"My week has been alright. Veronica dropped us... idk if i told you that yet or not but ya. She wanted to go to her church, 'Avangelica', again. that was a little rough. Also, the family Mené got sick, so they wern´t able to go to church this week and we haven´t been able to see them but we made a date with them for wednesday! woooot!
We also have been working with Carlos this week quite a lot too. we gave him the law or chastity lesson, and it was the funniest thing of my life! Ok, so, he´s like 75, and we thought he was married to the woman who was taking care of him (he has some problems since his car accident), but i guess he isn´t. so we were giving him the lesson and telling about the importance of being legally married before baptism, and he told us how he wants to get married to the woman who was taking care of him there. he has two woman in his life. one takes care of him durring the weekdays (which is the one he wanted to get married to), and the other who takes care of him on the weekends- and he just moves from house to house each week. so he calls in the one he wants to marry and asks her to get married and she says 'ni hayí!' which is like saying 'of course not you crazy fool!' haha it was so awkward cause then she went on talking about other stuff and we were all just sitting there busting up laughing, even Carlos, because she just went off and seemed embarrassed lol. we were also there with a member that is close friends with him, and he was really dying of laughter! so she left after. Then he turns to us and just says that it´s all good, because he can ask the other woman now that he knows this one doesn´t want to get married to him. haha!! it doesn't seem as funny when I write it.... you really had to be there and hear the lady go off on the man... it was soooooo funny! but all silliness aside, he really is trying to change his life cause he really wants to be cleansed from all the sins from before which is GREAT! we are so happy for his faith and his desire! so we´ll see what happens with him! but ya, that´s the highlight of this week.
Nothing too exciting but we´re still working hard! i had i spiritual thougth i was going to share but i left my english scriptures in the appartment so i don´t have my paper... dang.. next week will be more spiritual haha. but ya. I also got a letter from my coworkers at PF (Pizza Factory) today!!!!!!! A real letter with my friends who wrote letters to me! I almost cried... ALMOST... well, i can´t lie, i´m a missionary... i teared up lol so i wanted to say thanks for giving them my address! that really made my day! it reminded me of home haha. but ya. love you guys tonnnnnnns! i´m praying for you guys always! les amooooooooooooooo! besitos!

I was once again online at the same time she was hahaha so we were able to email back and forth a couple times before her time was up. Most of it was joking around and other random stuff... but I thought I'd include this bit so that everyone will keep her in your prayers, especially her health!:
"I felt like i was going to die the other week haha i got sick again lol it was sort of not good. i had to go back to our apartment and i slept for the rest of the day, and half the next lol headache, wanting to throwup, weak body, fever- but ya i´m feeling better today. still have a headache, but it´s not as bad and we still have to work! at least it´s pday today though! ya, i got the letter from PF and i was like ahhhhhhh! everyone here knows how much i love the people at PF, so right when the letter came they gave it to me. i was soooo happy! it was a little bit of home (lord of the rings reference)."
Luckily, I was able to remind her about the DoTerra Oils that we sent her with. She had totally forgotten about them and said she was going to rush home and use them! Hahaha. Please continue to pray and keep her in your thoughts!
