WHAT I KNEW .1 SECONDS AGO:
that we were STAYING in Lawrence 1st (5th transfer in same place and i was THU-RILLED) and that the Elders that just came to double cover our ward (LOVE them, they are on fire such a blessing FINALLY got in the groove of working together as as TEAM) were going to be double transferred out and in to Lawrence 2nd Ward (where i originally started for like 1 week..) FOLLOWING? and the 2nd ward SISTERS would be leaving to different places. Tears were shed (from everyone but us because we were sittin' pretty staying where we were......minus the fact that we were HOMELESS but I love Salvation Army so I was like.....I'm ok with this not having a home thing??) done. check. locked in.
IMAGINE OUR HORROR WHEN WE LOG ON AND IT IS US who is being transferred BACK to the 2nd Ward.....................................
full circle.
So I'm staying in Lawrence.......but changing Wards....................AND.IT.IS.TORTURE!!!!!!!
It's hard enough leaving your area..but then to leave your area to GO NEXT DOOR AND BE FORCED TO WATCH ELDERS TAKE ALL OF YOUR INVESTIGATORS!?!?!?!?!?!?!!?!?!?!?!?!?!?
dead.mind.exploded.dying...inside.......NOOOOOOOOOOO
ok. enough of that. IM OK.
i think.
pray for me.
IN OTHER NEWS.......we get a freebie baptism this Saturday from the other Sisters??? #feelin'guilty
ok ok ok so BEFORE my mind got scrambled like an egg....these WERE the highlights...which now turned to lowlights thinking that I want get to help their progression! (AH) but the Elders really are FANTASTIC so it's a blessing.......and a curse.
WUT.
haha ok i was going to erase everything but it's better if you just FOLLOW THE PATTERN OF CHAOS RIGHT NOW.
Just got a text from the Zone Leaders saying the transfer list was wrong and we are ACTUALLY still in 1st Ward???? RIGHT WHEN I GOT COMFORTABLE SAYING IM IN 2nd?!?!? hahaha LITERAL fiasco.
So I'm just not saying anything anymore.
HIGHLIGHTS:
SHOWERED WITH GIFTS AT SALVATION:
-diamond ring big as my knuckle REAL........i'm like hmmm you sure? YES REAL....so we sold it and made GOBS of millions of dollars and we BOUGHT Salvation Army and now they all WORK for us writing our numbers on the thousands of mormon.org cards and pamphlets we haven't filled out yet.................
-oh and we also got Rusty tomatoes....like the only way to describe them thats what they looked like....someone "grew" them so we're like ................................. delicious...............................
-and basically could make a bouquet out of the fake silk flowers I got......which i usually re-gift to Liz the lady who works upstairs......until the person asked for it back as we were leaving....??? .........awkwardfumbling....ohcan'tseemtofinditinmygiantbag................................................... #crap
Dinner: me vs. the ants.
Trying so hard to concentrate on the convo....whilst WWIII commences under my napkin........so gross......never will look at black pepper the same....
PICKING RASBERRIES: I'm like...is this service or is this heaven???????????? #bestdayever
MOVED: chaos....so much stuff.....tiny Ford Fusion.......obstruction of vision at every angle.....ALIVE.
Etiquette dinner....with the BEEHIVES?? and Sister Campo (bless her)....after a failed attempt at setting a place setting because they stole the cheat sheet.....resulted in cancelling everything and watching them zipline for 20 minutes #success
LAST ZONE MEETING BEFORE TRANSFERS (half the zone leaving) = ALL of us going out to eat...tiny little local Mexican resturaunt in Topeka + 100 million missionaries = SO MUCH CONFUSION so overshelming....not enough Spanish....we are so weird. Like just so many collared short sleeved shirts........LOVE it.
Guilt tripping Neil (the hospital janitor) in to meeting with us....COUNTING IT AS A SUCCESS?? #winning
-DIANE! Salvation Army like LIFE OF THE PARTY! ......possibly dating recent convert Troy?? tbd
IN LOVE with an Elder who served here 6 months ago CONVINCED she has his "personal cell phone number" "HE GAVE IT TO ME!, lets call him!!" ....EVERY Elder since has played along which is SO funny "do you want to talk to him?" SURE "hey this is Elder haws....not Elder McCalley...", EXCEPT this last Elder....to see her face of disappointment... HEART BREAKING.
Went to those tiny cities in our area (McClouth)just lost...like a lot.
physics teacher/teaching us magic tricks for like 20 min?? UM YES? but so caught up....wait why are we here agian? OH YEAH THE GOSPEL!
SO MANY HORSES
Less Active......with some lazy eye(s) (plural) ...........where do I look.......where do I look........30 min later....realize i picked the wrong eye.....thinks I've been ignoring her this whole time WHY.
LASTLY week topped off yesterday by Parker Christensen re-incarnated as a girl SO awesome - walks in to Church late with a scarf over her head like shaking/shuffling down the aisle to the VERY front pew...grandma/Muslim character down to how she sang the hymns all shaky at the TOP of her lungs, i seriously was like.....wait. WHY are we not best friends yet. Shes 13. Besties for life.
HOPE your week was as confusing as mine. Because it makes your life that much more awesome.
LOVE YOU ALL
Sister Murray
SHOUTOUTS:
