Note: Another week with no group email.  Here is an excerpt from my mom email this week. 

I have a sickness that never leaves hahah. It just keeps coming back. I would say im nauseous every third day. I think half of it is that the weather is like 80 degrees one day and 30 the next day, and my body cant adjust. I think the other half is that im stressed and my stomach is my stress ball hahah but what can you do?

 So hermana Varas went home, like I said, and there was another sister with thyroid problems that went home the same day, and then they told me Id be the companion of Hna Bringhurst, the mission nurse. But then President changed things two days later and now Im the companion of Hna Jara, and shes an hermana leader. So in the house theres me, and Hna Jara, (hna lider) Hna Trujillo (nurse and hna lider) and Hna Bringhurst (nurse-- also going home in two weeks) and we all live in the same house in Campo Grande, the chuchiest of the chuchi in Asuncion. So basically there are two areas here, and depending on the day, im with a different companion, and depending on the day, im in one of the two areas. Its basically the weirdest situation that has ever happened on the mission, and everyone says so.

 And on top of that the president is going home on friday. So apparently all the hermanas in my house have been invited to a big welcome/going away dinner on friday to meet President Evans and to say goodbye to the McMullins. and then we have a buttload of conferences an other stuff. So im like strutting around the mission office like an hermana leader but i really have no responsibility and i dont know what Im doing. :)

 But luckily I really like all the sisters I live with. Its a little grating sometimes to live with four people who are all leader-type personalities. But if anyone can do it, I can. I just try to keep up with everything. Its like being back at school. We all speak english, four girls that just live together and we do stupid things like order delivery pìzza and jumping on each other when we dont get up on time. 

Sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo thats been things. I dont know what the Lord is doing. I really dont. But you know, He tells us to work, and we just kind of shut up and work, you know? I have a bed and a hot shower and money so what more can you ask for?
