Pnelly dropping revelation (Hudson's Podcast Week 55)

 In the field 365 days today!!

This picture is with Elder Clark.  He and Hudson flew to Tennessee together 365 days ago.  They have not worked together until this transfer. They are now in the same zone.

Wednesday:  Ate at "Toots" a controversial restaurant that some say is a knock off of Hooters.  Bowling Green has more restaurants per capita than any other place.  Hudson said he did not feel it was family oriented and very expensive.  He was planning to get frog legs 1/2 lb for $12 including side dishes, but the waitress talked him into the chicken special that was half priced.  The food was very oily.  Afterwards played basketball and that was not good after all the grease.  Lost 1 out of 3.  Went to Dr. Bailey in Murfreesboro and got free adjustments.  He wondered what Hudson had done to his

shoulder.

Friday:  Lesson with Pascal and family for two and half hours.  They have been in the states for ten years.  His wife seemed very attentive and spoke a lot about gospel topics.  They didn't have the lights on in the house.  The sun would peek through sometimes, but it was hard on the eyes.  Brett's daughters birthday party at El Pablo and Brett paid.  The kids were crying about the claw machine taking their money.  Hudson feels he is a good dad, except smoking around the kids.

Saturday:  General Conference.  Hudson is sad how little he appreciated it before his mission.  He watched Saturday morning at the apartment.  Afternoon session watched in the chapel with a YSA and having lunch.  It was raining so they pulled out their raincoats. Elder Petersen's mom sent him a projector, but it didn't work so they watched evening session at the apartment with "so many" bargain hunt snacks.  Got sad about how much work someone went to in making his fancy gummy worm.  Hudson started thinking maybe he is putting too much energy into material things and should work more on relationship as was suggested by M. Russell Ballard in "Lovest thou me more than these?" a conference talk.  Hudson pulled out a scripture.  His favorite book of scripture 2Nephi.  In Chapter 2 verse 25 it says we exist to find joy in life.  Purchased $.50 water bottle that look like milk jugs at bargain hunt.  The other elders paid $5 for the same item a few days earlier.  Got pitbull/Bruno Mars type sunglasses.

Sunday:  General Conference watch party at the church with the sisters from the other area.  Went to David Goodman's for the Afternoon session.  Served questionable chicken that made Elder Petersen "blow chunks".  Two bad cold calls this afternoon that got him riled up.  One told him that he should go shoot himself.  No thank you, would have been enough.

Monday:  Facebook shut down.  Went to sister Brewers.  Then made Mac and Supreme with pasta, ramen noodles and mixed vegetables.  Phenomenal with a little Slap Yo Mama on it!!

Tuesday:  Zone Conference.  Hudson got talking and Elder Johnson went ahead of him and got surrounded by sisters.  Hudson got the blueberry as the second car for the apartment.  Sister Weaver does Book of Mormon training.  She covered condescension 1 Nephi 11:15-17, 26-27, 31-33 2 Nephi 31:7.  Which is: voluntary descent from one's rank or dignity in relations with an inferior.  Jesus Christ who had Godhood which created the earth with Michael and God.  He had to be full of humility to come to the world, he created, and allowed the people of it to crucify him.

Hudson is working on embroidery project while recording this podcast.
