Oh the weather outside is frightful (semana 20)

Image
 "But the fire is so delightful, and since we've no place to go, let it snow, let it snow, let it snow"  We have finally reached sweater weather!!! But how many sweaters do I actually have? 1... wooo! But luckily we're still in the high 60s-low 70s so its not horrible and I can be in a short leave Tee. It is funny how many funny looks the Californians give me because I am not cold!  One of our main focuses this week has been staying diligent until the very end of the day (aka 9pm) so our mission has come up with "Juice Hour" from 8-9pm, if you don't have lessons, you're still outside of your house finding new friends in parking lots or at parks, doing stopbys, or trying to teach a quick doorstep lesson! It has been pretty fun and weve found a few new friends through it!  Again, being comps with an STL leads to multiple exchanges throughout the week. One of my favorite exchanges this week though, was with my other STL. Sister Sterrett is a Cracked sis...

Yes Im young and living dreams. In love of being noticed

 "And afraid of being seen. But I can finally eat and I can fall asleep. Its fine" Oh how I miss listening to Noah Kahan. Its so sad being out here and not having music to listen to lol. I've luckily been able to play some Noah Kahan.  This week has been crazy! We had transfers on Tuesday and I moved to Riverside!! Wooo. I have made it to the mega zone! This was Hna. Nicholsons baby zone and now I am here so she gave me quite a few names to look for and say hi! So that will be fun but holy cow there are a lot of people here lol.  We moved into an elders apartment which is crazy. They hid a BUNCH of mini babies all around the apartment and we hope we have found all of them and then another baby pops up out of nowhere. In our apartment, we have a sigular couch (which happens to be a loveseat), table, AND..... a bench press!   just exactly what we need.  Hna Stout and I helped an hermana in the ward make pampusas which was super fun. And the other members here...

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas everywhere you go

 "Take a look at the five and ten, its glistening once again with candy canes and silver lanes aglow"  It's actually not looking like Christmas. We are still in the 70s but have reached windy season!  It has been blowing almost everyday! There were 2 or 3 days where it was blowing 10-20 Mph. It is funny how people in California close everything down with 10-20 Mph gusts where in Utah/Wyoming we get 30-40 Mph.  Transfers are already here! Leaving Ontario to go to Riverside tomorrow! I am so ready for some change haha. I am ready to meet some new sisters!  This week was kinda crazy! It was so long! Holy cow. It just felt like it just dragged on and on but it's finally Monday again!  We made so many phone calls this week. Its honestly so draining   and half of the time our amigos just don't even answer sooo...  We put our friend Maribel on date this week for December! But with transfers tomorrow, my comp and I are being doubled out so we said by...

I'm just bones covered in skin

  "No heartbeat, only this pain I'm in" Lol I realized this morning just how bad I miss Bensons music. I'm always singing his songs but woke up with Love of Mine stuck in my head and wanted to go play it but realized I could not. Never been so sad   (jk) Lets see. Crazy busy week but it really didnt feel like it. Something is in the air and ALL of our friends kept canceling lessons! It was so frustrating lol. Luckily we had 2 friends that were pretty good about keeping their commitments to meeting at their set time.  We got so many referrals this week! 2 came in this morning within an hour of each other! That was insane! Most of them are just not interested or dont want to talk to us unfortunately but hey! We still got referrals!  I didnt have to go to Riverside this week! But I think we're going sometime this week  Our friend Aldo got baptized yesterday!! That was so fire!   He even brought a friend to his baptism and the friend was super support...
