This week has been... a little crazy. On tuesday I got to go back to my old area with my old companion on exchanges it was way sweet! Every one was happy to see me it made me miss that area a little bit. Then on Friday we had zone conference and it was really good! We talked more about the new simplified curriculum. And then Sis Roggia gave me a hair cut. When I walked in i looked over and there were three packages sitting on the counter and one of them had the sticker of Jesus on it so i new it was mine. So i went over to it and all three ended up being mine. So I knew everyone was going to say something about it because i get so many packages so i turned to president and asked him if i could put them in his office and he said why elder you don't want anyone to touch them? And i was like no i just know everyone is going to say something about it because i always get packages and he just laughed and said no everyone needs to know who is the most loved in the mission and he really wouldn't let me put it in there. So of course everyone gave me crap about it. Oh well sucks for them there families don't love them as much as mine does ha ha. Oh and I have gained 5 pounds so that is sweet! Anyways it has been raining A LOT! this week. There is always one week in the month of august where it rains for 7 days straight and everyone says that its going to be this week. In fact our baptism on Saturday was canceled because of the rain. One of the members has this old Volkswagen beetle and so we jumped in it and went to the water side to see if we could still do the baptism. We had to do some off roading and we got stuck once ha ha it was crazy anyways but the water was running way fast and it was really really dirty so we pushed the baptism back to the 20th. We will have like 3 other people getting baptized that day too so it should be a good one. Hope the rain stops by then. Last night this guy from California picked us up and gave us a ride from Grafton to Wellington it was cool talking to him. He is going back to California in 2 weeks he has been here for a month he is from here. He is a math instructor in some university in L.A He said the missionaries are already visiting his house in L.A. But he hasn't had a chance to visit the church yet. Then after he dropped us off we had to walk 10 min to our apartment and so we were running and it was pouring! I was soaked by the time we got home. And then i woke up this morning and there was mold in my shoes it was crazy so i took forever cleaning those out. But this week should be good. Its going to be really focusing on getting this area organized. It is a huge area and there are hundreds of less actives and its just a mess. Anyways should be a good week i hope the rain doesn't get in the way too much. Thanks for all the love and support.
