Well, hm. What else is there to talk about? Hm. I did have a
few days since my last email. Not much happened. But I should have pics this
week.
Guess we'll get to pics real quickly. That's an amusing
story. So we had a plugged sink in the bathroom this week. So Elder Flanary and
I set about to fix it. Now, momma, I remember sometimes, before my mission, I
was not good at using my brain. We thought it was just pre-mission folk. I have
come to the conclusion that it is young men in general, regardless of the age.
We found that we had a plastic ball in the drain. We couldn't remove the drain.
The ball was very tight, so we couldn't get anything in to pull it out.
So....we decided to try to burn it out. We poured alcohol down the sink and lit
that up. It didn't work. So instead, we sprayed down the thing with some really
flammable bug spray. Now, with a very enclosed pipe, there is nowhere else for
the flame to shoot. Think about that. But we light up the match and drop it. Of
course, nowhere else to go, the flame shoots straight back out at us. Burned
off most of my arm hair. Hilarious! But, it wasn't good enough to melt the
ball. Fun fact, the burning idea wasn't my idea, although I did have a fun time
going along with it. Next, we found a sword and decided to just try to puncture
the ball. That actually worked!! So, the fire ended up being worthless, but it
was still fun. And we did get the ball out. So success. Several pics
there.
And a pic of our monkey friend. We shook hands with him.
It's not every day you shake hands with a monkey. It was like running into my
twin on my mission. Go figure.
Other than that. Missionary work happened. We have been
having a tough time getting lessons. Don't be confused and think that means
life has been tough. We have been having a good time talking to everyone! It's
great! We also helped someone move their house. And we did some laundry for a
nanay. It's been a good week. But we are still working to get more lessons. The
lessons we did have though were pretty good. We have a lady who is really shy.
She has been talking more and more and came to church again yesterday. Success.
We also have our other brand new investigator that is progressing well. Life is
wonderful!!
Sorry, I forgot my scripture study notes from the week. Must
have been in my excitement to skype my fam. Haha! So next week na lang.
Sorry this is a short email. Lousy, really. But it has not
been long since the last email. And...hehe, I just talked to my fam. Wassup.
So, sorry for the rest of you. Hope you are all doing superb. Have a great
week!
Much love,
Elder Christensen
