So yeah, this week has been pretty rough. I woke up on
Tuesday morning pretty stuffed up and I didn't think much of it, but Wednesday
I woke up and I feel like I got hit by a truck. I could barely breathe and for some reason my eyes would just water like crazy
randomly and spontaneously throughout the day. It's been like that all week,
and I'm pretty sick of being sick.
So Tuesday we got up and watched Elder Lopez pack up all his stuff then at noon we drove down to
the Hilliard building and dropped off Elder Lopez. It was weird, it wasn't like
I loved the guy a bunch, but I have to admit I'll miss him a little. The apartment has felt pretty empty this week. We were
supposed to have the car this week, but the sisters scrunched the car up a
little a couple weeks ago, and the car people called in the car on Tuesday. They said it would take bout 3 days, and it's been
six...it's not even our car week any more, oh well. So we spent a lot of time
on the busses again this week staying busy.
We had correlation with the Ward mission leader for the first time since I've been here.
He's been pretty busy with a new baby and so forth. He had us and the sisters over
for dinner and then had correlation. Then both the sisters and us went out and invited a lot of his neighbors to a nativity
our Ward and other close by wards are putting together. We have a lot of invitations
we have to give out before December 2nd and 3rd. I'm super excited for the Christmas season, not bagging on Thanksgiving
at all, I'm super pumped about that as well.
On Friday we went to district meeting.
Our district stayed pretty much the same. Only Sister Parker left and Sister Warner replaced her. Other than that all
the missionaries in our district stayed. Afterward I went on exchange with
Elder Bingham in Huntersville. We had a good exchange. We painted someone's
house a little and roasted hot dogs and marshmallows at a member's house for
dinner. The next morning we found a Christmas tree in their closet and set it
up. They are lucky, they have a full size tree! We exchanged back and Elder
Richins and I had a packed day. We biked and bussed from place to place.
Saturday morning was super warm so we didn't get any coats or anything, and
just suddenly a super cold front came through and the temperature dropped a lot.
We got to a bus stop and the bus didn't show up for 30 minutes. So we stood
outside in the pretty dang chilly wind for 30 minutes in our shirts. Let's
just say it wasn't very fun. The bus then picked us up and we got dropped off
at the next bus stop. That one was 30 minutes late, too. So we had to wait
another thirty minutes. Then the bus came and just drove right past us, so we
had to get on our bikes and book it as fast as we could around the block to get
to the next bus stop. We got on...phew. The busses are nice and all, but
sometimes they stink.
Yesterday we went to the group meeting for the last time
for at least a couple months. The room we usually meet in has to undergo
renovation, so they are stopping it for a while. It wasn't doing so great
anyways.
Anyway, the week was pretty good, excited for thanksgiving this week,
hope y'all have a great one! Love ya!
