Week 29

So this week i had to Adult,  I had to take our car in and get it
serviced and repaired so I had to make the appointment I had to talk
to our insurance people then I had to get everything in order so the
car could be serviced and then go to another place to get the side
mirror fixed (previous accident not my fault!) and also I had to
arrange for the car we were going to be driving in the meantime. Then
I had to drive us to the dealership. So everything was working out
perfectly I got everything payed for I filled out all the paperwork
just like a big girl and I picked up the keys and we went out to our
rental car. This is where my adulting ended. So I put all our stuff in
the car that the car repair people dropped off for us at the
dealership sat down in the car went to drive and realised oh no! this
is a manual car! I can't drive manual! So then I had to make a few
calls and arrange for the car repair people to bring me an automatic
so an hr later they brought us an Automatic and I filled out new
paperwork for the new, new car moved all our stuff again then the guy
took off and we got in the automatic then I went to drive again and
looked down and saw the most messed up shifter ever the gears were R,
N and E and then a - and + sign for all you car people I literally had
no idea what the heck it meant so I had to call about five other
missionaries before we could figure it out what the heck we needed to
do to drive that thing. So ya I used my Adult powers to the extreme
that day.

Our Investigator is doing so great we have been teaching him and
helping him lots so it's been going really good with him. He is
seriously so prepared he came to Gospel principals this week and he
seriously crushed it the whole lesson he just answered every question
and asked if he could read scriptures and ya it was amazing it's just
so cool to see him make so much progress so fast. I love it.

This Sunday we had our first sacrament meeting in Skegness it was a
success 16 people went to it. Good things are happening in the Boston
area.

So last night sister Osele and I were downstairs just talking and
sister Alayon was upstairs the phone rang and sister Alayon answered
it and started talking to one of our assistants to President and the
last time we got a phone call from them it was because Sister Gjika
was being Emergency Transferd so naturally I started Freaking out
because I thought someone was going to be leaving. So then Sister
Alayon said oh you wanna talk to Sister Brown and I almost started
crying because I thought he was gonna tell me I needed to pack. So I
got the phone and it was just him telling me that I have been called
to be a trainer by President Leppard so After I got over the shock of
don't worry you aren't really leaving and then I got really excited
because I'm gonna be a Momma! Well at least in the mission haha so ya
I getta go to Birmingham this week for a trainers meeting and then my
baby should be coming in about three weeks I think so I'm super
excited.

This week was just super busy with traveling and teaching and just
doing the work. It makes me sad that my trio life is ending though in
two weeks but I'm excited to get my own little greenie and to
introduce her to missionary life.

Love,
