I'm alive, just so you all know. The weather has been ubsurd here! It's seriously just reminded me of Katrina. I know its not near that bad but the roads have been closed and the internet down for days. I got special permission to write today from the mission pres thanks to your email to them yesterday. We've been doing some disaster clean up help the past few days. A lot of people we've talked to say they haven't seen a storm like that in 20 years here. We went to a members trailor monday and he was very lucky to get everything saved. I have pictures i'm going to try and send! Houses completely up to the roof in water! So sad! I have so much i want to write but we're at the public library and under a 30 minute rule again. Seems like the mtc. Monday i'll have a lot more time. Looks like you should be good to send me letters in the mail if they get here by next week. I am thinking i should be able to call once i get my visa but i'm not completely sure. Just kind of in limbo here.! We've found a few new investigators and have had some really really good lessons. I hope i'll be here to see a baptism because there are about 5-6 or six that we have got lined up since i've been here. Just an fyi, the day the storm hit we lost our car to repairs. We we're walking the streets when it hit, water up to our knees everything in my backpack completely 100% ruined. Scriptures and all. Really depressing! Better scriptures than our house! (which happens to be flooded but still livable). Be thankful what you have back home. If you think you have it bad think of what these people are going through here! No house, no job, no where to go. It's sad, and we're trying our best to give them the one thing that can save them! As for some little details yes we cook breakfast and lunch on our own. Dinner is always with a member. We have washer and a dryer for our laundry. I'm sending a package home with a bunch of things including my xd card (i found my other one) still cant seem to loose that habit of loosing everything. I love you all, read Moroni 8:3. I have a lot more to write you back about but it'll have to be Monday! Love ya all
