to whom it may concern:
yeah i didn't have time to write this last week i figured that a e-mail would work good enough. so yeah this week has been fun with conference and everything else going on. we tracted alot this last week and were able to get 3 new investigators which was way cool. we have both been working really hard and i think that its paying off. the guy that we are helping quit smoking and chewing tabacco is doing pretty good he has had 2 relapses but he said that he doesn't want to smoke anymore which is a good sign and he says that it tastes horrible now. the program that we teach is really cool. but he has alot of motivation to quit he wants to get his patriartical blessing and then make it to the temple. we are like thats some of the greatest motivation that he could have. he was at the priesthood session and both sessions on sunday which was good i think that he liked them alot. i enjoyed them alot too but i realized its really hard to stay awake at them when its really dark in the chapel. oh yeah we just went to our church and there was like 2 other people there so not many people came. its broadcast on tv here too which is cool so not many people wanted to leave there house. but i learned something cool too did you know that there is always one apostle missing and one seventy missing? they are in the old conference center presiding over there. which i did not know and thats cool i think or i think its incase somebody tries to bomb the building or something but yeah thats something new that i learned to answer your questions ok i will watch for my camel bak. and no i didn't get my sleeves mesasured, i didn't get the 20 dollars dad sent me unless it was from last transfer. we tract on average about an hour to an hour and a half everyday. we do alot of service to here so thats fun. we are helping a member finish remodeling a house we raked leaves for like 5 hours this last week at his house. he had a lot of leaves that hadn't been picked up in years. my first week we helped him finish putting the wood down for his floor. like we did with brian's west warren house. that was fun he has alot random corners and edges so its fun to work around those. i love my area here in ardmore its awesome i like the members here too. they are all nice and caring. oh by the way i had some ribs last night which were amazing... and tonight a member is taking us to get all you can eat ribs :) yummy. so i have a request though to help with my diet i would request that nobody sends me and more candy. and if you would like to spoil me send me cash to buy protein or some good food. that would help the most. lets see we cook every once in a while but not often. yes we have a mcdonalds here i'm pretty sure that every town has one in the us. we have a walmart here so we shop there every tuesday.
i don't think that i will have time to write a letter if i do i will but i'm pretty busy today. i'm learning how to play the guitar a little at a members house which is way fun and we are going golfing next tuesday to a course that use to be on the pga :) haha michael. and for free a member is a gm for it. we can play as much as we want with unlimited balls and holes :) jealous?!?! and yes i got my easter box. i'm glad that dad doesn't have to go in for surgery. i have been praying for him every night. let me know when he has too though. what is it for agian? let see that about it for this week. we are teaching and tracting everyday when we can. its way hot around here it was in the mid 80's this last week and with like 70-80% humidity... way hot. well that about it i got to go we have lunch with a member in like 15 min. talk to you next week
