Why hello out there! Sorry I've been kind of terrible at emailing
of late ... It's like my brain goes out to lunch when ever I sit down at
the computer. Oh well, I will repent and give you a few morsels of
excitement from the past few weeks.
The
Zone Leaders put us in charge of planning Zone Pday this transfer, so
there was one point at the end of September when every night I would
come home and grate chalk sticks into dust ... like 120 chalk sticks (my
fingers were not. happy. with me.) But it was all worth it because then
we had an epic HINGHAM NORTH ZONE PAINT FIGHT! It was total chaos with
all the Portuguese elders running around and ignoring any rules that we
had made, but it was so fun! I don't want to exaggerate or anything, but
it was probably the best Zone Pday that has ever happened ever.
(It got kind of intense during the jumping pictures ... )
I'm not sure how many of you are aware of my hopes and dreams of
being an old lady, but ... being an old lady is one of my most
anticipated achievements in life. The knitting, the baking, the
always-wearing-the-hair-in-a-bun. Bliss. I am also really stoked to have
gray hair and this week Sister Jessop FOUND 4 GRAY HAIRS ON MY
HEAD!!!!!!! I almost fainted in joy.
We also
had Zone Conference this week! Zone Conference happens every other
transfer and it's when we get together with a bunch of other
missionaries from the surrounding Zones and the Mission Presidency dumps
buckets of spiritual improvement on us all day. This being my second to
last transfer, this was my final Zone Conference! :.( We always stand
and sing "The Spirit of God" at the end of the meeting, and I can barely
sing two words with out weeping on a normal day, let alone my last Zone
Conference. And then they asked me to say the closing prayer.
#TrainWreck On the plus side, we also got to watch "Meet the Mormons"
while we were there. Wooooooooo movies! (I've always loved the story of
the Candybomber: cute German children + old man + world peace = right up
my alley.)
Love you all!
xoxo,
Sister Gledhill
