We are here at the church. The guys are playing basketball. This week was good. We did a lot of visits – a lot of contacting. It snowed a couple days – 2 or 3 times. It actually stuck, which is heavy snow for Spain.
Highlights of this week and a half. Elder Fletcher and I are getting along pretty good. He is a funny guy in the mornings. For example, this morning someone “ding-dong ditched” our piso and he wanted to run downstairs and go after him. It's best if I don't talk to him in the morning. But, once its study time, he's okay. He's a funny guy.
I was sick a couple of days. I didn't wear enough layers when it was snowing. I've been getting sick a lot lately. It's kind of annoying.
Tuesday we visited everyone in the branch. We had 3 lessons set up and we ended up running into all the members and we visited with all of them. Wednesday we had district meeting and it took us FOREVER to get back. Normally after district meeting we get back around 3:30, but this time we got back around 7. It was kind of ridiculous – everything went bad. The bus left later then we thought it was going to. Then there was a car accident and when we got to the bus station to go to Segovia, the bus was full and we had to wait an hour and a half for the next one. Then its another hour ride. It was ridiculous! We didn't get much done Wednesday because of that.
Thursday we went and visited someone named Iluminada. She is really cool and we are trying to teach her. Her mom was taught by some sister missionaries awhile ago. She made us some delicious Dominican food. I loved it! It was really good. She is awesome! She comes to our English classes. She can write and read English all day, but when it comes to speaking English, it is really hard for her. So we are helping her with that. She is also letting us teach her a little bit about the gospel and we are trying to turn that into something because she is very cool.
Other than that, not much is going on. Elder Fletcher goes home a transfer before me and sometimes he talks like he doesn't have much time and then that makes me feel like I don't have much time. But, I still have six months, so I have plenty of time.
Hope everything is going well – loved getting all the letters. I was thinking of Melissa on Friday. She is like 15 or 14? Sorry – I don't remember – I just know she's getting too old and and she should be younger.
Well, you guys take care. You are awesome!
