Dear Family,Hey well i wont have too much to say this week cause we were in the hospital until sunday in the afternoon.. it was super crappy and i was about to go crazy from being stuck in there for soooo long.. but we are out now but my comp has to rest for a week now then we have another appointment with the doctor to see whats up.. but yeah is wasnt fun..
but l forgot to tell yall last week but i had a moment on tues where dad would have told me.. lets use our head for something other then just carrying hair... so anyway if you are gonna cook something in a can like bean are something that is packed tight you can poke a hole in the bottom then open the top, blow and all the stuff comes out without having to use a spoon. anyway i tried to show this other elder the trick.. but i couldnt get a whole in it.. so about two minutes after i had put the oil in the pan i got it.. but the beans fell in the hot oil and it splashed on my arm and it hurt really bad..
it was the smartest thing ive done in my life but i have a pretty cool purple burn mark on my arm now.. i have a pic of it but my this computers are some retardes and wont read my card so i can send pics.. anyway so some of the highlights of last week were eating at mcds three times and hearing the first country song ive heard down here in guat.. then showering in nice showers.. it was crappy though and i had a headache almost the whole time cause when i sit around and dont do anything am in the same room for forever my head hurts.. so it was not a fun week.. also the guy we were gonna baptize is not excited anymore and hasnt come to church.. its crappy cause its hard to find him and we have been in the hospital.. i still dont know my area and the pool of investigators is not good cause we have worked about 6 days this whole change. its hard and cause elder bravo got appendicitis fri night and i used to live with him so i went with his comp back to colombia.. my first area and now the family we found last change are gonna get baptized and also three teenagers i found my third changed and this other kid.. its hard to know that they are doing so well there and that i helped find and teach them and then here i dont have anything.. and if my comp leaves i will practicall have to open up this area cause i still havent been to the far away parts and i dont know the members houses well or the less actives and definitely not the investigadores cause all we have is about 4 or 5 right now.. but we are gonna do divisions this week so i can work here in my area and hopefully get things started again.. hopefully my comp doesnt get sick again or them might send him home.. especially cause they still dont know why he got sick the first or second time.. but yeah.. i bought 12 new ties for in dollars would be about 60 cents a tie.. they are pretty cool and now i have 50.. it was one of the more exciting parts of my week.. haha umm and we raced beds in the hospital to see whose could raise the fastest and the food was pretty good too.. also all the old nasty nurses liked to mess with me cause i am white.. but they did say i speak pretty good spanish so that made me feel good.. umm what else.. a doctor who spoke english and is from here knew about blinn when i told him i was from cstat.. that was kind of weird.. happy bday mom you have almost reached 61 years.. haha and i made a card in the hospital but i have to develop a pic so i havent sent it yet.. well i dont know what else.. i am doing good.. my stomach hurts right now though.. ughh dang guat food.. haha but yeah i wish i could send pics cause i havent for a while and i have some good ones but yall will just have to wait a bit i guess..
well i know this work is really important and that i am suppose to be here in guatemala and its really cool to be a missionary and have everybody look up to you and look to you for help.. i know that this church is true and Jesus Christ is at the head of it and directs it.. i have learned so much during my first eight months out here and am excited to learn more.. thanks for all yalls support and i love yall a ton. keep praying for me and my comp and i praying for yall too.. everyday..well ill write next week but not until weds cause we are going to the temple!! well love yall
