Let's get right too it.
So Tuesday we had a district meeting in Chalco. I love district meetings! I always learn something useful or remember something I need to improve. After the district meeting, we talked with the mission secretary about changing houses and we figured out (without saying too much) that there are a ton of problems with the contract we have for this house. That whole process took FOREVER and we didn't get back to Cuatro Vientos until 2ish. We went to lunch, visited some people, then I got a call that we had to go BACK to Chalco to pay for something. There was a ton of traffic and yaaaaa, it was a slow day.
Wednesday was also a slow day. Since I am training we had to go to a special trainers meeting in Chalco (again). It was cool to talk with all the missionaries and we learned a lil bit as well. For some reason, it lasted like 8 hours. We left the house at 8:30 am and got back to our area at 6 pm... so we tried to visit a bunch of people really fast, but besides that, as far as the mission work, it was a slow day.
Thursday I was feeling a lil sad that we hadn't had time to work a lot so I decided we would dedicate the entire morning to contacting in the street. My son doesn't exactly love contacting, but I taught him a little about the keys to contacting and he likes it (kinda) now: don't talk to people like they are strangers (without love), smile, get to know them a little if there is time, and don't get down on yourself. It was fun and we killed it. In the afternoon, our investigators surprised us with this cake thing that is called (basically) the Impossible cake. It is flan with chocolate cake on the bottom. It is the bomb! We visited a bunch of other people but not too many were home or had time so :/
Friday we had a fun lil experience. So our area is just a huge planned community and all the streets have gates so we have to call the people and wait for them to open it. While we were waiting, it started to rain so I called our investigators like 8 times and THEN it started to HAIL. Elder Solorzano and I looked at each other and read each others mind. We just flat out sprinted like 10 minutes to a members house while hail the size of a nickel came at us from every direction. I just remember running and hearing my comp yell "ow" like every 2 seconds hahaha!
Saturday was full of walking. We looked for a ton of people, but hardly anyone was home.
Sunday was good. None of our investigators came to church though :/
Monday! Ok so about 6 months ago we had this activity in our mission called Sports Day (original right?). Today was sports day! We compete against all the other zones in the mission. And we wonnnnn! Two in a row baby let´s gooooo! It was exhausting though.
Love y'all!
