West Valley City’s grand!
It's still the same!
We finally got rain this week!
It's been great!
A week of scares!
On Tuesday we went to go visit Wanda.
Wanda’s a 92-year-old lady who looks and
acts like she’s 60-years-old.
She is always up and about.
Monday night she had a little Vertigo
spell and fell and broke a few ribs.
We went to go visit with her.
Her daughter, Bonnie, fixed us lunch so
we were eating, talking and laughing.
For whatever reason I was staring at the
window and all of a sudden a huge black bird flew right into the window!
It was so funny!
It was like one of those Windex
commercials.
Now get ready for the funny story of the
week!
We were in the church doing our online
stuff and my companion needed to use the restroom.
Well…
…I followed her into the restroom!
I wanted to scare her so I set my iPad up
to record her and hid in a little alcove in the corner.
I waited quietly for her to come out of
the stall.
I hear the toilet flush, the sink turn on…
…and I was ready.
I see her shadow coming around the corner
and I lunged myself out at her!
I grabbed her!
I shook her!
I roared, “RAWR!” as loud as I possibly
could!
Well…
…it would have really been funny if it
had been my companion.
It was a complete and totally stranger!
She did not find humor in it at all.
She slammed herself against the wall and
was so terrified that she couldn't even speak.
Her eyes filled up with tears.
I apologized profusely and she squeaked
out an, “It’s okay.” and pushed me to the side.
She walked out of the bathroom almost in
tears.
Then my companion walks out of the stall and
stares at me like I’m crazy.
I try and act cool and ask her if she
heard anything...
…she replied, "I heard it all!"
I died laughing!
So my ‘jimmy cricket’ really got to me
and I deleted the video.
The lady saw that I had recorded the whole
thing.
Oh my gosh!
I felt so bad!
What I learned from this experience is
that you always need to check the restrooms before you jump out and scare
people because not everyone thinks it’s funny.
My bad.
It really has been a great week though!
We got to hear Sister Wendy Nelson talk!
She’s amazing!
I got to see Sister Joseph!
TWICE!
I sometimes on occasion wear my clothes
backwards and inside out and I may or may not attend meetings and teach people
without realizing it.
The struggle is real!
A little sweet lady thought she was being
shot at when we sitting on her porch visiting with her.
It was just fireworks going off but she
was jumping out of her seat ready to take cover.
I won't lie…
…I laughed as hard as I did over the bird
flying into the window and Bonnie’s and Wanda’s house!
It's poured this week!
We were stuck in the rain for three hours
without umbrellas.
We got a little wet!
I may or may not have — okay I did — fall
right to the ground while walking and talking to my companion.
There was another time this week where I
was teaching a 9-year-old and I whipped a picture and was explaining it
to him and telling him the story behind it.
Awkwardly he said, “Your telling
the wrong story."
I was telling him about Noah and his Ark
while showing him a picture of Lehi and his family when they were on a boat.
Oops!
I hate that it gets so dark early in the
day.
I hate the dark!
I think everyone’s out to kidnap me.
That’s about it for now!
The work's great!
Follow my missionary blog…
…I'm better at sharing my experiences
there!
Being a missionary's fun!
I have met so many wonderful people!
I just love this gospel!
I miss you all!
Thanks for all that you do for me!
