Hey family!
Things are great here at the MTC! I'm working on a tape to send home you can have other people listen to it if they want to. It's easier for me to vocalize a letter rather than write and get a hand cramp. How's the weather there? It's terribly cold here. Snow and Ice . . . Boston will be worse. I've been taking a ton of pictures. I'll send them home when I can. I figure my memory card is about 800 pictures short of full so I could probably go the whole time without getting them developed. How should I send them? Thanks for the package of primarily leftovers LOL! The District shares most of our food, so we've been well fed. The extremes you feel here at the MTC are amazing. You can be overjoyed or over depressed. You always strive to have the Spirit, and when you do it's overwhelming. On the other hand when you don't, you feel so lost, ashamed and depressed. Great things happen here, that's for sure. BTW, I need Clayton's mailing address. Send it to me ASAP. Today I got a bunch of pictures to use and have. Thanks for the one you sent. It's freaking epic. [Note: Skyler is referring to a print of "Called to Serve" by Don Christensen, seen here on the blog.] I have that one picture of Christ where half his face represents mercy and the other half justice. It's a sweet effect. It's tough being Christ-like all day and everyday. You know how I like my alone time, and now I'm learning to live without it. I'm always trying to stop from being irritable and moody. Everybody in the district is so helpful. We have done the TEC and TRC the first few days. Nick can tell you what those are . If he can't, my tape will. It's a long explanation and my hand hurts. Well, things are good. I'll send the tape soon. Send everybody my love . Peace.
