I'm Back!

Hey everyone, how's life?

So sorry for not writing the past few weeks. A few things came up that we are trying to get organized, so I didn't get much time to email. We're still working it out, but I've got more time today.

So anyways, life here in Stratford has been fairly uneventful. I can't really think of much that has happened here. It's been too hot and humid and our air conditioner broke down. We got a new one today, but we weren't allowed to spend over $120 for it, so we got this puny one. We'll see if it's any good.

What else has happened? I got to help set up for a wedding reception for the past few days. That took a lot of work, but it went well. Basically only Merrill and I, the senior couple and two other ladies really helped out. We just barely finished it in time for the reception, and then at the reception, I was busy running around helping out anyway I could, so I didn't really get a break or dinner. I wasn't feeling too great.

Sunday (yesterday) the Yankes came to church and the Branch President's daughter's baptism. It went well, except I decided to volunteer my services again (still feeling incredibly sick) and was running around helping out with the video presentation, then in and out of the kitchen with the food, then dishes (I did dishes at the reception too). I've done so many dishes in the few days. But I enjoyed helping out. Then when we got home (to a really hot apartment), I almost puked. Again. Being sick is not fun.

So anyways, there's not much happening here. Hopefully your summer is going well!
