Well this has been a crazy week.
Transfer call summary:
Early in the week: "Transfer calls will be on Friday!'
Later: "Actually we aren't sure when they will happen, but you will know transfer calls by Sunday."
Friday: "They might happen next Friday."
Sunday: "Oh that's wierd, it's not happening today, we thought it might happen today."
Tuesday dinner time: I get an email telling me I'm a sister training leader (female bigshot person). We don't worry about it too much because if transfer calls happen they will prob happen Wednesday.
Tuesday at 9:30pm: "HEY EVERYONE IT'S HAPPENING, IT'S HAPPENING TONIGHT!"
Tuesday at 10:27pm: "Actually they might not happen tonight...leave your sound on?"
Tuesday at 10:45pm: -phone rings with transfer calls news-
Few minutes later: -phone rings with transfer call news because it's a weird week and we were in two different districts.
TRANSFER NEWS: I am going to be an STL(Sister Training Leader, a small bigshot) with Sister Evans (ya'll don't know her) and will be over North Marion and Woodburn 1st. We moved on Friday . Here's the rundown on my new area.
Friday we had transfers and we did a TON of driving, and had to pick up other people. The Allens in our ward dropped of balloons, the Relief Society President dropped of food (they cleared out the apartment a week before they came because there was a chance it might be empty for a few months.)
Saturday we watched 6 hours of General Conference. Sunday we watched 4 hours of General Conference and had a 1.5 hour round trip to Albany to drop off stuff. GENERAL CONFERENCE WAS AWESOME. Love the spirit that comes from watching conference and reviewing notes and the talks afterwards. SO GREAT.
Monday (today) we had P-day. Our car got towed because we came to a new area, got a different car, and the parking permit sticker wasn't transferred to our car. So that occupied most of the day. Now we have notes ALL OVER the apartment and notes to make sure the car has the parking sticker. Tonight we have a mission bigshot conference over video call.
So another words, tomorrow is really the day we will actually be able to get our area running and reach out to everyone. after FOUR days. Life is crazy.
Sister Evans is cool. She just came from being with Sister Orton, one of my past companions. Also before transfer calls, it was super fun because I was training Sister Rogers for a week. She is awesome, it was so fun to be with her for a while! I just kinda power hosed her with information. Her brain didn't explode so that was good. Also now I'm not in Dayton and Mac YSA anymore, sad life. But here's is gonna be fun too.
Back in Dayton we got a new office chair, so much nicer than what we had. Also back in Dayton we had an ant attack so we mixed powdered sugar and baking soda or powder and watched them explode. That was fun. (Mom's comment: definitely a Brace type activity)
Also I apparently love using the word also. But anyway, I just love life and sharing the joy of the gospel with people and the fun stuff of missionary work and the hard stuff of missionary work. I just love everything.
Hope ya'll are doing well. Check out ComeUntoChrist.org to look at the conference talks and look at HearHim.org to look at more ways to follow God and Jesus Christ and apply their teachings into your life. It's awesome.
