Rough Week

Hello!! 

I am doing okay! This is the week of conference. I’ll get the box Wednesday so no worries!  It's been a rough week. I’ve been sick for the past two weeks straight so that doesn’t help. And on top of that I was wearing my two braces and hurt my knee Thursday night. I’m just really stressed out and my body is a mess. It’s the worst. And I’m not getting better because I’ve been super stressed out. Riches goes home just before me. I didn’t see the video of the home but I would like too. 

Monday was okay we did a lot of stuff and played some games. We took the English Elders with us and there was a lot of missionaries at the church to play basketball. That night we had dinner and that was it.

Tuesday we visited some people. We didn’t have anything go on that day it was really slow for us. Tuesdays are always the slow ones. They seem like they drag on for forever. 

Wednesday was a good day. Our day was busy with service way out of our mission. We went to a service center and helped the Houston health department out. It was for people affected by Harvey. We did various stuff like greeting and packaging. After that we had our soccer game. It was super fun! I usually play defense, which I hate, but I went up and played striker like I used to. I destroyed! I had a goal and almost had two others. It was super fun. 

Thursday we had nothing really. It was weekly planning so that was chill as always. Then we had mutual that night. We played indoor soccer. Usually I’m fine wearing both of my braces but my leg got stuck in between a guy and a chair and he pulled and my leg twisted and I heard a pop. I’ve hurt it enough to know my body and I don’t think anything serious happened. It was a little swollen the next few days but I can walk fine and everything. 

Friday we had district Training at 4. We picked up the Denver Harbor elders too. They were far away in the ghetto. After training we had correlation and that was it. 

Saturday we went and contacted people in a park with the English elders. It wasnt too successful. It was super cold.  

Sunday was good. We had church and then went to lunch with a member. Carmen and her family came to church and they loved it! They are really progressing fast. We went to a baptism at four and then dinner at six. That was our day, 

This week was really stressful but oh well. Let me know what you think about looking into a better brace. I’m just sick of this recurring injury. I’ve been careful and everything... love y’all
