The days feel like weeks

     You know that saying the days feel like weeks and the weeks feel like days? I know for sure the first bit of that is true. Everyday goes on super long and I'm always really tired at the end of it. But its all going good! Monday was the first day it rained and it has been raining like crazy ever since then. Usually only really hard for like 30-45 min and then just sprinkling and then the sun comes out like it was never gone. We have been teaching all over and trying really hard to find people but we haven't had a ton of luck. There is one sister, sister Alma, who is going to be baptized really soon but I kinda hate teaching her because she lives out in a tiny place called San Rafael. Getting there we just ride a trike but there aren't any to ride back so we have to walk and it takes like an hour to get back to where people are that will listen to us. The San Antonio family is getting closer too. I think we have them scheduled for the  Nov. Hopefully they don't miss church or anything cause then we have to push it back even more. All the people here love seeing two white people walking around. I sure do hear Hey Joe!! a lot. We have one investigator who is just super awesome. Her name is sister Joann. She can't be baptized until she gets married though and they are super poor so we just have to wait on that but she comes to church every week and she started bringing her little brother and sister for us to teach! She also said she tells all her friends about it when they ask her. I'll send a picture of them walking with us to her house so we can teach them. We also took Jasper with us to teach the other day which was way fun. He was baptized a few weeks before I got into the field. I still can't really talk to anybody which sucks but I am getting better. Jasper was telling me that he wants to serve a mission in the US.I honestly don't know if I will ever get used to showering out of a bucket but I sure hope so. I can't decide though when I get home if I'll like the showers more or not randomly finding ants and other bugs crawling on me at all times of the day and night For almost everyday we have rice and this chili packet we buy at the store. I haven't been able to weigh myself yet but I'm sure I'm losing weight because my pants don't fit quite as tight as they used too.... The branch is good. There is like 500+ members in all of Buhi but only about 100 people come to church. I don't like church a whole ton right now cause I never know whats going on. Sunday I had to bear my testimony and that was an adventure. It went okay. I think I said everything right but I don't really know. Whenever I don't know what to say I can just put in English though because lots of people know a little English.  Anyways its great to hear from you I love you all!!
