Christmas time in Atalanta



Christmas is almost here. Today is December 21st, sunday. We spent the morning in church and listening to great teachers. It is truly uplifting to hear them each sunday. Our ward is so different than back home. It is very diverse. Amazingly so. I have made friends with a cute young mother who has only been here since Nov1 she and her family are here from Ghana. She is adjusting however it is hard as her husband travels a bit. I told her if she needed anything to call. We are going to take their family a little Christmas treat on Tuesday. She will have family coming from Philadelphia on the 24th.



We have been lucky to be enjoying temperatures in the high 60's. But the weatherman says that is going to change. We have been driving back and forth to Elberton 3 days a week. It has been a long drive (2 hours one way) but very rewarding. We now know that we can do imaging and it seems to be working. We will be very glad when it begins to add up to more documents than 500 a day. They are all different sizes so we are taking our time.

Everyone here is so friendly, the cute probate judge in elberton, Susan told us that we could stay overnight in her home if the weather was ever bad, she said no one should stay in a motel. but you know us we like our space so we shall see. Our supervisor is Tony Rielly he is quite the character we are glad that he was there to help us for the past week we feel confident that we can do it on our own from now on so tomorrow will tell. We are still thankful for our blessings. I have been able to walk each day or do some type of activity. Paul has had a very bad cough for almost three weeks, he finally talked to the DOC on Tuesday and asked him for an antibotic it has been 3 days and still not a huge change we will just keep watching him. It is not good when he is sick he hasn't felt like doing to much it worries me but he says it will be gone soon. Hurry fast!!!.
Well best we get moving so we can be ready to leave tomorrow at 7:00 for our journey to Elberton. I need to learn how to do cute things on here. I just read Amy's post it is really cute yall go to it and see it. Fun. Hope we allhave a good week
