Things are definitely getting better with my new
companion. It´s still not super fun though. I´ve been praying a lot
myself. I try to express my gratitude for my new companion in my prayers, and
it´s helping a little. I think one thing I´m going to learn is to be really
productive with our time. If we ever have down-time because of poor planning,
it means I´m stuck trying to find something to do with him. If we can just
work, work, work, then I can focus more on the work and the people than
worrying about having an odd companion.
I got the package. The guy in the office told me it was a
little wierd for him. Some random guy came up handed over the fence an opened
box with my name scribbled on it. Since it was opened already he decided to
look through it. Anyway, I freaked out when I finally had the guitar book.
Whenever I have down time, I end up playing the 3 hymns I have memorized, but
now I´ve been slowly learning other hymns. I´m a lot better than I was when I
was first playing them at home. I don´t really have much time to play though.
Today was about it. Then at night when we get home, IF we get home right at
9:00, I usually have about 15 minutes to play around. The Darth Vader box is a
lot cooler than the chocolates tasted for sure. The crayons are helpful. I finally
have something to mark scriptures with again while I study. Then there was one
more thing I think.
As for the geneaology chart, I think what we have of the
last 6 generations would be cool going back to
my great-great-great grandparents.
Also, I have a few things to email Dallin, but I´m still not
sure if I have his correct email or not.
Here´s a small thought really quick: So Elder Davis hates
this cheese called catupiry, as well as the sound of babies crying. After he
left, I noticed we were all of a sudden eating that cheese with our meals in
the members´ homes, and the neighbors baby started crying a lot again (it had
sort of stopped whining so much when he got there, but I figured it was just
kind of stopped being such a baby, but I guess not). Anyway, the point is, he
doesn´t realize that we ever had this cheese very often with members, or that
the baby used to cry so much. I just wonder how many small little blessings
each of us don´t ever really notice we´ve recieved.
That´s all. And some photos coming too. Nothing special.
One of our investigators has about 14 cats.
That´s homemade lemonade. I made it with beets. It tastes like normal, really good lemonade, just with like this healthy ``dirt´´ flavor. I like it.
Until next Monday.
