Another first: Cambodian Haircuts

It is inevitable...  we have to have haircuts. Before our mission we would visit Wendy about every 5 to 6 weeks to take care of those too long spots that no longer cooperate.  It has been 6 weeks since we had Wendy cut our hair that one last time before we left, and our hair was is great need of a cut. (We can't wait until Wendy might be able to come for a visit to Cambodia.)  We have been asking around to find who to trust with this important task.  At the recommendation of one of the mission couples, we selected a spa to do the job.  The price was a little more than we had been told,   Elder Oveson's cut was $5, while Sister Oveson was more: $9 for the cut and $4 for a shampoo. The massage was worth it! When all was said and done we feel they did a very nice job, and so far no pop-up-timers have been noticed. 

Today was also when we had the web training for the Asia Area Self Reliance team, and the presentation from Phanna and Jitender which we have been helping with for the past few weeks. There was a minor glitch or two. First, we had a hard time being accepted into the conference call. Then as they were ready to begin their presentation, Jitender had a difficult time sharing the PowerPoint with the group. It finally worked, and they both did a wonderful job. We could not have been more proud if Phanna and Jitender had been our own children!

This evening after fixing a quick dinner, we sat down to watch more of General Conference. We are grateful for the words of these inspired men and women.  Isn't it wonderful that even though we are around the world in some little country that we can still hear all of conference! (It takes a few more days to get through all of conference here).  We will gather with the Saints here on Saturday and Sunday to participate with the members here in conference. We can hardly wait!
