Hey everyone,
I am so sorry for not e-mailing you last week; Elder Cranney and I were pretty rushed because we had to switch the Spanish missionaries apartments to make way for the Sister missionaries! That's right! Elder Cranney and I got doubled out! Our week was just full of packing, and cleaning, and packing, and cleaning, and repacking, and updating the area book, and saying goodbye to the wonderful people of Sheboygan. I miss them terribly, especially Brother Klunk! Tuesday night we drove down to Milwaukee to drop the car off at the transfer point there (I cried in the car for about 20 minutes, then 30 more when I went to bed), and headed our way up to Green Bay the next day! It was a LONG ride, but Elder Cranney had longer, because he had to go all the way up to Houghton! I don't envy him in the slightest, because they have a TON of snow! Most of my drive was just me being depressed (in fact, most of this week has been that), but I am striving to recommit myself to working in Green Bay just as hard as Sheboygan! That's what the Lord needs!
My new companion is Elder Rytting. He's a pretty cool guy. Kind of dramatic, but cool none the less. I'm excited to be serving with him for the next little while, because he's probably being transferred next transfer! I just hope I can learn my way around Green Bay before he leaves, because I am completely turned around!
So our apartment is pretty nice. We have a huge LoveSac sitting in our living room, and I kid you not, these are the warning/instructions for the LoveSace:
"WARNING: Improper use of this product may cause injury or death.
Do not jump on the Lovesac--projecting oneself through open space is inherently dangerous--may cause injury or death.
Do not allow children to play unattended on the Lovesac-- better yet, do not allow your children to play unattended at all.
Do not eat the Lovesac foam -- more importantly, never inhale -- may damage your political career.
Do not allow people to play underneath the Lovesac, or anyhint else for that matter -- may cause injury or death.
Keep away from heaters.
Failure to keep your Lovesac fluffed may cause injury or death to your Sac.
Failure to regularly wash your Lovesac is just gross, ad may somehow lead to injury or death.
Failure to share the love will only cause you to lose friends--possibly resulting in injury or death."
I just though those were absolutely fantastic and worth sharing! We found those today while trying to do flips onto it.
So I hope everybody is doing well back home ore wherever they are serving their missions. I am staying warm (at least trying to), and am getting used to the people out here. No crazies yet, but I know there hiding somewhere!
Love to all!
