I'm not Sure Where to Start!

Hello, all!


So, this week has been great.  There's a bunch of stuff going on, and I'm not sure where to start!

I suppose I'll start with transfers....I'm not being transferred and neither is Sister Davenport.  I'm ok with it, but I think Sis D is struggling just a little since she has already been in the area for 6 months.  But all will be well. 

Today is Sis D's birthday.  She is 22 and keeps saying how OLD she is now.  I want to pounce on her.  Especially when she says it in front of some of the elderly people we visit.  LOL.  Thankfully, she knows them better than I do, so it's not a big deal if she says it. They love her anyway.  Lol.

So, Sister Tanner is coming to replace Sister Brown (same Zone, different district).  I'm nervous, but excited about it.  Oh, and apparently there is another zone being created, while my zone is gaining another district.  It's going to be awesome.  AND GUESS WHAT?!?!?!  They are white washing my last area!  Yeah! Like that area that I JUST whitewashed!  What the junk?!?!?! Lol.  So, Sister Tanner, who took my place in my old area, and Sister Holliday are both leaving that area.  Sister Holliday is going to my frist area. Ok, so I hope all of that made sense.  Good luck if it didn't! :-D

As far as the work goes, it's a challenge at the moment.  We only have a few investigators, and we are trying very hard to get in with the youth in each of our wards.  It seems to me that this area has been so focused on retirement communities (rightly so, since half of the area is the Retirement Community) that we've been missing the teaching pool found within the youth.  Just this week we fond out that there are 3 boys that have been actively attending church and activities and we had NO IDEA!!  Surprises EVERYWHERE!!  WOOT! WOOT!

Mom - so I realized that I sent the wrong memory card home.  Lol.  The one I sent I think was the one with all my MTC pictures and such.  SO the captions I sent were actually for the memory card that I will be sending home today.  Be looking for it!  I'm glad you liked the card and the temple light pictures.  Sister Ellsworth said you responded to the happy birthday picture she sent to you, too.  But did you get the Christmas ones we sent like the week before?

Dad- I hope you get used to the ipad.  I know Apple is such a treacherous company ;-).  oh, and I have thought of you many times when people ask if there's snow in MD.  And I keep hoping that there's not just so that you don't have to go out with mom and Lynz to shovel it.

Lynz - Slacker! Lol.  Just kidding.  I love you and even if you don't write me, you will never be the worst sister in the world.  I won't deny that I am so very disappointed every time I go to the mailbox and there's no letter from you, but you're definitely not the worst sister.  I mean, at least you think of me and bother to send emails.  That's better than I did for our brothers when they were in the field....Lol.

Eric - I hope you feel better!  So, what is going on with school?  What classes are you taking and who are your teachers?  How is work?  Are you working at the writing center again?  Thanks for writing me even that short little note.  I love you! (We will hopefully have two new baptism dates this week!  We've been waiting for the Mom's approval). 

Ok - that's about it!  Love you all!

Love, Sis S.

Well, I suppose that's about it!
