Yeah that week was pretty good. I found out recently that both of those new investegators dropped the Innasfail elders. A bit of a downer but hopefully soon I'll get some people to teach.I love my companion. Sometimes I have to bend over backwards so that I don't have to make him compromise but it's usually not very bad. He's smart and knows a lot. Sometimes I disagree with him but that's always going to be there. Sage told me he's going to brazil in march! Exciting stuff. My thanksgiving was good. A member couple fed us for the American one since I wasn't here for the Canadian one. As for the pouch my companion says he doesn't know of anything like that so I'm not sure what the status is. Maybe only senior missionaries have them? He said that the MTC may send your package back and tell you to send it up here.
I'm starting to feel really sick to my stomach for some reason. I don't what it is. The food up here is mostly the same as America. We get fed just about every night by members but breakfast and lunch we're on our own.
Thank you for your prayers and I'm sorry I can't answer all of the questions you have I'm not thinking very straight today and the feeling sick thing isn't helping. I'm sure I'll be fine shortly so don't let yourself worry about it at all.I
love you!

The librarians took mercy on us and gave me another 1/2 hour. I needed to write at least a little more. That last email was far too abrupt. I'll send some pictures hopefully next week. It surprisingly hasn't yet dropped a blizzard on us here in rocky mountain house. Oh! My address!! Send it to everyone if you can. I'll definately be here for the first 6 weeks and maybe longer. 5212 53 Street 403B Rocky Mountain HouseAlberta T4T 1R6CANADA Time is running short yet again. Ridiculous! This week I've been reading a lot from a book called Prophecies of Joseph Smith by Crowther. What a book!! It's a fun book that is also building my testimony daily! There are so many good books on doctrine of the church! I'm undertaking a challenge President Rhodes (my mission president) has extended. He gave us (the greenies of the transfer) fresh books of mormon. We are to read 12 pages a day and within 6 weeks we'll have it complete. I circle all nouns referencing the Savior and underline in red everything he says. Then I also underline in another color all the gospel principles we teach in our lessons. I'm gaining an all new appreciation for the story line for the Book of Mormon.
