The Tie of the Day March 15th The Shamrock Tie This too is another one of my Irish ties, picked up on our trip there in 2000.  

Last week I got a message that was scary.  The place that I have almost everything that I have in the world, called and said that they were doing a check of units, and were checking if I had moved out, and to give them a call.  Well of course I had not moved out, where else would I put 95 percent of my stuff. I am stuck at work, working a 12 hour shift, and my mind is running.  Have I just lost almost everything that I own in the world.  Well maybe it was the other unit, and that one does not have as much in it.  But the one he talked about, means more, it has more of the personal stuff.  It has all of my mission stuff, of which I can not find any of my mission photos as it is.  All of the family photos that I have from my grandmother. I got home from that night and as I slept, I had a wave of comfort come over me.  That everything was OK, and I had nothing to worry about. As I got up and started my day, my thoughts still were of what I was...

I hope to write a little more in the next few days and weeks.  I kind of took a break from writing, because a few people did not like how dark and depression some of my blogs were.  I had forgot what this was about.  This was more for me then anyone else.  I have tried to make this somewhat interactive at times, but do not get many or no response.  

The Tie of the Month March 8th The Dublin City Tie This is another tie that I picked up on my vacation in 2002.  I served 7 months in Dublin which was about a 3rd of my mission.

The Tie of the Day March 1st The Book of Kells Tie Most people go on vacation and bring home magnets or post cards of where they went.  I sometimes bring home ties.  I got this one, in 2000, when I took my wife and my parents to Ireland.  We visited Trinity College where they have the Book of Kells.  The monks would spent years doing the art work and illustrations, to preserve the writings of the Bible.  This is just one of the many examples of there work.
