Today was fun, we didn't have water to wash clothes, so that
gave us another 4 hours to kill... spent most of it doing our nails, watching
Preach My Gospel videos, and chilling and talking. Also talked to the landlady,
and she'll try to get someone over here to check the water lines tomorrow.
Went and wrote our families, didn't buy food as we might
have cambios, so it's best to wait until Wednesday or Thursday when everything's
settled to buy a bunch of food for the week. But, we did go clothes shopping! I
bought 2 skirts for 70 lemps, or about $3.50, and the lady threw in a shirt for
free! Sweet! There are like a bajillion places that sell clothes and most
things go for about a dollar or two each. Pretty much all of it is used, but you
can always find stuff in really good condition. Hna Rosas also bought a skirt
and the free shirt as well, so we were pretty happy with our purchases.
We then had an early dinner with the elderes of Santa Cruz and Yojoa at
President Flores's house (as they helped move the mother of Pres Flores into
her house today. E Olivas surprised me when he
put his face up to our window to announce their arrival... goofball). He had seen my little AlphaSmart when we were
writing today, and thought it was pretty neat, so he asked about it as we were
eating. I pulled it out and showed everyone my super awesome tech, the elderes
got very excited and are seriously gonna ask their families to send them one
for Christmas. They all took turns passing it around and typing and turning it
off and on and stuff... it was quite funny, actually, Hna Rosas and I enjoyed
ourselves watching them get all excited and start envisioning how they could
write in their journals so much faster and more often with it, instead of just
once a week. I should have gotten a video of the whole scene, Elderes Roldan,
Hess, Olivas and Pocock all typing away and exploring around on my AlphaSmart.
They're good guys, and good missionaries.
From there were ran back home and got ready to go, went over
and picked up an investigator to bring him to a Family Home Evening with a
member family. Everything went really well, and we dropped him back off and we
got home.
We were informed that Hna Rosas has cambios, I'll stay here
in Santa Cruz .
So we planned our day for tomorrow, took a 2 gallon shower, and are getting
ready for bed!
