A Cloud Cover........what a blessing!

This week flew by so fast that I don´t even know what to talk about. Time keeps going faster and faster, what is this? I have been trying to get into the Christmas spirit here, but it is so difficult when it feels like summer! I am amazed at how not big of a deal Christmas is here. It´s just a one day holiday, not a month holiday like in the US. So, I am putting on activities here to bring the Christmas spirit. I am pretty sure that my companion is sick and tired of Mormon Tabernacle Christmas, but oh well! I am enjoying it while I can!

  This week was a huge blessing, as far as the heat wave goes. It has been cloudy most of the week, and less hot. OOOO how wonderful! Maybe the Lord is blessing me with some Seattle clouds for Christmas. I am pretty happy. But nonetheless, I will describe how `normal` is here. The normal temperature in my house is about 86 degrees, and HUMID. Everything is worse when It´s humid. In the morning when I do exercise, I literally drip sweat everywhere! First time in my life! It´s disgusting.  (Sorry for anyone that didn’t want to hear that..oops!) But everyone says that it will still get hotter.. How can people live like this? ha-ha!

  A member here led us to a family of 7, who are all interested. The kids are more interested than the parents, but I hope that they will all be baptized together. My companion and I are working hard and time is passing so fast.

 I really don’t have too much to say this week! I love you all and please enjoy all the wonderful things about Christmas. Merry early Christmas!
