Dear Family,
Today we visited a pet store here in Santiago and I´ve always been kinda
sad to see all the cute little animals in boxes and cages, but this pet
store was different: they let some of the animals out of their
enclosures and let them hang around the store. As you can see from the
pictures we made friends with Emilio the parrot. He´s a very curious
bird and likes to eat neck ties as you can see from the picture with my
comp. it also looks like Emilio is trying to hang him with his own tie.
haha. when emilio was perched on my shoulder he tried to eat my tie as
well. Apparently he also likes to pop the buttons of of peoples shirts.
haha
We also saw a little black, super fuzzy dog that was loose and
playing with one of the workers. so fun! there were fish and turtles and
hedgehogs and sugar gliders and mice and hamsters and puppies and
bunnies and a shark and tons of different kinds of birds and monkeys. It
was super fun to tour all the animals.
Notice: If you are going to send me a package send it
directly to the mission office and not the miami florida address. I am
almost done paying off my debt to the mission for the packages and it
can´t be soon enough.
Mom please tell Kim Hamilton to email about the scripture cases even
if it´s just to say yes or no. if she wants to do it it definitely be
best to deposit the money to my debit account to pay for them.
We
are finding more and more inactive members in La Vega everyday. Some
just need a little push to get them to come back, others need to be
comforted and animated to come back and others are unable to come back
fully due to financial situations and for their work situation...
working hard and having fun and healing from a sunburn...
I
went and saw the mission doctor today about engrown toenails and it
turns out that I have nasty foot fungus....to cure the fungus is a long
expensive process involving taking a certain drug for 3-6 months minimum
and getting liver tests every month to make sure the drugs aren´t
killing the liver. It´s not feasible to do in the mission so It will
have to wait. I just need to keep it clean and try to help it not be
engrown. And even after the mission I´m not sure I´ll go through this
long procedure, it´s not life threatening and my toenails don´t usually
hurt me so it´s not big deal.
Keep the Faith. Trust in God.
