well this week went by super super fast!!! i could not believe it on saturday i thought it was wednesday. time has just been flying and we are doing so many great things that i cant even keep track of the time or the things we are doing. i swear there is never enough time to do it all.
i am suprised it was such a blow out with utah and tcu. but that is an interesting little game and things that happened. i hope tcu and boise state play in the national title game. i cant believe it about hamiliton. i am totally shocked and amazed. kinda sad to be honest also. i heard some things from some people. but never thought it would become like this. i guess the alta program will be going down the drain for a little bit then. which is really sad. but oh well things happen sometimes i guess. and to lisa that is fine if sean and lindsey are wearing my clothes and stuff. all they are doing is collecting dust and stuff in my room. just my important things i would prefer them not to wear but i dont think they even would anyways. but it is all good, im not using them and when i get home i will need new clothes anyways and i can wear seans to maybe.... i thought the iggs and eggs joke was funny. its true though, and super funny. sean will accept it someday haha
so this week, i think i worked with my comp in our area together for about 1 hour in the whole week. we had divisions and meeting in mendoza and had to help other areas and stuff. but it was still good. we had good success anyways in the area. and we went with a member, a return missionary who gave us a reference to some of her old neighbors and so we went with her to teach them. and after the opening prayer we asked if you knew you could live with your family forever and see them again after this life what would your reaction be.... and the head of the house broke into tears and said he would be happy and do anything cause his wife passed away six years ago and has felt so lonely, and needs god in his life to help and accompañar him in all the things he is doing and in his daily life. and wants to be with his wife and his kids again. way powerful lesson and started off great. this return missionary is amazing. she is the bomb helps us so much and just gives references like crazy and is totally involved in the work still. and she is not even in our barrio. so that is even more awesome with all that she is doing for us.
thanks a ton dad for the advice on the leadership and help i can give to the zone, i will use some of that stuff tonight in our zone meeting and in helping the district leaders in there district meetings tonight. i am super excited for the zone and the things we can do. we had some little problems with some elders but we fixed them and got things all going well and i think we will be on the same path now and headed for the same success that we want and konw we can have. president is very excited also and expect big things to be coming from us here.
yesterday we had a hard storm of viento zonda. which is wind that blows like 60mph and is SUPER hot!!!! it was like 42 degrees celcius and then with the wind it was like 50. i about died!!!! i have never been so hot in my life. it was so hot at night sleeping that my nose started to bleed and like wouldnt stop i swear. it has been super hot. it is like i am working in lake powell in the middle of july but it is not even the time for the hottest temperature here yet. but i am loving it!!! its fun and just such a good experience. the girls dont have like any clothes on here as it is and in this weather its less. everyone thinks we are crazy walking in ties and long pants and stuff it is great. but i am getting pretty tan i think and is doing good. but all is going well. thanks for all the prayers. that is crazy that i am the only missionary in the ward tell everyone hi and thanks for all they are doing it is appreciated, and i hope it continues. i am glad everyone knows me and stuff, easier to get started on dating after the mission haha i dont know anyone especially girls, they all are getting married!!! hahaha but seriously thanks for everything.
