Bob: Well we are at the end of another month. We'll probably never spend another March in Canada, but who knows for sure. I think months like March are better spent in Florida and parts south.
Things went okay at the office today. Had to go to the storage unit so the Hamilton Z/L could load up some twin bed frames to take to their zone. I was glad to get rid of them. I haven't seen anyone using them. I just collected them when I closed some apartments.
Been working on the phone/text report again for President Clayton. It takes forever and when I make a mistake it just really slows things down. The text report is so big it takes a long time to just SAVE it. Then when I sort and subtotal it seems like it will never get done. Worked on it about 3 hours this afternoon including interruptions and only printed one small report. Still trying to get the big report done. And that is just the texting. Haven't started the phones yet.
We had a good discussion with Grace today. She has had some car problems the last few days and is also dealing with 'the buffetings of Satan' as she is being taught the restored gospel. She got pretty teary eyed more than once today telling us about how hard things seem to be right now. She thinks she is doing something wrong and it is causing her some emotional turmoil. The Elders and I gave her a blessing after the lesson and she was so thankful. She is planning on attending the Sunday morning session of conference with us this weekend.
Well it's time to get ready for bed. Hope everyone is well. Love to all and good night brothers.

Bonnie:  It was a good day today, although I got quite sleepy this afternoon! I need to get up and walk outside around the building, I guess, when I get that way. Today was rainy but it was a warm rain.
Tonight it is raining again but I'm sure it is not a warm rain. We accomplished lots tonight--the shopping and also the wash. Well, the wash will be done about 10:00 tonight. And I actually have another load that I will do sometime this week-end, maybe between conference sessions. I'm happy all of this is done. It frees me up to do fun things like tomorrow night's evening with a special sister missionary who is going home what we call "off-transfer". She will be with us tomorrow afternoon, then all three of the office couples and her will attend a temple session, followed by dinner with her and the two sisters she is staying with until she goes home. It will be a great night!
May all of us have a wonderful evening is my hope. And pray for Grace if  you will!
Love, Mom/Bonnie
