Week 37: Texas Weather Is Wack

Texas weather is so bipolar and I don't know how to handle it. On Wednesday it went from 84⁰ to 32⁰. SOMEONE EXPLAIN. Then our heater broke and it got very very chilly in our apartment. We basically just carried all our bedding around with us that next day because we were so cold hahaha.

We stopped by this lady named Laura and she told us that we wouldn't want her because she drinks coffee and swears haha. We told her those really aren't big issues and that we aren't anywhere near perfect. Then she told us about all the Mormon Utah moms that she follows on social media and how perfect and put together they are. We were like, "Ya know, I'm sure they don't have it together any more than you do, social media just makes it seem that way". She didn't seem to believe us though haha. 

On Saturday night we stopped by this elderly lady named Sandy and she was literally the SWEETEST person I've ever met. She couldn't stop talking about how much the Lord has blessed her and how much fun she's having. She even did a little dance hahaha. Elder Neddo and I were having a pretty crappy day and she seriously made my mood do a 180. After that we stopped by someone else and before they opened the door we heard them complaining about it being the "Mormons". Then this guy told us it wasn't a good time but that we could stop by on Monday at 6:00am. He was obviously being sarcastic cause after he closed the door they were laughing about it. I'm sure they won't think it's so funny anymore when we're banging on their door at 6:00am though. JK we didn't do that... we just decided we won't be visiting them anymore cause ain't nodbody gonna bring us down. Moral of the story is to be like Sandy. We need more Sandys. 

All but three of our lessons fell through cause everyone ghosted us this week so that was frustrating but Elder Neddo and I didn't let that stop us from having a good time! Unfortunately, I don't have any more time to write though, so these pictures will have to suffice. 

Love y'all!
