Today, today, today...fun times. Went a-hospitaling and
a-officing and then again went a-hospitaling, and taught 2 lessons...today was
wonderful.
It really is fun on the more administrative side of things,
and I enjoy being Hna Robles's companion with all my being (she really is
superb, I wish all of you could meet her!)... it just cracks me up how the
nurse is "the nurse," but then is also supposed to be a full-time
proselyting missionary...I think we manage to accomplish the same ends, just
with different means and timetables. It just makes me laugh everyday. Poor
little sick missionaries, still need someone to help take care of them. Two of the newbies (E
Pieper and Hna Velasquez) were having trouble with their feet and
ankles being swollen, so Pres is a little concerned about that. It's a little hard for the gringos because we
can walk and walk and walk all we want before our missions to help our bodies
get used to it, but then we're gonna sit in a classroom for the next 6 weeks
for like, 12 hours a day, so there's not much walking involved. Hna Robles
thought that was sad and that we should be able to walk more. But, notwithstanding, our little newbies are
quite the troopers with wonderful trainers, so I'm actually quite happy for
them. E Pieper is just so darn good at
rebounding from setbacks and is always smiling (even when he has no idea what's
happening -- which is most of the time), and Hna Velasquez is a darling
sweetheart, I love her! This is a really good group, I look forward to serving
with them.
