This morning I was not at all displeased that a meeting I had been scheduled to go to had been postponed. The extra hour gave me the opportunity to reread some of the blog posts about experiences I have had where I was helped by the Spirit, and send them on the the assistant zone leader who makes up a booklet to encourage other missionaries, and to give to departing missionaries. I was grateful to have the blog to refer to, as I had forgotten many details, and even some of the incidents. "Yay" for journaling, which is part of what this blog helps me to keep up with.
I am very glad that when I went back to the apartment for lunch I decided to check the weather forecast. I had planned to do some shopping tomorrow on my P day--but we have a 70% chance of snow in the morning! I had not yet cleared the snow off of my car from Monday's storm, having the starry-eyed notion that the sun would do that for me--decidedly not! So as I was returning to the Library I took a few minutes to clear the car of snow. Then, once my shift and choir practice were finished, I went to the market to get apples, which were the cheapest I have seen yet, and then to pick up a few things at the dollar store. I really plan to not drive the car at all during snowy weather, and I am just grateful I followed the prompting to check the forecast.
Today was my certifying time, and I had only one missionary show up, and he passed his last 5 modules, so he is now certified. I was not at all upset that the missionary who was supposed to come at the end of my time was unable to come due to a doctor's appointment. The module he was supposed to do was the one I am the least comfortable with.
My Sweetheart and I got to talk this evening--we both agree it would be really difficult to make it through without our talk and prayer every night. tonight another month ends--can it really be almost Christmas? In my case, I am grateful the time is going quickly!
