  1. Yes they would call someone that age .....my example is of a man who was 82yrs old and called as the Bishop of his Ward. First time he was ever called as a Bishop.
  2. For myself I did learn many things that have helped me and made me the person I am today. I served in Leeds England from 79-81. I was shy and raised in a dysfunctional family. When I first arrived I struggled. I took it upon myself to buy and read the book titled ....How to Win Friends and Influence People by Dale Carnegie. Thru the power of prayer and that book woke me up and brought me out of my shell. I served a successful two year mission for the Lord and did the best I could. Did not baptism many but my mission was still successful. A few things I learned was Charity and Humility and a testimony of Jesus Christ.
  3. Christmas and Super Bowl Sunday and New Years Day
  4. We watched X Men - Apocalypse....too weird for me.

  7. Still home sick on Friday ....watched The Rookie
  8. I never had that experience.....what I have had happen is while at Scout Camp all week with young men .....they tell stories about their families and sometimes I would wonder how their Parents would feel if they knew what I was hearing.

  11. I wasn't sure if you meant SNOW or Halloween !!!
  12. With only my wife and I here at home ...our food storage has expanded. We purchase a certain dollar amount each month from Thrive. We have done those for the past several years. I am liking the spam idea.
  13. I have not always been the best home teacher ...I have renewed interest in it now because recently I have been called as the HPGL in our Ward. Lots of work needs to be done. I have always stated that you gotta pray abut your families before going to see them.
  14. That's so true ......I have been Hometeaching a Sister in our Ward for like 5-6 yrs. Her husband was not a member. Almost a year ago he was Baptised and was just ordained an Elder last week.
  15. I have kept a Journal since I was 18 yrs old. We had pen and paper back then .....unlike Pam who learned to write with a hammer and chisel. I am now 57 and have written in my journal more now than I did when our kids were still home. I write in it every Sunday and sometimes other days if I feel the need to vent. ?
  16. There I am off to the side of my horse. Now to find one of Mrs Palerider.
