I never thought I would be a used car salesman but I currently have 5 cars and 1 truck to sell. I think I might go crazy. With my phone number on the for sale sign of each of these, I get calls constantly asking about them. Most of the cars have between 50-60 thousand miles on them and they are priced between 8-10 thousand dollars. I am amazed how many people have asked, "don't you have some that are 2-3 thousand dollars with only 40,000 miles on them?" And then you have the people who you can't understand because they don't speaka the language so well. And they seem to be the ones with the most questions.
I will have another 15 or so more to sell by the end of the year; oh goody.
We try to have missionaries over for dinner almost every week. It is wonderful to have them in our humble abode, to feel of their spirit, get to know them better and hopefully provide a bit of 'home' to them. I am amazed at how much they can consume. We raised 6 kids and I never remember any of them putting away as many groceries as these young missionaries do. But we do love them and thoroughly enjoy having them in our lives.
Our granddaughter, Brittany, received her mission call to serve in the Missouri, St. Louis mission. She only had 34 days from the time she opened her call until she leaves. That will create some craziness because she also had 3 weeks of school and finals to finish in that 34 days. She went through the temple on Friday night and it was really hard not to be there with her. But she was surrounded by lots of others who love her. We are so proud of her and excited for her to join her older sister and us in the mission field.
Smile and be happy this week; people will wonder what you've been up to. Make it a great week.
Elder Taggart
