Hey Mom! 12-6-12 (email three days late)
Don't worry I’m not dead, nor in the
hospital. We've been extremely busy this past week. The busiest and most tiring
week of my mission I think. Monday we had a meeting with the president, the
night before we stayed at the old house in Progresso. The only problem was that
there was another companionship was there as well (it happened to be Duffy it
was nice to see him again). Anyways there was no room, so I slept on a terrible
couch that's terrible to even sit on. My companion couldn't even sleep; the
ground here doesn't have carpet. Anyway the meeting was way good; the president
showed us a clip that involves the Atonement with missionary work. It was one
of the best talks I’ve ever heard.
Anyway Tuesday we worked outside of
the church as usual but it was extremely HOT! I've been sweating nonstop; I haven’t
been able to cool down. Remember how I would always be drinking water before
the mission? I've been drinking about double that amount and I’m still
dehydrated. And Wednesday we had interviews with the president in the zone. We didn’t
sleep like at all the night before so it was tough to stay awake during the
interviews.
One thing that you don't need to
worry about is me skating. We aren’t doing anything crazy, plus I had to give
back the skateboard. The member that we took it from wanted it back. So now
were doing the exercises at home again. The president has said nothing about
skateboarding, and in the white manual there isn’t anything against skating.
And if we do nothing stupid we're alright.
Anyway, I got your email about BYU; I’ll
call the president and see if I can't mark for something next week. He's super
busy doing interviews for this week. Oh btw, I got one of your packages that
you sent, idk if the other one got lost or if it's just coming late. Thanks for
the jelly, its way good. We ate all the chips and chocolate the same night that
we got it. It was way good. But don't worry; I’m saving a couple presents till Christmas.
The president says that we can Skype
on Christmas day no problem. We already found a place to Skype and everything.
I just need to see if it's ok to do it late. I forgot that you guys are 8 hours
behind. It'll probably have to be early in the morning (for you guys). I'm
pretty excited just two more weeks. Anyways I should get going. I love you all
I'll see you soon!
