Hey Everybody!
How are you doing today? I'm doing just swell. Its been an interesting week here in chickasha. The weather has been pretty crazy from so cold that i need a heavy coat to i wish i could wear shorts. We had zone conference this week also. That was really good. And of course i had to demonstrate in front of everybody,for some reason i always end up doing that. It went good though. Then we got Elder Jacobs' bike back finally. Then the next day we went out riding and my bike was acting up so i took it to an elder in anadarko he fixed it for me and then we got back and started riding and my companions pedal fell off again. That was a huge blow to him. So not much got done that day. Then after a little while he was better which is good. We saw brandon this week but he kind of ditched us this weekend for some reason oh well were hopefully going to catch him before he leaves again. Hes not baptized... yet. Were still working on the smoking thing, thats basically his only hold up. We found our investigator but we lost her again. She wasn't there for an appointment and then didn't come to church and wasn't there that night. So shes lost again and wont answer the phone, but hopefully we can get in contact with her again. Shes ready to be baptized she just needs to start coming to church. Other then that its been about the same. I have a little bit of a cold but i've been taking alot of vitamin c so thats helping out. Lets see to answer some of your questions. I cut my own hair. Transfers are on the 30th of march. Yeah i liked the valentines box that was fun. And yes i cleaned and yes i got the sheets and towel. Thats about it we are going to play some snooker today and then play some games i think. I'm not quite sure yet but thats kind of fun for a little while not having stuff that you NEED to do. We have a baptism not this week but the next one so hopefully everythings going good with that so we can baptize him. Well i guess its on the dad he just needs to stop smoking so that he can baptize him, But i guess thats easier said then done. I'm glad that the van is gone and i like the journey its better then the van so yeah. How do you guys like it? Hopefully dads back gets feeling better. I had some problems with my back a while ago but it passed after a week or 2 so hopefully it will for him too. Well were late off today so i'll talk to you guys later have a good week!
Love ya
