Hiiii!!
Mom- Thank you for all the juicy gossip(lots of weddings and mission returns to report to her this week). I love emails like that. Sorry for not coming home in October. I guess I got things tah do in Ohio until November 30th. ;) Thank you for the package! I love getting new clothes! Sister Grant actually had a dress with the same fabric as the skirt, so we twinned hard core yesterday; it was awesome. I'm her and her twin's triplet (Sarah's companion has a identical twin serving in New Zealand). ALSO, happy, happy, happy birthday! You are the best mom ever. I love you tons and tons. Dad- I know I talk about Taco Bell in basically every email I send you, but I tried a Meal Deal C this week it was delish. I recommend it. Thanks for being the best dad in the whole world. I love you so much!
Quote of the week (sorry there's only 4, it's been a very bland week):
1.) "Hey, girls! I need you to come over! I need a favor!" -Ellie the bearded woman You guys remember Ellie, right? The one with the beard? Yeah, well, she texted this to us the other day. Every time Ellie texts us something like this, she just wants us to go to the store with her money and buy her cookies. Well, we hadn't been over to see good ole Ellie in a while, so we texted her and told her we could come in about 30 minutes. She texted back "okay". We got there and she gave us a blank expression as if she had never seen us before... THEN she said "Oh, I thought you two weren't coming." WHY WOULD YOU THINK THAT, ELLIE? Did she need us? No. She already had a treat that someone else got for her. BUT, was her beard as thick as ever? Yes. And for some reason, seeing that cute, bearded lady sitting on her porch made the whole trip worth it. Sometimes I can't even believe the life I live right now, but I sure do love living it.
2.) "What's missing in 'ch--ch'? Ur." -Church sign We saw this at a J-dubs church the other day. I laughed and laughed and laughed...I'm still laughing about it. All I could think of is Amanda and Emily saying "I love your". The sign ALMOST converted me to becoming a Jehovah's Witness because I thought it was so good. ;) Just keeding. They might have a good sign, but what they're really missing from their church is the Priesthood and a lot of lost truths as a result of the Great Apostasy. ALSO, they don't celebrate holidays and I would just absolutely hate that.
3.) "I'm just really angry today." -Me This quote was actually said today during grocery shopping. I woke up this morning really angry at everything. We were in the bread isle, and I picked up a loaf and said "I just want to squeeze this bread as hard as I can and then throw it across Wal-Mart." Sister Grant just laughed, but I was very serious. I think my anger is from a dream I had last night where I needed to run fast and I just couldn't. I was so frustrated. BUT, I think it's affecting my email. Sorry for the lack of pep and funny comments. I'm tellin' ya, I really did think missionaries were always happy and perfect. They're not. Well...at least I'm not.
4.) Thou shalt thank the Lord thy God in all things.” -D&C 59:7 Guess what? Even though I was in a bad mood this morning, I'm still really grateful for everything Heavenly Father has given me. I thank Him every night for letting me serve a mission, for my awesome companion, and for my eternal family. I live a wonderful life.
I love all of your.
Love,
Sister Reddish
