Strong Finish

howdy everybody.


it has just come to my attention that i only have one week left of my mission. i kind of feel like someone just punched me in the stomach or like i ate too much chile or something. i don't know what happened. i had 18 months to go and now all of the sudden they are gone.

this should be a good week. we are getting some mini-missionaries again for the week, we're picking them up today at 4:45 and they'll just be out with us all week. i guess god wanted to make sure i wasn't sleeping my last week away or something. had to keep me on my toes. we have zone conference on wednesday, and then two baptisms this weekend (francisco's got postponed for a week) so it should be a good ending. victor is going to be baptizing his brother luis, so that will be really neat.

did i even tell you all last week that sister martinez got transferred? it all happened so suddenly. now i have a companion named sister lichfield and she is so stinking cute. we clicked right away and have been having a blast. i'll get to see sister martinez at zone conference this week. she went to my old area in brownsville.

the heat index was at like 115 this week. they told nobody to go outside. apparently there's all these fires and crazy stuff too. all i know is the second i walk out the door i feel like i just got out of the shower, only it's my own sweat. nasty.

random thing of the week: we saw a coyote on our morning run the other day. that was pretty intense and we were afraid it was going to chase us.. but it ran away. anyway. i guess that's it. who knows if i will even email next week. "this could be the last blog.." oh snap i just remembered the funniest youtube video ever.

well. keep it real, everybody. see you soon, i guess.

love,

me
