This past week has been crazy!! :) lots of fun has been happening, finding running around and Exchanges... huh? yep that's right!! they sent me with a hearing elder to a deaf area lots of fun! now i had the opportunity to practice my interpreting skills crazy!!! haha! well we been super busy this week! we taught 20 lessons this week which is a new record for us for just starting out!! finding and all! :) So we went to this Less active deaf mans house who is wanting to go to the temple!! we have been preparing him for the temple. Imagine temple prep class for dummies ( you know those books well i could write one by now) how to explain the temple to people who can't hear and have no language skills! LDS temples for dummies! you got it! maybe i'll try that when i get home!! This week we were trying to get the Branch excited for missionary work and get referrals. we did the excitement part, but the referral part is a work in progress!!! haha! deaf are very open to talking but not to committing to anything! ANYTHING!
Ha we got our carpets cleaned this week ooh what a blessing in disguise. we found out that the carpet was originally a grey color not a black color that it appeared to be! ha well now you know the life of a missionaries apartment.
I got bawled out by a deaf lady this week! we were helping her doing some service and mowing her lawn and we weren't doing it right i guess. I wasn't holding the wimpy electric weed eater right, so she got all huffy and puffy, ha i told her she could fo it if she would like. ooh would that be fun to see a deaf lady who recently had back surgery using a walker and mowing the lawn. what a sight! ha so we quickly finished up and come to find out she is that way with everyone! ooh how it must suck to get old! No offense! haha well i gotta be running!! love you all!
