WEEK 92

Had such a great week. Here are the highlights —

- SERVICE
This week we did a bunch of service! We had to help some guy clean out his fish pond. He hadn't cleaned it in 3 years so I was up to the middle of my shin in fish crap and dirt. We spent like 4 hours cleaning and didn't even get halfway through. Then we went and helped our neighbor at his water plant. We had to fill up like 500 water jugs. He also pulled a prank on me and put a wire in the water and then asked me to grab something out of the water. I didn't see the wire and touched the water and got electrocuted! For like 5 seconds I was shaking uncontrollably and then just stopped. Actually felt pretty cool. We prolly spent like 3 hours filling up 6 or 7 trucks with the water!

- PDAY
Last p-day we went on a hike as a district. I'm not even sure what the end was cuz they weren't waterfalls but they were pretty cool. It was so nice there cuz there was a breeze and it was like 70 degrees. We gotta take a nap on the grass for like 1 hour and it was the best nap I've had in a long time.

- CAT
On the way back, one missionary heard a cat meowing and I went to find the cat. Well, I ended up finding a shoebox with kittens inside. Someone just left the box. There was one still alive so we took it home. We bought a syringe and milk and fed the cat.Then we found a member who wanted it and now the cat's doing super good. 

Hope your week was as good as mine!

Love, Elder Fuller

WEEK 96

Alright, Imma start this week off complaining and then I'll get to the good parts — - WATER, POWER & GAS Monday-Wednesday, we had absolutely no water in our house. We had to shower with water bottles and honestly, it felt pretty weird. Once we finally got water, then we lost gas. It's so freakin' cold here in the mornings and it was so much worse with freezing cold water. Luckily by Friday, we had gas. On Thursday, we lost power, so we went without any electricity for 2 days and it kinda sucked cuz there was no where to charge our phones. Then on Saturday and Sunday, we got to watch general conference. We don't have a church here so one sister gave us her tv and another, their computer. We used our hot spot to put on general conference and right after the last session, we lost the last bit of our data. We used so much data streaming general conference and now we got no data for 2 more weeks. There's not a single member here with wifi so now we gotta go 2 weeks w...

Had a great week! Here are the highlights — - ZONE CONFERENCE We had our Christmas Zone Conference. It was the best zone conference I've been to. They had a Christmas program so we heard a bunch of Christmas stories and sang a bunch of songs. After, we played a bunch of games and broke a piñata. We had secret santas and I got a poncho that I now wear to bed every night cuz it's freakin cold here! Our mission president gave everyone gifts and then I got some from my parents. - NAVIDAD It was super cool to spend my last Christmas here in Mexico. I was in a trio so it felt kinda weird but it was super fun! We honestly did nothing for Christmas day but Christmas Eve, we went to a member's house and played a bunch of soccer. Then  I had to check in with all the companionships in my zone, but after, we had pasole! We finished by playing one of the most intense games of Uno I have ever played. We prolly got home at like 11:30 and talked for 30 minutes. At midnight, when Christmas ...

I reached a milestone this week...3 months as a missionary. Here are some of the highlights —  - SERVICE This week we had another service project. This lady wants to start a garden in her backyard, but first we needed to clean it out. It had bushes and long grass covering the entire space. Also, there were probably 1000 grasshoppers. Every plant or blade of grass we pulled had at least a few on them. There were tons of spiders and other insects. We spent two hours just pulling bushes and grass and got about ¾ of the way done with her backyard. We are going back on Tuesday to finish the backyard and to do the front yard. After we were done, we stayed for lunch and the lady gave us soggy pig skin to eat. The sisters hated it. I wasn't a fan either but the sisters would just throw their food onto our plates when the lady wasn't looking so we ended up having to eat far more than our share. - GENERAL CONFERENCE General conference was so good this week. I couldn't understand all ...
