This week went by good. The work has died down now since i just got done baptizing my 5 investigators the last 2 weeks. we have other investigators but they are not progressing as much as i would like. On Wednesday we had a big zone conference at our building and there was a good 40 or so missionaries there. For lunch some of the members from the Desoto ward made us food and Lacy was one of the members there helping out. Its so cool to see on of the people i taught and baptized fit so well in with the ward and the members. There is this member in Plano that makes these really cool tie clips and he made a ton for the mission and they were passed out at the zone conference and i was the one passing them out and after everyone got some i got to have the rest. i got like 50 of them haha. Our district leader Elder Shuman was
originally going to go on exchanges with the Desoto elders that day and they said they couldn't and so he was super angry and he asked us to go on exchanges right then and i said no and that made him even more ticked. Talk about no planning at all! i mean come on!
Friday was such a terrible day! We got up at 6:30 and we were planning on going to the church to play basketball for exercise and we hop in the car and it wont start. and our apartment complex is full of black people and i stopped the only mexican in our apartments and i asked them to jump start our car. well i put the car in neutral and pushed it out of the parking space and left it in neutral. we shut our doors and as soon as the jumper cables connected it automatically locked our car with the keys in it. Well at this point we were screwed because our keys were locked in the car, the extra one is in dallas about 45 minutes away, and our apartment is locked. And it is freezing cold
outside! So we started looking for a way into our apartment. keep in mind that we live on the 2nd floor and we only have a little balcony for our back door. We saw that our sliding glass door was unlocked so Elder Kidd climbed up there and we were able to get in.. thankfully! Apparently i was showering the other night and Elder Kidd had to pee super bad so he peed of the balcony and forgot to unlock the sliding glass door. haha. Well Elder Kidd doesn't have a bike and we didn't end up getting our car unlocked till 7 that night because that day another zone conference was going on and no one was going to be in the office till after 5! So that day we didn't get too much done!
On Saturday we went to help this guy named Larry who we always help with service. He as an 84 chevy truck almost exactly like mine. and we helped him take of the gas tank. clean it and put it back on. It made me remember working on old blue back home.. I miss working on cars. although i dont know that much about it.. i still love it! He is not a member but he is a really great guy and we love going over to his house and helping him out. Church was great but super long like always. I almost always get super bad headaches at church on Sundays, which i hate. all in all it was a good week.
