Annnnnnd Go!

Ok so it's Apri first, the start of a very busy month. We decided to get the month off right and go in service this morning. So we set the alarm and head to bed. I proceed to watch the clock hit 1, 2, 3 and finally at 4 i doze off only to wake up again at 5. I finally go back to sleep and wake up to realize that the alarm did not go off. I jump out of bed, have a quick cold shower ( our hot water has not worked for about 3 week now) grab my bag and we run out the door. I sure hope this is not a sign of what is to come this month. Anyway we make it to the group but no one is there. A few min. later a few more show up and we realize the group is waiting down the road. I was sure there was going to be big group out this morning seeing as almost all of the congregation is pioneering but there was only 9 of us and 5 of them were going on studies. So it's down to Levi and i and 2 other sisters and of course they get paired off and levi and i get paired off. Well it's been awhile since we have had a chance to work together seeing as we have always been with someone fluent in Spanish but we figure why not, we can do this. So off we go into the territory praying for a little extra holy spirit. Well i think we did pretty good and it helps a lot that everyone is very patient.

We got home and thought we would stop by and pick up the key to our new house but i guess they are just finishing painting it today so no keys till tomorrow. Surprise, surprise. Nothing is ever ready when they say it will be here. It's a big lesson in patience when you live here. Oh well good reason to go home and have a nap.

But now i have to tell you about this visitor that has been coming to all the meetings. As much as we all love to have new ones at the hall, this one just will not be quiet. Talk about a distraction. We all know when he shows and every ones eyes go straight to him sitting on the window. Yup he's a cricket. Hehe. But for real every meeting this cricket shows up and sits in the window and is so loud that he drowns out the speaker. No mater how many times you shew him away, he just keep coming back.

You can sure tell that winter is over here. It has been so hot the last few days. I did laundry yesterday and it dried within an hour. I don't think it's ever dried that fast. Needless to say i'm kinda looking forward to coming home and feeling a little cold. I know i'm crazy right. haha. Anyway i am really excited to come home see everyone. It's only 3 weeks away and we'll be in Alberta.
