Last night Brazil played Czechoslovakia in its first game in the World Cup. The ending score was Brazil 4, Czechoslovakia 1. We watched the game on television, broadcast live from Mexico by satellite, at Aldo’s house. No work was to be done during that game. Every time a goal was made the entire city went up in an uproar, with yelling and fireworks and honking horns and whistles.
In an attempt to kick my cold, which has been getting worse, and to keep from getting bronchitis again, I have spent yesterday and today in bed. When not sleeping, I have been catching up in my journal writing, studying the scriptures, reading the handbook and the district leader’s handbook, taking medicine, prayerfully considering which members should staff the branch organizations, and such assorted tasks. Elder Blackham has read the entire district history and, as district historian, has added a bunch to it. He has also put in a lot of study hours. The only time we left the house was to see the game last night.
