Sorry I haven't sent out a group email in a while... I haven't had a ton of time I didn't think anyone really noticed/read these stinkin' things (thanks for reading them Grandma) But I guess people want to hear about this crazy place so I'll try to email again! So I guess I should talk about my subject line. Every night we end the day with a companionship prayer and then say our personal prayers. We just got done saying our Kasama prayers and we were crawling onto the tops of our beds to say our personal prayers I grabbed my pillow and as soon as I did a little lizard ran out from under it... Sister Tu'akalau had already started her prayers so I had to muffle the little yelp I let out with the same pillow the lizard had made his home. I got him off said my prayers and went to bed. He was at my toes the next morning so I have a new pet lizard... Also doing our laundry is always an adventure. So we have to wash our clothes inside where our faucet is and if you've ever done your laundry by hand you will know everything gets wet quick... so our tile floor gets covered in water and it gets hard to walk around without slipping...as I was rinsing the soap out of our freshly cleaned clothes I reached down to dunk my dress in the water, lost my balance and fell... right into the water... covered in water I just looked at Tu'akalau and we both lost it! I was laughing so hard I couldn't even get out of the water for a solid 4-5 minuets... when I finally got control of myself I got out of the water and finished washing our laundry. That's been the reacquiring lesson for this week. When things slip through and get all messed up you just got to laugh it off and keep going. A good attitude doesn't get rid of the problem, the laundry still doesn't do itself, the language just doesn't come and people don't bring themselves unto Christ but! It makes all those things more bearable and fun! Over an over this week our plans have been messed up but we laugh it off and find something else to do. through this "messed up schedule" we were able to find 14 new investigators! Its not a ton but its much better than we had last week! Moral of the story: Keep laughing and keep going! Ano ba iyan and move on! Mahal Kita! Hope you all have a great week!
Love Sister Baton
