Hi there!

This week has been pretty good. I don't really know what to say. I haven't been very good at keeping track of things that go on in the week anymore.

Sister R. and I haven't been feeling the greatest lately. I was thinking it may have been from something that we ate one day, but then we pulled the couch out from the wall and noticed tons of mold on our wall....it is also underneath our carpet...then we noticed it underneath the window in our room. There is a lot of it but it will hopefully be taken care of soon. We may have to change apartments but we will find out sometime soon I'm sure. Hopefully after it gets taken care of we won't get sick as much or at all....

Happy birthday to Kelly! I should've sent a card, but I didn't think about it until it was Monday and then I can't write...only on Wednesdays....the whole obedience thing. crazy.....

I saw Mrs. Brower again on Motab....I think you all should join MOTAB so I can see you! It brings a slice of home...

At church this Sunday, R. and her 4 kids came to church...that was cool. M. came to the Christmas Devotional that night. She is still planning on getting baptized on Dec. 19th...I'm not sure if that will work or not, but we are aiming for it. We went to an appt with her and she started confessing things to her mother about what happened when her grandma died....it was not a good situation, but we were able to be there helping her through it...haha. weird!

So I don't really know how SKYPE works....do I call the phone or do I call to an email address? I'm not really sure, but maybe you can talk to Ames about it and we can figure it out before....I hate waiting til the last minute.

We didn't get any snow in Mid-county. Baytown got an inch or two, LaPorte got some, Houston/Kingwood got some. Mid county....sleet. Lame! It was cold cold rain! I was busting out all the sweaters and such I could. The other day it looked nasty and cold outside, but then I went out and the humid 70 degree weather hit me....it was hot, but then the wind blew and it was colder....Today is sunny and 60s.... I can get used to days like today! Everyone says its been a cold winter so far. I hope it stays like this....it rains a little, but it is pretty much ok for the most part.

I drove all the way to "Yueston" today. I was following Meredith's directions (our GPS--Meredith Magellan) and she took us the long way! It was a little ridiculous but then the Assistants and President told me how to get there the quicker way. It was also about 20-30 miles less of a distance. I don't like driving so much anymore so I am so excited for the time that Sis. R. can drive! Only a week and a half now!
The Malibu isn't so comfortable for the long distance drives so I have a pretty good headache now, but I will survive....Sis. S. used to have this lotion that was awesome for my neck because it was natural and relieved tension....she took it with her. I've been looking for it and hopefully I'll be able to find it one day. I bet it will help.

Sorry this was so sporadic. I am hoping that we can leave at a decent time today. I have laundry going....haha

Well, I love you all and am so excited to get to talk to you soon!

Love,

Jackie
