Hey everybody!
So. First thing's first. I get to call home on Sunday!! WOOT!!! Now. My
Ward meets at 10:00am so it seems that I go to the same church as my
family! Cool eh? We have a missionary coorolation meeting after church,
and i can definitely be home by 3:00 my time (2:00 yours) and give you a
call then. Sound good?? Awesome. So that's that. Also... I really just
want to talk to my family... I think if any of my friends were there, it
would be kinda difficult... Which really is lame, but I was thinking
about it, and i really dont think i wanna see what kind of an effect
talking to my friends on the phone would have on me... So just in case
there were any plans of people coming over to my parents home to talk to
me... I'm sorry but I'm veto-ing that decision so i can continue to
remain not trunky. :) Sorry.. but thank you... and Grandma Dyer... you
can call after 9:00pm because I'll definitely be home by then. :)
Also... Mom... You can totally make that dress for me. hahaha... I'll
wear it. But i dunno what color... Purple?? Red??... blech.. I dunno.. A
dress that's a bright color doesn't really seem that appropriate... but
whatev's... This time... and ONLY this time, I'll let you choose the
fabric... maybe you should take Ian with you to consult or something. He
know's what I'd wear. haha..That's right Ian... you have to go to the
fabric store with mom just once. and as long as mom makes the short
sleeved dress, it's all good. Thank you!!!!!!
So. This morning we went with a few Elders and a couple members to go
frisbee golfing. It was alright... but I really just wanted to play
ultimate... frisbee golf isn't nearly as exciting... However... Remember
when i said there was a guy i went to EFY with who lives in Memphis??
Well... He came to Little Rock to play frisbee with us. haha. But we had
no idea that we were gonna see eachother. He only came because his best
friend did too. haha!! Point is... I totally had an EFY reunion! This
guy, Rod, was in my group and everything in 2003!!! and now he's married
and still lives in Memphis, but decided to come visit his best friend
today who just happened to be coming with us to frisbee golf. small
world!!
So remember how i said i got a haircut last week?? Well... Two days
after that, my straightener died, and i almost cried... it was a sad
moment... so as i usually do... I go to a store and buy a new one, still
bitter that my old one died... haha. But this time I went to a salon
supply store an bought a really good straightener. haha... *thanks
dad...* dont worry though.. it wasn't THAT expensive.
And thank you for sending me those runners.. not that i got them yet..
but i'm excited. Right now I'm running in my shoes i got in Vancouver
with Monie. My hulk shoes. haha... They work fine.. but runners are
lighter and better for you know... running.. hahaha... and Dad... in the
States they call them running shoes, not sneakers... well... at least
Sis Zarbock calls them running shoes... haha.. Sidenote... when we were
walking to our tracting area yesterday, I taught her all the Provinces
and Territories. haha. I was proud.
We got 6 new investigators last week!!! It was crazy!!! I really think
its because well... A) the Lord is on our side... but also B) Sis
Zarbock has this amazing talent of being able to talk to anybody about
anything and not having it be awkward at all... It's amazing... yeesh...
Hopefully I'll pick up that skill by the time she goes home in a week
and a half... AAAAAHHHHH!!!!!!! TRANSFERS ARE A WEEK AND A HALF
AWAY!!!!!!! And this time they have to close 2 Sister areas because
there's 3 going home this one!!! and I cant even say Maumelle is safe,
because this is an area that the Elders can no problem take over...
We'll see... Maybe I'll end up in Tennessee! haha... Not likely, but you
never know.
Also.. Congratulations Clarke and Cecelia for graduating!!!! I have a
brother and a sister-in-law both with University Degrees. That's pretty
awesome.
Yeah... Thank you for everything. I really appreciate your prayers and
your support. The Church is true everyone. Go spread the word!
Love you!!
