Hot summer

June 14, 2010

How is my beautiful family this week? Hope all is going just wonderful with ya’ll. The mission fare well sounded like fun. I got a letter from Ryan telling me about his mission call, you’ll have to get his address and send it to me. I have his home but not his mission. He was so good in our mission prep class! He really will make a stud of a missionary.

So I have to ruff it sometimes here like with no power and cold showers but not all that often I’m really lucky when it comes to that. One of the senior couples doesn’t have my luck. They haven't had water for like 3 days it was sad to because we had Elder Scott come and they couldn't shower. But they still looked way nice. Some of the Elders have gone like a week or so with our water. (Sisters aren’t in that area anymore luckly!)

p.s. Elder Scott is Amazing!!! We had a meeting for all the full time missionaries so there were only about 40 of us there and they had all the sisters sit in the front. There are only 8 of us so that wasn't hard. They did the meeting like a Sunday school class. Elder Rasband the corm of the 70's president said one of the sisters needs to come up and extended a Baptism commitment for this roll play. No one was going up, I don't even know how it happened but I was up there giving a baptism commitment in front of not only all the missionaries in the whole mission (that alone scares me), Elder Rasband, Elder Powell the area 70 over us, and Elder Scott. Not going to lie I was a little scared. But it went over ok and I went back to me seat and didn't die I was sure I was going to when I was up there. I forgot how hard it was to teach a lesson in English! I kept almost slipping into Armenian the whole time.

Elder Scott was so cool he had us move all the chairs so that we only had like 5 rows and we could all be closer. He also did a question answer session where we could ask advice and really deep questions. I have no doubt that he is an Apostle of the Lord. Hearing him teach and talk like that there is no way he couldn't be. It was also really cool to be able to get into that deep meat of the Gospel with an Apostle in a setting like that. I know that, it was a once in a life time opportunity and I am so grateful for it!

This week has been slower. My Queer was still really sick, (she is doing good now). It’s really hot here!!! They say that August is a beast here... I may not live. LOL no it will be fine as time goes on I get used to the hot and it’s not so bad. I do have the rocking missionary tan lines I’m sporting them early this year! I have the really tan top of the foot, with a white strip where the strap on my shoe covers. Then I have a neck line like you would not believe (all my shirts hit the same place on my arm and neck so I just look ridiculous).

But I’m in Armenia so I don’t mind and I’ll lose it all this winter and get back before I can get tan again so no harm done.

So I should tell you I really wonder about myself some times. lol I got my hand stuck on something new this time; but still just as bad. This time it was to the freezer. It’s been really hot so I bought some ice trays to get some ice (and to make popsicles). But my hand was wet and I was putting it into a really old metal freezer that we let get way to cold. My finger touched the metal and then would not come off!! I had to yell for my comp to hurry and get some warm water and poor it over my hand to get it back up. But I have the worst burn on my hand that I’ve ever had! I had no idea that an old freezer could hurt that much! So now I’m really careful. I really don’t want to know what I’ll get my hand stuck to in my next area!

It’s almost my Birthday, crazy I really didn’t think I would make it to age 22 I don’t really like it! lol I see myself and just think who is that old woman looking back at me! I am excited though I really do love my Birthdays I’m willing to get old to have more of them so what can I do? How is every one this is the birthday months after all. You’ll have to send me pics of all you do.

Have fun love you lots Sister Fergie
