This week was okay. Elder Hamblin got pretty sick, so it had some boring parts, but I'll go through the whole thing anyway. Tuesday we had our lifelong day of meetings again. They were pretty good. Our role play was drawing a picture of your companion while your back to back with them so you can't see what they're wearing and have to remember. We also had FHE with some investigators that night. One of the senior couples taught the lesson.
Wednesday we had a lesson set up with a returning member, and we showed up, knocked her door, and right as we were leaving she walked up to the door and told us she totally forgot and had other plans now. We rescheduled for the next day. We went to Caesar’s for lunch after that. Then the French elders picked us up and took us to dinner at the church! It was Brother Harding tonight, so it was super fun! He also gave us all matching Halloween ties. When we came home our roommates were here with their Zone Leaders after their exchange. They gave me a letter from Ashley Eyre from 6 months ago... SORRY ASHLEY!!! It's not my fault! But I have it now! Thank you!
Thursday was good. We that lesson with our returning member. We were supposed to have a lesson with R- but she canceled on us because her legs hurt really badly.. That was a bummer because we couldn't meet with her Saturday either because we had to be in at 5 because of Halloween..
Friday was fun. We were outside for a little while during the day but then Elder Hamblin started feeling unwell, so we went in for a bit. Then we went and helped set up our ward party. And we got to stay for the ward party!! Halloween dance!!! It was pretty fun, but I also got some good missionary work done amidst all my dancing. I set up a couple exchanges and lessons, so we're looking good for later on this week. Supposedly the sisters in our ward have a video of some of the elders dancing though.... That needs to be removed from existence.
Anyway, Halloween was really boring. All our scheduled lessons dogged us, so we were out trying to talk to people. Then Hamblin wanted to grab some groceries since we had to stay in that night, so we got that. We hung out with our roommates and had lots of McDonald's and Five Guys. It was pretty good.
Sunday was the same church meeting routine. R- didn't come because of her legs again. It makes me super sad to see that hurting her so much. I think we're going talk about priesthood blessings this week with her. Then we went to Caesar’s after church and that was pretty fun.
Today has been really chill. We ran up to Costco for some groceries. I got a new pillow and I'm so freaking happy. I crawled in bed just to write this email so I could use it. It's a thousand times better than my old lumpy one. I showed the old one to Elder Zollinger and he was like, “this isn't even a pillow! How long have you been sleeping with this??” Well, now it feels like I'm laying on a cloud. Thank you goose down feathers. Then we just hung out at the apartment. I love you all! Have a good week!
