In other news...

This week has been a pain and oh so good.
I have had a massive amount of things to do.
They all got done.
I love to do lists that are completely checked off.

I don't have much to say this week except a quick, wonderful story.

I work in the temple on Mondays which is really fun and I love it very much.
This last Monday the temple was absolutely full because of the holiday.
We completely ran out of lockers and were rushing around trying to find space for the constant influx of people that were pouring into the temple.
In fact by the time I left at about 10:30, there had been almost 1000 endowment ordinances done.
That is absolutely amazing.

It was glorious.

It gets better though.

I was upstairs waiting with some other workers for a session to finish.
I looked up and saw my good friend Cameron standing there with his mission companion.
I quickly walked over to him and shook his hand, because you cannot hug missionaries.
We got to speak for a few moments before he headed out.

Why is this so miraculous?
Well, let me tell you.

Cameron is one of my little brothers best childhood friends.
After some time away from the church he came back and decided to serve a mission.
He is serving in Arcadia, California now.
He left for Arcadia on Tuesday, so I was able to see him right before he left.
I was so grateful to see him.
He will be such a fantastic missionary.

So, excellent start to the week, the week is done, and I am getting ready for the next list.

Surprisingly, or not, it is significantly longer this week.
Oh well, we do our best.
