¿Como les va? ¿Todo tranqui no
mas? Well...this week I did read all your letters and it sounds like
you're doing good. Yahooo! Quick question...where is this ISIS group
from? And did the US start a war with them? The other day we walked into
a house and the international news was on...at one point during the
lesson I recognized the voice of Obama coming from the TV which called
my attention...I saw from the corner of my eye a bunch of bombings or
something. It looked pretty freaky! Menos mal that I'm at the bottom of
the world! :)
Sooo this week was like a whole
transfer squished in to 7 days. It seemed like an ETERNITY! I have no
idea why. Wanna hear a gross story? I must have blocked it from my
memory because last week I forgot to mention that while on divisions
with Hermana Zanuttini we ate lunch with Elder Kern and Elder Alvarez at
a family's house...they fed us asado since Hna. Zanuttini and E'
Alvarez were leaving...part of the Argentine asado is morsilla....also
known as blood sausage. Because it was my first time at their house they
gave me an extra large portion...everyone else at the table was
jealous...I on the other hand was trying not to puke. I hate that stuff,
che. It's nasty and makes me feel weird for DAYS...plus I've never
eaten that much in one setting before. Anyway...blood sausage...one more
reason Argentine's are CRAZY.
On the
up-side...we had an awesome district meeting this week. We went around
talking about each other's strengths...Elder Dunford...a brand new
missionary...told me that I'm hardcore because I don't "put up with
crap." he used an analogy of the dogs in Argentina....apparently I'm all
bite. There are dogs that bark at you from behind the saftey of the
fence...but I'm not one of those. I'm not sure what that means...but he
said it was a really good thing. Huh. So friends...I'm hardcore.
Ooohhh..I
did get to go to the general women's meeting. It was super good. I
loved how much it talked about the temple...the members here want a
temple...but they need to prepare themselves to have one! There were
lots of things that I really liked and I think the members did too. I
love the temple and I can't wait for them to announce one in Argentina
Comodoro Rivadavia! It's probably gonna be the best day of my LIFE! :)
There
was one day this week that was awful...not due to anything but the
WIND. It was wind with dirt...in other words...at the end of the day we
got back to the pension feeling like we had just spent the day at the
sand dunes! literally. My shoes were FULL of dirt...and so was my
hair...and my ears....and my clothes...and my forehead...and get
this...even my TEETH. The wind here is sooo strong and it's horrible
when it starts to pick up the dirt...plus it hurts when it hits against
your legs and your face. Not cool bob scott (as my compa always says!)
Soo...I'm super excited for general conference! This friday
we have zone meeting which should be really good too. My new zone
leader is Elder Erickson. He's from Las Vegas and only has one transfer
more than me in the mission. He's really cool...I don't know him that
well yet though. It should be a good transfer here in Caleta! :)
ooohh...today's some weird holiday in Argentina...for the workers or
something so the grocery stores are closed...in other words we're not
gonna get lunch today :( eat some extra for me pleeeease! We'll probably
end up buying ice cream since it's the only thing open...not that I'm
gonna complain much though;)
Have a great week! Thanks for your letters. Thanks for your prayers! Thanks for your love and support! I LOVE YOU ALL SOOO MUCH!
