I am a popsicle! Right now the temperature is -1 degrees. This morning when I went to class it was -17! Needless to say I am pretty miserable right now. All my old injuries hurt so bad when they get cold, as well as my hands which do this weird thing in the cold as well. It is so cold the inside of your nose gets frozen when you walk outside, and I feel like I have runners cough just from walking to class because the cold air burns my lungs. Today I went grocery shopping and there was a sale on milk...so naturally I bought two gallons because I drink milk like I am freaking dying or something. But then I had to walk around the house to my door in the freezing cold weather with TWO gallons of milk and I wanted to cry. Except my tears would probably freeze. Okay, so that is my rant about how cold it is...I often ask myself why I live here...right now I don't have an answer!
My cousin Cade had his Missionary Farewell yesterday and I feel so blessed to have been able to attend. First off, he is amazing. He is one of the funniest people I know and he is smart and a musical genius. He is simply his own person and there are endless characteristics/qualities that he possess that I would love to develop in myself. So I mean it is easy to say that I love the kid to death. But he spoke in sacrament meeting and the spirit that he brought was truly inspiring, and stronger than anything I have felt in a long time. It touched my heart. And I knew that he was called of God to serve, that he is worthy to serve, and that he has a testimony of the gospel and our Savior, Jesus Christ. It was such an incredible experience. When he concluded he played an original arrangement of Be Still My Soul on the piano and again the spirit was overwhelming. That is my favorite hymn, and it brings me so much comfort which I coincidentally really needed at that moment. Reminding ...
