September 2nd

President Slaughter, Sister Slaughter, June, Larry, Sister Williams, Elder Williams

In the morning Larry went to get the U-haul trailer and we went to Nathan's apartment to pick up the things that he wanted us to take to Utah.  We helped him decide what was to go to which brother or sister.  When we left his apartment he had no table and no chairs or furniture in the front room.

We went to the office again.  While we were there they told us that Sister Slaughter wanted to talk to us.  When we called she wanted us to come to dinner that night at their home.  Of course we were excited to go but we were also frustrated because we were running out of time.

That evening we arrived at the mission home at about 6:30 p.m.  Brother and Sister DeNile and Leslie Williams were there also as they were going home shortly after us.  It was fun to have them there also as they grew up in Vernal.  It was a wonderful dinner and we had a good time visiting with them and President and Sister Slaughter.  We were able to take some pictures with them also.

After we got back we worked for about 2-3 hours on the cleaning that needed to be done by the next day.  I started the oven cleaner and some other things that had to sit for the next day.  It was a miracle to me that I was able to work so long because I generally cannot work that long at something like that.  I really felt like I was being blessed to accomplish it all.  I was so proud of myself because I got more accomplished than I thought I could do.  I had seriously been thinking that if we had some money we would just hire someone to clean because I didn’t think I had the stamina to do all the cleaning that needed to be done.
