So this week I wrote everything down that I wanted to
tell y'all so I wouldn't forget! Hopefully, this email will actually
have something worth reading. Anyway, this week has been so packed full
of random things happening. Fun is happening in Borger (FINALLY)! We
went on exchanges this week and Sister Affleck came to Borger with me
for the day. We had so much fun, laughed a ton, set 5 baptismal dates,
and had a lesson at Braums. It was a busy 24 hours, that's for sure.
Plus, she doesn't speak a lick of spanish, so I taught 100% of the
spanish lessons. Plus, never did I ever get lost. NOT ONCE. Hallelujah
to that. I was so paranoid that I would. Me and Sister Ogles had driving
privileges switched so I can keep getting to know the area in case she
gets transferred. And just my luck, a snowstorm rolled in the next day
and I got stuck relearning how to drive in the snow. I may have given
Sister Ogles a few heart attacks, but we're alive!
I
finally convinced Sister Ogles to go to the doctor this week...it's our
first counselor in the bishopric, so it was a little awkward, but they
fit us in quick! He thought she had mono hahaha he would not let it go
either, because the idea of a missionary with mono is just wrong. But it
came back negative...no idea what's wrong, but we'll keep working
anyway!
We had dinner with a member this week
and she is the epitome of mom, but like 100% more intense. She has this
crazy huge garden, pigs, chickens, all of it. And she loves music and I
could just go on but there's no time. Anyway, it just felt a little
homey this week with her. I think mom and her will be best friends. Too
bad she doesn't use Facebook...that's like the one difference. I also
got albondigas this week! FINALLY SOME HISPANIC FOOD. It is my fave and I
just about died when they brought it out to us. And it was at the end
of probably the worst and coldest bike day of my life. Such a blessing.
While we were setting the table that night, her son came up behind me
and just lifted up my skirt hahaha...so awkward. Luckily I had on
tights, but that doesn't do much!
Our
investigators are doing well. They are progressing! Progression in
Borger is way different from other area's definitions, but it is still great:) And people I would have never expected to progress are doing so
well. Just keep praying for them. "Anti" is big out here, and it is so
heartbreaking when that happens!
Also, last
night while we were driving home, there were these dogs just running
around all the cars and we couldn't move for a good 30 seconds...they
wouldn't leave! No idea where they came from or where they were headed,
but they were super happy and it was adorable.
Okay, I have to go, but I hope y'all have a great week! Love you!!
