Hi everybody!
We had a pretty good week this past week, just not super eventful. Things are settling down with our combined areas, and we're making it work. We taught a lot, and we have a lot of exciting things coming up, including another baptism this week! And then February is looking like a pretty big month for baptisms too! And we finally got a hold of some of the people who've been really hard to catch recently, so that means we'll actually be able to get back teaching them!
Actually, I guess there was something rather eventful this week. Our furnace went out again! Our landlords are out if town again, and I guess the furnace just shuts off after a few days if someone doesn't use the thermostat every once in a while. Of course, thermostat is not in our basement apartment and therefore we can't access it. So it started to get really cold again. One day, the indoor temperature was less than 59 degrees Fahrenheit, and that was in the afternoon, so night/early morning was probably even colder. But this time, we weren't going down like that. Thankfully, I got some nice warm blankets for Christmas, so that's helping me stay nice and warm at night, and our landlord taught me how to work the wood/coal burning stove, so we've had that going for the last couple days. I've gotten really good a getting it really hot, and it's been doing a great job of heating at least half of our apartment. The other half is still really cold, but that's what the blankets are for.
So yeah, that's about the most exciting thing that happened this week. We also had a really good zone meeting on Friday. And the combined Parowan/Enoch West thing is really starting to work. And since we've gotten back in touch with a lot of people we were working with, and since I've done better planning than I have the last couple weeks, I've started to get a lot of my enthusiasm back (the craziness of this last transfer kind of took a toll on me a little bit). Seeing Elder Ballard a couple Saturday's ago also definitely helped.
Well, that's about it for now. Sorry it wasn't a whole lot. I should have more to write next week.
Have a great week!
-Elder Oswald
