Elder Jonas Gridley's mission

  Okay I can't tell you what movie I know this is from but I need help it fits so well!     Monday we had a lesson with our friend Keegan she's Pagan its interesting teaching her very new for me but it's pretty good. Had a good lesson going back this next Thursday. Oh so we biked to this lesson and I lead and when we got there we realized Elder Wilkinson didn't have a tie!   had to get a picture super great.    Tuesday I learned what you need to do to kick someone out in NC it was interesting. Sorry umm we taught Kathy it was great we didn't expect dinner so we had 2 dinners shrug cool. It was great. Elder Wilkinson had a lot of packing not much else happened.    Wednesday TRANSFERS! So I was so excited and nervous to train. We got Elder Wilkinson and all his stuff to Transfers on time it was great gave him a hug and said goodbye and got my new companion. Well as the title of the email. I got my pick of them all. I had the spirit confirm...

    Well for the title of the email that is how I will start us off. So Tuesday we had service and well I didn't notice anything wrong with my boots why would I? Well after working at the food bank for about 3 ish hours I was feeling something at the end of my toes. I was like oh did something fall in them that's odd it's at my toes. Flip shoe over and do the shaky shake and a large dead roach falls out it was interesting he looked very dead and smashed. Odd it took me like 3 hours to figure it out I know but that was fun.     Deep sigh* just hit 9 months today!    Sunday was really fun we had an Ahoskie day where we drive like about 80 minutes total from the apartment to meet with some people in a small town. They haven't been as productive as we have hoped for but this Ahoskie day was really good! We only do them every couple of months but we meet many great people. First, a member who escaped Romania on a Saturday to avoid getting drafted or whateve...

     Though I'm fine put here working all the time I definitely loved being a pop culture junkie,, but hey "Pobodys Nerfect" guys   . From what I've seen almost all missionaries before they go home, they really slow down and just think about home. Well, it's less fun when your companion is ready to go home and when you experience it you just like make a promise to yourself that you won't become that way because it's annoying. But with God I know "I can do this all day" 2 whole years.     It's been a great start on this run but it's for 2 years it's no sprint. But speaking of running we went running for the first time since Hampton. We only ran two miles but it was great!     We taught 2 lessons with my favorite member here Brother Shakin he knows so much about the gospel and is a motivational speaker just the whole 9 yards with his people skills. But it was really fun to teach with him.     Wow, I guess it's hitting me no...
