well hello family.
ok so there are quite a few questions that need to be answered so ill start out with those. so first thing, umm i didnt get a new companion or anything, so sorry if what i said last week in my letter was a little confusing but everything is normal i still have the same companion as always. and mom ok, so i think when i talked to tenille on the phone she said that you were trying to give her my futon ? umm you cant do that.. i payed for half of that.... you can give it to her if you replace it with something better in my room , thats the deal. and yes a leatherman knife, let me explain to you how living in the DR is. its basically a two year camping trip, its nothing like living in america, and a leatherman would be very very helpful. and i dont need any mosquito cream, so dont worry about that. and also could you put a copy of my mission call in the box your sending to me and as for the treat well anything will do , sweedish fish are always good but anything will work. and your right i dont have a microwave, and i do all my cooking on a gas stove. umm drinking out of that water bottle , well the president told us not to use it because since the missionaries have been using them , more missionaries were getting sick, because if you look at the part where you suck the water from, its not coverd so alot of dirt and stuff gets in there. and i havnt used my rechargable batteries yet, because i havnt had to but im sure that soon in the future i will be using them. as for dallin and jantzen, well i havnt heard from dallin since the provo mtc and the only time i heard from jantzen was when i talked to him on the phone, so i dont know what going on with them or anything. tiff so as for my poop well this has been an interesting week and ill talk about it later in the email. but as for my sleeping , i sleep on a bed and its actually a really comfortable bed, and there are no bugs in my bed which i am extremely gratefull for. but speaking of bugs ill talk about that later in the email also. and that work out vibrator thing, that sounds soo cool and i reall really want to try it out........... in 20 months haha. jonny well as for my investigators , we dont really have any good ones right now. we basically had to get rid of the six best ones we had because they wouldnt come to church. so were basically starting from scratch. and my testimony is great. im really good at testifying because thats all i do all day long haha. but my testimony has also grown in everything so much too , its really cool. but ok so as for my week , it was pretty good and averageish week. so about my poop. so i had some problems last week with it being to runny right? well this week i have an entirely new problem. so for the past two days and if you include today, 3 days i havnt been able to poop!!! nothing i do, try, or how long i sit there for , nothing happens haha. it has definatly been really really really interesting. so i just got like two and half days of stuff chillin inside my body waiting to come out..... haha. and im not exactly quite sure what i should do about this haha. but and for the bugs. so my house officially has cockroaches. yes cockroaches. i open up my clothes drawer and i find cockroaches. i pick up my shoe and i find cockroaches in my shoe. now the worst bugs invented are mosquitos, ants, and cockroaches. as for the language , well i think all is going well. im studying really hard and learning alot so i think with just a little time everything is going to be alright. but sounds like all of you are doing pretty good, really really busy but overall things are going good. i love hearing from you all every week and all of you are in my prayers every day. so thats about it , love you all cant wait to hear from you next week. love elder finn
