Transfer calls were last night.. I was so nervous. We didn't get a call for awhile last night. We were at the Downey's eating dinner and I just kept waiting. Finally we called our Zone Leaders and asked if we are getting transferred.. Nope! I am staying here in Washington with Sister Stratford for another 6 weeks! We are so happy! This will be the longest transfer that Sister Stratford has been with one companion!
This week was pretty good. Sister Stratford had a bad week haha.. She dyed her hair and it turned orange and so we ran to Walmart and got a different color and then she dyed it again and it turned bright bright blonde.. with spots of orange haha.. we are going to figure out her hair this week sometime haha. It was kind of funny.
Sister Currie wasn't at church yesterday and we met with her Saturday and she keeps drinking coffee every morning! We went over the importance of it and we are going to try and put sticky notes up everywhere, like you mentioned, to help her remember.
So Thursday we were invited to go to a non members barn for dinner with 40 other non members in Bath. We went with Brother Baldwin and his daughter and his son. It was so good! We met so many people and they noticed that we were missionaries. It was fun to talk to them and get to know them. We were told not to preach but just talk and get to know them. I tried pig tail .. yeah it was gross. It is salty and mostly fat. So this dinner was total red neck style. Everyone was wearing camo and then they took us in the back of the barn and they showed us a deer that was shot and then cleaned and hanging. They invited me to go shooting.. which I can't, but I could go and help them clean one out! That would be so fun haha. I told them I want to learn how to hunt. Brother Baldwin told us that he has 2 friends that want a Book of Mormon. We are so excited! Bath is going to be converted. Just wait.
I haven't gotten a coat or blanket yet.. but I think I will buy some at Walmart or ask Downey's for a blanket.. The weather here changes every day.. like today I am wearing shorts and a shirt. haha but it does rain often.. no snow but ice storms will come, I'm sure.
Love you! -Love Sister Joni Putnam
I finished the Book of Mormon this week! It only took 2 transfers! (: I love the Book of Mormon so much! I learned a lot. Here is the link for the talk on sarcasm. It is really good.
