Family File! 18 August 2016

Today was a good research day!  I looked at a descendancy tree, and the person I focused on happened to be [coincidences are miracles in which God prefers to remain anonymous:)] the mother whose children have some discrepancies in the information received by my Grandfather from Pastor Kalbhehn in 1960.  I was not sure how I was going to find that family, and until last week I was not sure that there were microfilmed records to check--but now I can do that, perhaps next week.

In checking that descendancy I also found female relatives for whom I could do temple work today!  I have not had that opportunity in quite a while. I had to stop by the Library to print out the cards, but was able to just take care of that on the first floor, so it just took a few minutes.

After several hours at the temple I went back to the Library to try to see my Zone Leader, but she was out for her research day.  I realized while I was in the temple that Tuesday will likely not work as a P day for me--every Tuesday I will be in charge of study group at 11 am, and on the third week of the month I will have Choir and Mission Conference. I am hoping an adjustment can be made, because I would really like to have full-fledged P days!  I realize that some of the study group members skip the meetings at times, but that probably will not work for the study group leader!

I was sad when I realized that I had gotten distracted from seeing if I could Skype with my Arizona grandchildren.  If something is not on my scheduler, I just do not remember.  This time it was an hour late when it dawned on me, and by that time their supper was in progress. Sad for me.
