Everything is going well here! not a lot happened this week, but we're on the brink of greatness :) Im missin fall weather for sure. the high for today is about 95 degrees and the desert is not very exciting, but thats ok! we dont tract very much, maybe about 45 min a day, just to fill time in between lessons. hopefully soon we wont even have time to do that. We taught 14 lessons this past week and hopefully soon we'll be up to about 22. We missed a few of our investigators last week and we've got a couple new ones that hopefully start progressing. P-day has been pretty lame today so far. We tried to play football today (side note: today is the 1 year anniversary of me breaking my leg, woooops! dont worry, it was touch football today and i wrapped my ankle), but our zone isnt very athletic and no one knew what they were doing. and then like 45 mins into the game, the park got evacuated because of a bomb threat. LAME. so we havnt done anything too exciting. haircuts and shopping later probably. Im not very happy with BYU of Ohio State and im almost glad i dont get to watch them, because they are failing me hardcore. good thing is, i have much better and more important things to worry about! I hate shaving. Thanks to all of you who emailed me this week, you got more updates than everyone else lol. Sorry I dont have more to say, it was kinda a building week, this next week will hopefully be more exciting. All is well tho! i have no complaints and things are going quite swimmingly! I enjoy hearing what yall are up to. Funny story for the week: Me and Elder M went and helped this old lady in her yard by picking pears for her. after we picked about 65 lbs of pears we talked to her for awhile. actually, mostly we just listened to her talk and we just threw rocks at each other lol. we did that for about an hour and she didnt notice what we were doing until Elder M threw a pine cone that almost hit her lol. it was reeeeally funny and we laughed pretty hard. Anyways, love you all! thanks for the updates! keep them coming :) yall are in my prayers, be safe :) youre favorite missionary, elder donovan :)
