Typical Week...

Hi Elder Torrie!

Keep praying for the business!  I think it's close to working.  We have some good leads.  I'm going to SIngapore and Australia next week to try and secure some money.  

Some clips from the week.  My first real roast in the oven (I usually barbecue but I ran out of propane.😪). The customers were quite happy.

It was valentines!  Got my queen a necklace from Walmart and the usual omelette (mushroom, zucchini, provolone, and ham) and fruit.  Again the customer seemed happy enough. 

Design review with Sharp on the security robot.  Still haven't heard if Foxconn is going to buy them.  Supposedly finalized by end of month.  

I got home from a trip to Toronto quite late to the park and ride.  The tree was all frosty so I grabbed a shot.

My missionary experience:  I was in a CEO training in Toronto.  I ended up at dinner with an Anti-Mormon, a Catholic from Florida, and a tree worshipper from Toronto.  The anti-mormon went on and on.  His one point was that Mormons have the audacity to believe that if you aren't married in their temple God won't let you be with your family.  They were shocked....  Within the hour all three talked about leaving their wives and how hard marriage was.  People just don't get it!  He was an Elder's quorum president and a councilor in the Bishopric.  Power and knowledge of how to keep a family together comes from the ordinances.  It is not just a checkbox that God honors.  He teaches us and empowers us to be able to have enduring loving families.  As you know I'm not the greatest confrontational debater so I waited until later in the evening and then told them about the priesthood blessing that helped lift the burden when Wayne died and testified that we'd be together again.  We were all crying and ended with hugs.  

WE're sure proud of you! We tell everyone about you.  It's a great start to a missionary discussion.  We're working through Preach my Gospel for scripture study.  We're on page 82.  

Love you man!

Dad
