¿Como andan? This week is Christmas!!
Can you believe it?! I sure can't. What happened to the year...I think
we skipped half of it. But anyway...I hope ya'll have a very merry
christmas this year. We'll be talking soooon!
So...this
week was crazy. Remind me one day to tell ya'll what happened cause I
don't have much time. But basically Hermana Rodriguez didn't end up
leaving until Tuesday morning. On Monday night we were at the pension of the zone leaders until about 11:30PM
with all the missionaries wrapping up suitcases in plastic bags and
tape from the missionaries that had traveled north...the people from the
colectivo wouldn't let them take more than one on the bus. Anyway...we
had like 30 extra suitcases to deal with. Then we ended up eating hot
dogs cause we hadn't eaten anything all day. We didn't end up going to
bed until like 2:30AM
that night. I love transfers. Let me tell ya. Earlier that day we
played soccer at a field that we rented for two hours. It was fun...and
Hermana Heath scored two goals. Ya buddy! It was a good day... Tuesday we got up at 5:00 so that my comp could be at the terminal at 6:30AM.
Then I was on splits with the other hermanas until that night when I
got on the colectivo and couldn't sleep due to the man next to me
snoring suuuuper loud. On Wednesday
morning I was in the pension of the hermanas in comodoro for about 3
hours...there were 7 hermanas training...we had a great time talking and
toward the end we started stealing each others phones to call people
from our old areas. I got super lucky because Hermana Salazar is
currently in my area in Rawson and Hermana Villela is in my area in
Caleta Olivia so I got to call Mariela, Agustina, and Maxi!!! :) Then
with Hermana Zanuttini we called the familia zampa. It was sooo good to
talk with them. They're all doing great:) At about noon
we went to the offices and met the new missionaries. 5 gringas and 2
latinas. My new companion is Hermana Solorzano from Guatemala. I'm soooo
glad she speaks spanish. As of right now...training is NOT fun...but my
companion is great so we're doing good. We had a looong bus ride
back...somehow I was able to sleep for most of it. Then we worked in our
area the rest of the week. We put 4 new baptismal dates this week and
found two new investigators! I'm super relieved because we lost pretty
much everyone we had last week and the week before. Anywayy...on Saturday
morning we did service in san benito as a zone. We had to clean out a
garage..it was filled with lots of...well...the only word I can come up
with is crap. Yep...it was filled with crap. I'm pretty sure this lady
is a hoarder. There was an opened bag of lays chips from 2008. Puuuucha.
There were also car parts...couches...baby strollers...clothes
everywhere...anything you can think of was in that garage. I impressed
everyone with my ability to carry heavy things. It was actually just
because the Elders never let us do anything so they're always surprised
when they find out we can open a door by ourselves and everything. Who
knew, right?! Hahaha...the Elders are great! Such gentlemen. Hahahah.
Well...that
was my week. I left lots of things out...but that's all I can come up
with right now and my time is running short...like always. But...on Thursday we'll talk! :) I LOVE YOU ALL! MERRY CHRISTMAS! :):):)
