GOOD Week:)

HELLO! Welcome to your favorite time of the week and thank you for tuning in this fine day! For real, shout out to all of you awesome people reading my boring letters these past few weeks! haha! Thank you also for all the love, support and encouragement :) #MuchAppreciated
So, to get this weeks news rolling: We spent the first 2 days of the week in the flat!!!!!!!!!!!
WHOOOOOOOO! My cute companion Sister Snow was really sick! She had a migraine, body aches, dizzy spells, nausea, and pretty much anything else you can think of! My days mostly consisted of flossing my teeth, cleaning the flat, writing letters, flossing again, making chicken noodle soup from scratch (which actually turned out really good), watching Legacy cause all sister missionaries know that's the closest thing you can get to a chick flick out here, and nursing my cute trainee back to health! Then, just when we thought it was safe to step outside the flat, Sister Snow realized she needed a new face wash and so she decided to try a new natural neutrogena one... mistake. The next morning she woke up with crazy hives on her face and hands!!!! What a trooper she is though! Her face was SO itchy, dry and inflamed but she kept working hard! She got a blessing from the Elders and we found her some fun things to try from the pharmacy so it has been getting much better :)

Besides those fun times... this week we found a new investigator!!!!! Her name is Jasmine and we are really excited about her! YAY! Also this coming week is pretty full of lessons for us which I am so happy about cause sometimes it is even hard to fill our days during planning each night!

This week was so crazy with the weather too...?! WHAT THE HECK! So the week started off sunny then all of a sudden it was pouring rain, super windy and hail balls the size of probably marbles started to rain! We had to run from our car to appointments which did not go well with an umbrella cause it kept turning inside out! I hope I am not the one making bad impressions on mormon missionaries when they see me...

Also fun events, my cute comp can't signal very well on the bike, she feels she is going to fall off so this morning for exercise we got our butts on our bikes and she was biking around the neighborhood as I was like "RIGHT" "LEFT" from behind hahahaha must have been quite the sight for these kiwis ;)
Other good news!!!!! : We got a flash, new car!!!!!!!!!!!! WHOOOOO! The elders are all butt hurt cause they got our old gross one and we were upgraded ;) haha (Flash: fancy, new, nice, expensive). Also, I am turning 20 in 7 days (YUCK) but hey congrats to me for living through 2 decades I guess (*pat on the back*). Oooh and I also decided to chop all my hair off so it's short now, hahahaha!


Bad News: We have been showering in the dark for 3 weeks now... water started to drip INTO THE LIGHT BULB while it was raining so then it started to spark and smoke so we shut it off and we are still waiting for the repair people to come :-)

Also EVERYTHING in our flat leaks hahaha, so it is real fun running around in the rain with buckets trying to catch the water! HAHAHAH!

I love being a missionary!!!!!!!!!!!!! I really do! and all the fun times on the side just give me more stories to add to my repertoire ;)

Lots of prayers for our coming lessons this week would be much appreciated, hopefully they will become new investigators!!!! Yay! Love you all REAL GOOD and I will chat with you next week when I AM 20 YEARS OLD AH!

Love, Sister Golden
