An Exciting Week Ahead

Amazing how things happen at once! Last week was the last week of Early Morning Seminary, the last week of University term time, and Tuesday will be my last shift at Borders. Along with that, I gave a talk at Stake Conference on Saturday night - so now I feel like all the burdens of my life have been lifted off my shoulders!

Today has been a blissful day of relaxation and uplifting Stake Conference. I'm amazed how Conference sessions seem to line up with important chapters in my life. For example -

General Conference, October 2002. I am preparing to go to Oregon, during my 3 weeks in the MTC.

General Conference, October 2004. This is the day I return home from my mission. I'm very jet lagged.

Stake Conference, Bristol. May 2005. This is the day I first meet Helen.

Stake Conference, Bristol. November 2005. This is the week I propose to Helen.

Stake Conference, Bristol. May 2006. The last week of seminary, work and Uni. I start to think about what I'm going to do to earn money during the rest of University life.


It's a very exciting time. Helen and I are really enjoying being married, and still getting to spend lots of time with our friends. We were over at our friends Sam and Ceris's house today, for a lovely roast. The plan is that we'll have the missionaries over later in the week. We have a goal to deep fat fry less things!
