Transfers are Coming!

It's been a fun week! Transfers are this coming Thursday, and no one knows what to expect. President Nilsen keeps us all on our toes! We heard a rumor that he's going to start keeping missionaries in their areas for an entire year! I think it's just a rumor -- but I will let you know next Monday where I'm at!

B came to church this week, and he brought his best friend C! We were so excited. Also, he just started reading Harry Potter. I'm trying to convince him to read Harry Potter and The Book of Mormon (not to be confused with Harry Potter and the Book of Mormon). That's hard, though, especially at age 11. I think I would have chosen Harry Potter as well.

Funny story. Sister L. is super paranoid of the trap door in the ceiling of our closet -- especially since I don't have anything on the shelf below it (because I have no stuff). It makes a great step-down or something, I guess. Anyway, she's worried that someone will come into our apartment that way. Well, one day I decided we should just take a look up there. We couldn't reach the trap door, even when standing on a chair, so my solution? I told her to get on my shoulders. It took a little persuading, but eventually she was on my shoulders with my flashlight in one hand and my pepper spray in the other! There's nothing up there, of course, and as far as we can tell it doesn't lead anywhere else, but Sister L. still taped some paper over the hole. It was a hilarious experience!

We had exchanges this weekend, which was a blast! I stayed here in L/P, and Sister L. went to W. Sister K. came down with me. We tracted a lot! It's nice to see other people in action. But what was super fun was that we know a bunch of the same people from back home. Sister K. was actually in the 243rd ward (Norma's) right before I moved there, so we have a lot of common friends. We had a good time talking about the ward and the people. It was refreshing! We were also both able to learn new things about missionary work and I loved it! We got some return appointments for later this week, so I'll let you know how that goes!
