Days really do feel like weeks and weeks are feeling like days.. I have a love/hate relationship with time.
Monday
Best: it was such a nice relaxing day! I finally unpacked and cleaned and organized. We did a lot of laying down and being as minimal as possible.
Worst: nothing!
Tuesday
Best: I finally got to meet our super solid friend, Sheila! She's on date to be baptized, but is trying her best to quit smoking.. She sees that satan is tempting her now more than the last times she has tried. But she is cruising so smoothly into the gospel and just taking it all in and loving it! We went in with plans to watch a specific general conference talk, but when we walked in she was already watching it!?!
Worst: we faced a lot of rejection today...
Wednesday
Best: I got to meet the district and I can already tell it's going to be so good with them! There's 11 of us and we're all at different points in our missions. 3 are trainees, 3 are going home in 3 weeks and the rest are either 6 months or 15 months out. It was a little chaotic but so fun! Also, it was Elder Rowleys bday so we made him cupcakes and celebrated.
Worst: less finding time.. And it's snowing..
Thursday
Best: this area does service for an open door ministery food pantry with the Canton elders. It's a huge warehouse with food and boxes that need to be unboxed and bagged and carted, then they load it all in the back of the cars of the receiver. Not a bad gig..
Wost: for the ladt portion of the day I had one of my famous migraine://
Friday
Best: me and Sis Cook are finally getting to be on the friend basis.. We laugh a lot more now and we actually know how to best help each other when we need it. She is such an amazing listener and is also super good at encouraging me not to spend money:'))
Worst: we spend a good hunk of our day weekly planning, personal studying, companion studying, and preparing for our lesson we're teaching the young women's Sunday..
Saturday
Best: we happy 18 months to me!?! I can but also can't believe it's already been this long.. To be honest, I'm really tired and I miss my momma like a lot.. But I know I'm going to miss this when it's over. I love every single moment of this sacred opportunity. I have walked with the Savior, and more than once He has had to carry me. But I will say this, I WILL NOT MISS THIS FREEZING SNOW!!!🙂
Worst: still no luck in the new people area...
Sunday
Best: our night consisted of stopping by less active or inactive members.. After like an hour of stop bys with no success, we finally got let in my an older couple. Come to find out this couple isn't less active, but homebound due to poor health circumstances. But they were the sweetest people! One of the things I know I will miss is being able to go into homes and sit and listen to them. I get to hear all of these wonderful life stories, and they give great advice. These people needed us tonight, and now we get to go back next week and eat and share a message. On the way out they gave us snack packs and food and water bottles so we didn't have to buy any.. Like seriously, the nicest people!
Worst: only 1/2 of the people we had planned to come to church actually did..
Anyone know if eating snow is bad? Because I've done a lot of that this week haha! It was a fast week and I don't know how it already happened? But I'm excited for this next week and hopefully new people to teach!
