What is up everybody,
How are y'all doing? I'm doing pretty good thanks for asking. This week was pretty cool, nothing crazy happened, but I enjoyed it.
To start off, we got a new homie in our apartment, his name is Elder Wilson, pretty cool guy. He's from Colorado, and the funny thing is that he is technically a new missionary, yet he's actually older than me, which is a little annoying but I'm chillin.
Things have slowed down a bunch this week because of New Years and we are no longer covering more than one area. So a lot of what we do is calling and texting people, along with Facebook work. And lemme tell ya Facebook is the bane of my existence, it drives me crazy because I have no idea what I'm supposed to be doing half the time, but at least I'm trying, right?
We have been getting a little bored with things slowing down, so we decided we would try to spice things up a bit. We got bored one day while we were working at the church so we decided to take our bikes and see who could do a lap around the church the fastest. It was awesome, I had a blast, and obviously I won 😉 But definitely don't try that at home, we are trained professional idiots so don't worry.
We have been struggling to get into contact with some people we are teaching, because they just dont want to answer the phone, and since we can't just knock on their door, because of stupid COVID stuff, we've pretty much run out of options. So my companion thought that it would be a good idea to ask one of our members if they would be willing to knock on their door, and believe it or not they said yes so that's pretty exciting. That gave me a ton of respect for some of our members because I know if I was home I don't think I would be able to do that.
For New Years Eve the Elders in my apartment decided to make this drink that a member showed us. It's called a Lime Ricky and oh my goodness it is amazing, it involves about 3/4 Sprite, 1/4 Grape juice, and of course half a lime, you mix all those together and you have heaven on earth. I'm telling you it is absolutely fantabulous.
Luckily we are back to biking everywhere which is both a blessing and a curse. A blessing because it's an extra workout with all these Lime Ricky's I'm drinking, but obnoxious because it takes forever to get place to place. But I swear by the time I get back my quads are going to be ginormous.
But that's about it for this week, lemme know how you all have been doing. I hope you all stay safe out there with all the crazy COVIDness that's going around. Peace out y'all
Elder Normandin
