Hey everyone!
Well, only 2 more weeks to go before
I come home. This week was a little tough. We had a lot of appointments made
for the week but almost all of them fell through. At the end of the week we had
less than 10 lessons. So, needless to say we walked a lot this week. But we
still kept at it even though we didn’t have the amount of success we were
hoping for. But that’s happens sometimes I guess. Perhaps it could be that
because I’m getting close to ending, the Lord just wants to test me to see if I
stay strong and work hard until the end. But my companion helped me a lot in
motivating to keep going and visiting houses. But now I just hope that this
next week we will have some more success.
As for Thanksgiving, we didn’t
really do anything here. I just kinda gave a woot for Thanksgiving and that was
it. Seeing as how I’m the only American here, no one else really took it into
importance but that’s all right. I guess we can show our thanks every day in
how we act.
Other than that, this week has been
a mix of on and off cold rains and beating burning bright sun. Kinda weird
weather. Every day I felt like I was just constantly taking off and putting
back on my jacket. Supposedly, it’s a little more dry than it usually is around
this season. A lot of people have told me that here in Espinar, that about this
time of the year, they start to get a bunch of rain. Like days where it’s just
raining all day and all night but we still haven’t seen much.
Well I don’t really have too much to
write for this week seeing as how we didn’t visit too many people and nothing
has really changed. However, on Saturday, we set up the Christmas tree in our
pensionista’s house so that was pretty fun. But that’s about it for me! I’ll be
seeing you guys in a bit!
