The Temple again :)

 Good morning dear reader(z),

That Z only or mostly makes sense to those who have seen my "Cinderella monster" -alter ego videos made with snapchat! ha ha ha! At the end of each video I say: Hugzzz and kisezzz! lol. Yeah, I am weird. But so is my alter ego "The Cinderella monster"...

Yesterday I visited the Temple again! This time I went to the Mount Timpanogos Temple. I really like it too. I mean, which Temple wouldn't I love?!? lol. They are all a little different but they are all equally beautiful, each in their own way... Like people! 

On Friday I got the opportunity to go to BYU campus. I walked around (without my walker, mind you) over 3000 steps! Wau. I had the walker for over FIVE YEARS. Now I am done with it! :) I am SO happy! This trip has kind of transformed me!

I am just a lot happier here. The sun is shining, the people are smiling and it's warm! 

I so want to come visit soon again! :) I have visited two temples so far. Hopefully another one next week! I love all the Temples! IF I would move here, even for a while, I would be so happy and it would be a lot easier to visit the Temple A LOT more often! 

That's why this place rocks! (One of the many reaasons)

I can post a few pictures from yesterday... I was sitting in the foyer of the Temple yesterday before my friend Kjerstin arrived. I saw a person who really looked like an elder I knew had served in Finland. I thought it was vanhin Pabst! But it was vanhin Bellon! He even remembered me and that he once visited my home in Tampere! I (almost) shouted in the foyer: "Hei vanhin Pabst!" :D I messed up and uttered the wrong name but at least it was someone who had also served in Finland hah.

I invited him too to our reunion party.

It's gonna be fun! 

Not to repeat myself, but I really like it here... lol, .

Today I am going to church with the Perkinses. Thankfully it doesn't start until 11.30 AM. I can take a nap still before church if I really need it. One more good thing about being here is that I have so many friends and acquaintances here! And they are all (most  of them) RMs (returned missionaries). A lot easier to hang out, talk and do "normal" stuff hah. Of course, helping the missionaries is very normal for me, I feed them and try to help them, but here I can do more nice things. On Friday I walked around on campus with sis Cope and we ordered Domino's :P I really like Domino's :D hahhhah!

Besides, it's pretty difficult to know a lot of the missionaries serving here, because there are SO FEW.

One pair of sisters for 17 wards!!! WOAH. We have eight missionaries in my city in Finland...

I am SO happy today!

More later...





BYE!!!

 Good afternoon from Jakobstad!  Happy Christmas time! :) I hope whoever reads this, will be happy and feel joy and keep on going no matter what is thrown at them. I believe you can do it! I believe everyone can endure through all the difficulties in their lives. In Finland we have this thing called SISU. Google it... I am happy today. I have napped a lot and my parents are still napping. The missionaries in this ward are coming to visit us tonight and brining us the sacrament and my parents will meet the new elder here in this ward. He is from Washington state and he knows some of my best missionary friends. :) I love meeting new people who know my people lol. Yesterday we had the Jakobstad's ward Christmas party. It was fun. Today I was too tired to go to church. My dad is really sick and we take care of him with my mom 24/7.  My cats are doing well, they love visiting my parents, their grandparents... lol. They love snuggling with my mom and they love her when she give...

Depression in the dark

 Good morninng or whatever time it is when you read this! I hope you're doing well. I have been feeling a lot better than I usually feel in November. I think that my depression hasn't been bothering me for a while now. I am feeling a lot better, especially mentally. My right leg has a neurological damage and my leg is often very painful and I have no pain meds for it, because the pain is in the NERVE, no regular pain medicine can help and I have heard you get very loopy of the nerve pain kind of meds lol. I do NOT want to be loopy! Especially not from a medicine!  I have been feeling a lot more stable and even in my emotional life. I have been at home a lot. My friend Johanna helped me a lot many times when I needed to get around. I use a wheelchair outside my home. Because if I get a pain attack in my leg, I really can't walk and/or stand. Yesterday I had a lot of pain because on Sunday I needed to use my walker a bit at church. The pain came a little late, but it did come...

Things accomplished this year, against all odds...

 Good morning, day, afternoon and night!  Hope you are all doing well. I am doing so good. My leg is often in horrible, unbearable pain but it goes away after a while, it's like a "pain attack". Laat night I went to the ER here in Jakobstad and they injected a painkiller in my leg... It didn't help a long time. This morning I was writhing in pain again. It is not fun. But it makes all my other health issues seem small and insignificant. So, to say it bluntly: My depression is almost gone or like without symptoms! That is FINE. :D Makes me happy! Like, literally! HAHHAH. My cats are doing well. My mom is tired and exhausted. Me and my mom are taking care of my ailing dad. He is in Palliative care. So... We lift him up out of bed a few times a day. He sleeps a lot, sometimes he is restless... Here's what y'all clicked on this post for...  Things I have accomplished in 2024: I gained a lot of self-confidence. I believe in myself and in my potential as a future wi...
