So first of all, I don’t really know what to say about grandpa’s dying. It kind of feels like its not even real because I’m so far away and because I wasn’t even there for any of it. Man, I just feel like I missed a lot and I can’t do anything about it. Grandma and Mom, I love you.
Monday we had our interviews with the president and he basically boched every one. but I guess boche isn’t a word you would understand, so “yelled at everyone” would work because the missionaries are lazy that I’m with. But because of it, the week went a whole lot better. We worked a whole lot harder. Still not at the point I want to be but we are definitely doing better. We had 5 people at church Sunday. One of them is named Willy. He is 24 and he has stopped drinking and is working on kicking his girl out of his house because he doesn’t want to marry her and they don’t have kids. So that’s way exciting. And then there is Mayalin. She is an all-star. She just rips right threw everything we give her and asks for more. She is awesome. Then there is Nana and her kids. She is a humble lady with two kids, but the thing is we have to talk to her husband and we haven’t been able to get to him yet.
Today for p-day we played some baseball. It was good. We did some Dominican against American action and of course we got our butts kicked. We won the first game but the second two they just trashed us. But it was perfect because when we finished playing we got to our house and it started poring down rain. And since we didn’t have electricity and running water because of that, we showered up on the roof (haha). That’s always good fun.
School started down here so there are three kids that usually go out with us now can’t. We are working to get members to go out with us now. We only had like 20 some odd lessons with a member this week. lame.
Let’s see what else . . . . There is this girl who is stalking me. She keeps screaming about how she wants my blue eyes every time I see her in the street. Its kind of annoying, but when you got eyes like this what can you say right lol. Besides all that, we have just been working - the usual you know. It is raining a lot these days though. I walk around with an umbrella these days. And mom I don’t use the one you gave me. I lost that one, I’m sorry, but I don’t think it would have really worked anyways. It rains a lot and can get dang windy at the same time. So I have this big heavy duty one. It’s nice.
But hey – that’s about it.
