Never a normal week here

7/11/10
Well sounds like a normal week back home, mostly. There is never a normal week here. Our week started out really well and I had high hopes for the week. But Thursday our lessons dropped. No one was home. That continued for Friday and Saturday. We will be trying to get back into it this week.

That's cool about the baptisms in our ward. I never really knew about the missionary work happening in our own ward. The members here are always asking where our investigators are and if we have any at church. That's just so cool. It's nice to have the missionaries over for dinner, especially when they talk! Of course that's what we do! We just talk and get to learn more about the members while they get to know us. Being foreign they always ask what it is like back home. Especially being from Salt Lake.

Drum and bugle corp (Corps Encore at WSU). That stuff I miss seeing.  Amazing sounds and music with a wonderful presentation!

So I got Stu's letter from the 22 of June, about him having just six months left, that means I have six months to my year mark! Then it is down hill from there. Kind of excited and yet not. I know it's still a year and a half away, but we are going to need a bigger rice cooker when I ger home. And you can never tell me that rice isn't a breakfast food. Because it is an every meal food here!

Canoeing (Andrew's trip to Uintas with Craig, etc.). Man I miss doing things in the water! That has been on the list of things I miss since day one! Water...ocean...beach...

Um, one question for Kat, what are you going to school for? I cant remember if you still want to do physical therapy or if you changed to nutrition.

Well, running out of time. Got a lot to get done today! Including laundry, which we do by hand, I dont know if i ever mentioned that or not...
