This week was a little better than the last week. Until I got here into the cyber and saw the flight plans...
I´m starting to be able to control my comp and the weird stuff he does. I swear he has OCD.
He is always so tense and is constantly looking at his watch. He is so
worried about being obedient that he isn´t. He is constantly calling
others out on what they do wrong but thinks he´s perfect. It has been a
struggle. He keeps asking why i´m here and cant find the way to tell him
that he is one of the problem missionaries in the mission.
He has a year and about 3 months and hasn´t changed
at all. I´m not quite sure what to do with him. It´s driving me nuts
because he is always saying i´m disobedient for the smallest thins. Like
trying to calm down a screaming baby that our INV
has in church. We visited a member the other day and you could tell she
had just had it with her kids. She has three sons all below the age of
5. They were driving the mom nuts and while we were there I picked up a
crying kid off the floor and sat him on the couch to calm him down and
he told me I was ¨Chueco¨ in front of the family. It´s starting to drive
me nuts. He is obedient in somethings and in others not. He is also
scared of everything. He swears someone is always following us and that
everyone in the street past 7 wants to kill us. I swear he walks worse
than a drunk guy. He couldn´t walk in a straight line if his life depended on it. He is constantly walking into me. I keep thinking of D. &. C 121:7-8 where the lord says to Joseph smith.
My son, apeace be unto thy soul; thine badversity and thine afflictions shall be but a csmall moment; 8 And then, if thou aendure it well, God shall exalt thee on high; thou shalt triumph over all thy bfoes.
Sorry just had to vent a little.
Well
this last week the new MP got here and went through the whole mission
to meet everyone. He is really short but a really powerful guy. I swear
he scanned everyone with the glare he gave us all as he met us. He is
really excited to be here. I had to give my final testimony in the
conference and of course I cried in front of everyone. Thanks dad for
the lip tremble... Missionaries did the same stupid shout out to all of
their friends and comps in their testimonies. Makes me want to punch
people in the face. Ticks me off. Make sure and tell Ethan If he gives a
shout out during his talk I will stand up during his talk and slap him
across the back of his head. No Lie! :) I feel like that is just stupid
that people have to do that.
We
went to lunch the other day and there was a parrot in the house. It
would fly down and land on your head or on your shoulder. Let´s just say
I felt straight up like a Pirate. It was so cool.
Well
the house where we live has a wood stove and we have firewood... SO the
house isn´t freezing, and i´m not dying during the night. It has been
pretty cool. we get home and start it up and put bread on it to heat up
to eat after planning.
I
have been so tired lately I have no idea what to do. I have been taking
Multivitamins and getting enough sleep but i´m just so tired. I have no
idea what to do... Suggestions?
Well
we are teaching a family of three that is getting married on the 18th
and baptized on the 20. We are super stoked for them. there names are
Miguel, Maria and Yolanda. Yolanda is 15 and has a 5 month old baby
already. She is really struggling. But we are helping them out. We got a
reference from the other ward of a lady named Tatiana. We had been
teaching her and the 3rd lesson we had with her she asked if she could
get baptized on Sunday. All she wants to do is get baptized. She is
smoking and that is the only thing that would keep her from doing it.
Pray for her. She is awesome. The only thing is she lives alone and is
often kind of lonely and when she feels alone she smokes.
We had 5 people in church with 4 progressing to baptism. We are really excited.
Still
have not gotten the package. But did get Ethan's grad announcement.
Tell people to stop sending mail. I´m not sure what they do with the
mail If i´m not there to get it.
Everyone
keeps making zombie and death jokes. There are three off us in our Zone
that are ¨dying¨ and everyone is giving us crap about it. It is quite
funny though.
Well I love you all and miss you tons.
