Letter #24

Hi Fam. WutSss up? Notta lot here.. It's like snowin a bit.. .It looks like a big fluffy snow bAll here. Its FREEZING!!! So we tracted in like 10 degree weather the other day and I almost cried cuz I felt like I had the frost bite.. BUT I kept goin and I felt fine after I said myself a lil prayer.. haha so I am training a Sister named Amanda Bean.. and guess where she is from MONTANTA.. She is doin great. I don't think she is homesick.. BUT MAN when we first got together I was so like stressed out and overwhelmed.. I got these really big headaches and I felt so emotional and mentally overwhelmed.. Cuz I was doing EVERYTHING.. I mean teachin the whole lesson and all that and It kinda overwhelmed me. I am not so stressed out now. She is talkin a lot more at doorsteps and stuff and I am teachin her how to communicate with people. She told me she was homeshooled the past 5 years and has never had to talk to anyone
(literally).. So I am teaching her everything.. from how to talk on the phone to how to buy groceries and how to manage her money. She never went to college and stayed home taking care of her brothers while her mom worked. She is doin GREAT though. She is really progressing everyday. She is getting over here fear of people.
The other day she was like "sister furniss I want to be just like you.. how do u get so confident in yourself.. "... lol.. I was like I didn't know I was! ha ha.. I guess the mission sure does change you and your perspectives... I guess I am a lot more confident in communicating with people. I hate awkward silence when first meeting someone.. I think I prolly talk a lil too much! HA HA... The other day I told her she better talk to me. HAHA.. so now we justu chat and chat all days long... We have a senior couple here with us named Elder and Sister Black. They are from New york. I am basically training the senior couple and Sister Bean. I am tryin not to carry too much burden on me.. but oh its hard.. ha ha
We didn't do anything on New years. We basically just went to bed.. haha.. On new years Day we went to a members and had lunch with her and her family. It was pretty fun. She is hilarious..I am doin PReTTy GOOD though. I am tryin to just work my lil butt off.. HOw did ya'll like those pics from my sim card???? Do u have any questions? ha ha.. How are easty and livvie doin?? What fun things are they doin nowadays??? Time sure does fly. I will be home in like 9 months almost..AH! ha ha
WeLL I hope all is well. I love you guys so much.. Keep on Keepin DA fAIth..
Luv
SistER Furniss
