining pleasure and then came home."

"Today was sure and interesting day. We wasted a lot of time, and then we had a really good time. This morning we got in from Samara and that was good. I tried to get some more sleep once we got home in but that didn't go so well. We then went and wasted a few hours at Gene's house. There is going to be a concert tomorrow and so the elders all got ready for that. We quickly left and stopped by to Subway and got some good food! We then ran off to an English lesson that we should have done.
There was 6 missionaries, 10 young ladies, and 1 малчик. The lights in the school had gone out and so we went to a little cafe - шоклад.ru. We talked with them forever on English and talked about why we are here and in the end it was way fun, but awkward. We hope there will be some new investigators because of it.
Tonight I had the opportunity to conduct a baptismal interview with a Вера Федоровна and that was awesome. This lady is great, and the spirit was way strong. Tonight we ended up just planning and got things worked out for next week and how we are going to be super busy! It will be awesome and we excited to work hard!"
