Hello people of America. Well this week was a reck. The start of it
was recovering from Elder Smithsons concussion then right after he
could start working he got really sick with a cold and we couldn't
work and then right as he was getting better I got sick.. And that's
were we are now. So that fun. On the bright side I hit my record of
least amount of lessons taught in one week! We taught two lessons
haha. But that's okay because this next week we know for sure that we
will see improvement :) so we had a lot of boring time at home. We
have also now seen every church video ever made.
Is week we also had District Meeting which is Stake Conference for the
little branches out here. There are 4 branches out here in La Mancha
and I had never seen so many members in the church before haha but
there's our branch of about 4 then two others of about 20 and one of
30 but everyone wasn't there because to get to the "stake center" is
about a little more then an hour from each branch so a lot of people
didn't go but it was a really good meeting. The mission president
(President Anderson) is technically the stake president so he came and
it was really good. Also the day before the conference we are sitting
at home sick and one of the APs calls us and tells us that he is at
the train station in our town and we had to come pick him up haha
without warning so it's a good thing we had just cleaned the
apartment. So we had to take car of the APs in our apartment for 2
days haha we also had to drag ourself a out of our sick beds to work
(which made me worse but that's okay) and then we went to the meeting
which was a pain being sick but the speakers were amazing so it was
worth it.
A bright side of having the APs stay with you right before transfers
is that I was able to talk them into telling me where I was going haha
it took a lot of convincing, food and back massages but it was worth
it. First the sad thing is that I'm leaving..:( I love the people here
so much. Even if it's not the easiest area it is so great and have
grown so close to everyone here so I'm so sad to leave.. But my next
area is warm!!! I have been freezing my butt off here in the coldest
part of the mish but now I'm heading to the hottest area of Europe! :)
so excited to spend my winter in warmth. But anyway my next city is
Dos Hermanas. It's a town off of Sevilla where I have been twice
before. Once for the whole mission iPad conference and the other time
was our Costco trip layover. So I'm pretty excited. And my new
companion is named Elder Garff and he is from Utah. It's funny because
he came in with Elder Smithson and they are in the same group so I
have met him before when I picked up Elder Smithson and I will be his
second companion. So I leave in 10 days so if you want to send me one
last letter to this address do it today or tomorrow so it will get
here before it leave! Bellow it a picture of our district of La
Mancha!
