This week. Let me tell you. First I got my first official wedding invitation from Eleanor! I was so exctied when I saw it! (Mom, she is a friend from College) I think that makes 5 wedding announcements since I have been out. People! You cannot be getting married without me! You can't wait 13 more months?.....ok, yeah that would be hard. But worth it right? Who doesn't want Sister Skeeter at their wedding?
Things here in Goleta have been kind of tricky. Mom remember when I said I was emotionally sound? Well I would make fun of ( kind of) the people who would get super stressed while they are out working. There really isn't much to stress about. You put your faith in the Lord and things will work out as they need to. Well now I understand. While still keeping the faith I am totally stressed. But it will be all over next Sunday. I am giving a 15 minute talk in church next week (which by the way I don't have a topic for which makes it hard) with an RM and then my companion and I are doing an ED-PEP (teaching on how to be a better missionary basically) in district meeting this week. I don't think these people realize how little time I have to study and prepare. It would be ok if these were on different weeks. That would be no problem, but of course the ED-PEP is on something that I am terrible at as a missionary. But that is how it always works. We are never assigned one that we are good at. I swear these things are SO much more for the missionaries teaching it. So I am excited to see what I am going to learn from this but I am worried that I won't have the time to prepare well enough. Guess we will see how this goes! Pray for me!
As for the work, well I really have no clue what to say about that. Its moving bit by bit. We are just waiting for the Lord's timing to kick in now. We are doing all that we can and that is all that He asks of us.
And this week I almost died don't worry. We did some service at someone's house and I don't think I have ever seen so much cat hair and dust collected into one little room. By the end my chest got super tight and breathing became difficult. I took some benadryl before I went, which was smart on my part. But anyway, don't worry I am still alive and just trying to survive in a world where people love cats. Oh the joys of serving a mission!
Well, my time is up already! Love you all! Don't forget about m
