Elder Ethingotn

haha i cant even handle that fact that people are starting to come home! haah its just blowing my mind. going by the amount of time that i have been in this sector, if you double that time, i will have been home for a week haah i literaly dont comprehendo how time is going by so fast!! haha that drink place sound kinda awesome! DRINKING AND DRIVING IS A CRIME KIDS!!!!!! and get me a strawberry shortcake!!

haha im so excited to swim. its goign to be awesome!!

so this week was really kind of interesting!! so to start of we had interchanges with some elder and i was with the first english elder that i ever met in the mission! his name is elder hansen (typical gringo name haha but at least the people can say his name! a lot dont even try with mine!) and so we got work for a little and it took us 2 hours to just change comps because of traffic SUCH A WASTE OF TIME! haha and so that was a fun change and the wednesday my comp got sick with what i had 2 weeks ago and so we had to be in the pension for wednesday and thursday! i was able to read everthing that you guys sent me adn it was really good! the talk about courage by the prophet was really good and also the sleeping during the restoration haha that one was seriously what i needed to kinda wake myself up.,,,,,,... haha get it wake my self up.... and you gave me a talk about not sleeping........KNEE SLAPPER!!!

we also had a meeting on friday with pres his wife and the asistents and it was really good! the spirit was way strong and really it was really fun to be able to be in that meeting. that is honestly one of my favorite things to about being a zone leader is that we can have these meetings! its such a blessing! DE VERDAD!! 

then lo and behold on saturday my sickness came back!

so i have been in the bathroom again and now im going go to the doctors appointment this time when i get one schedueled. haha its really annoying to have to be worried about it all the time! honestly its one of the most stressful things that has happened in my mission! haha its a joke! but i ddi have a cool experience yesterday! so i was really tired yesterday and just before we left i said a prayer and asked that i could be good enough to work till the end of the day with out problems so that we could actually work. and guess what!? i was totally fine for 6 hours of working and we taught 2 lessons and it was a pretty good day and when i was turing the key to the house my prayer had been answered and i was immediatley called to the bathroom again!! im doing good and i know that the Lord is goign to allow me to do what he really need me to do and i just need to believe in Him. 

it was a good week :)

love you guys and i will see you all at 8 oclock  on sunday! we have changes this week but while we were talking to president on friday he may or may not have told me and my comp that we will both be staying! haha so i doint think im going to be changing but who knows what will happen!! i will call you guys without fail at 8 on sunday that is for sure!! l

love you guys!!
