Well.. Another week in the life of me. I guess this was really kinda my last real week that I'll have. This week we have thanksgiving and next week will be a bunch of packing and remembering what I did for 2 years... Probably going to buy a couple boxes of tissues and a ton of ice cream for that week. Hmm..

This week we have thanksgiving and next week will be a bunch of packing and remembering what I did for 2 years... Probably going to buy a couple boxes of tissues and a ton of ice cream for that week. Hmm..
Well this week I got sick. I guess when you are told to give "Your heart might mind and soul" to the work, I also gave my voice. I'm literally pretty speechless right now. Can't really say much. But I did do some testifying even in my raspy voice.
We had to stay in a couple of days because I was running a fever and coughing up a lung. Probably Ebola. But just to be clear. It wasn't. The last thing that I would want is some gov. agent reading this and coming to put me in quarentine so that I can't go home in 16 days. I would much rather watch the Seinfeld episode of the bubble boy then live it.
We did have a family that was supposed to get baptized this week on saturday. But the moved on us all the sudden. I have no doubt that one day they will get baptized, but it just wasn't the right time or the right place. Really neat family. I am proud of them. I'll always be the 12th missionary in their God Squad. hahaha
I did lose my planner this week. It poured! cats and dogs for probably close to 2 whole days. It was unbelievable. So much water dumping down on us. I think when I jumped out of the car the planner fell and washed down the street. sad day. Another sad thing was Elder Lambert who lives with us got soaked too.. Just one wet little Elder.. He came home took off his jacket that had been soaked through and took out his planner that was completely filled with water and put it on top of the toaster to dry out. Then. Outta habit he turned the toaster on, igniting the planner after a minute. The fire was very literal in our apartment that day. Luckily Elder Jackson in a heroic effort grabbed the flaming planner from the brave little toaster and flung it into the kitchen sink. Turning the nozzle to full blast and extinguishing the fire. He had no care for his own hand. only the care of the entire apartment complex that we lived in. There was no damage at all to anything in the apartment.
On that note I signed up for an English writing class at BYU I this week along with a Church History, American History, How to make a habitable planet, and marriage prep. Lol jk. That class was full, so I took Economics instead. Fair trade off eh?
Hmm.. Church on Sunday a lady came up and asked me what I wanted to have for my last dessert at her house. Cheesecake. For sure, any day. I love me some cheesecake. Take that anyday. It's getting super real how close it is to ending. I mean next week will probably be my last real email home.
So here ya go, I absolutely love this gospel. 100% all in. I can't believe how much of apart of me it has become. I wouldn't say I do everything perfect. For example, Elder Kohlhase slammed my finger in the hood of car this week. I did say a couple of words that rhyme with yam and thought some very unpleasant things toward him and the car for a second, but despite making mistakes I still know and will always be grateful for the church, and the Savior Jesus Christ.
Remember who are and what He stands for!
