This week was mas y menos, or in other words, so-so. Interviews, baptism: 16-year-old named Joseph, and the rest of the time sitting in the house swapping off of sickness between Elder Mekonen or Elder Newbold.
Today we played football (soccer). My shoes exploded (my adidas), so hopefully I can round up some new ones. I will take some photos of those suckers. It is sweet.
That is awesome to hear that the reunion was a good one! Glad you guys had some fun, you needed it.
I have just given up on keeping track of months. We just hit our 10-month mark today though, so that is cool. Just plugging along and keeping a smile on.
I am just making the most of personal study. Hopefully it will pay off tomorrow when I instruct about gold mining in a physical and spiritual aspect.
I never imagined I would sit at home for two months of my mission off and on, going out-type stuff, but you make do. We just keep praying that the crazy stuff goes away and everyone comes back to full health.
It is nuts how crazy people are about the football. You know if Ghana lost, tied, or won just by the noise being made outside. You see TVs everywhere with the games, the streets are less filled from people watching, speakers blazing with the games, and kids all over juggling little balls. Hopefully no one is disappointed. I will look around for some Ghana jerseys and see what I can do, Jerseys are hard to find sometimes.
Love,
Elder Thacker
P.S. Could I possibly get a recipe for some salsa? Crepes?
P.S.S. Could you also ask Grandma how much yeast I am suppose to put in scones, and how much oil you need to fill the pan with to cook the scones? Maybe for a spaghetti sauce basic recipe? Sorry, things are needing a change in food eaten here.
Love you like a fat boy loves cake and ice cream!
