Christmas Church Video, Upcoming Apostle Visit...and Home talk

Well mom, I destroyed my camera. It fell off a selfie stick...but you know Scott, yea my brother, him, do you know him?? Okay, well, he gave me his camera just before I left and I have never used it because I had the Canon but I had it and it works and now I have a camera so pictures will still be coming thanks to Scotty!! (Thank you Scott!). I did have quite the adventure trying to find a card for it,but I found one.

I also had another doctors appointment this week and finally I got some decent information after ten doctors. Not really, but after like 4, he told me it was a pinched nerve and if I do these good, but very painful, stretches for 2 months, I'll be fine. So that's good to hear. 

So as for February, I don't think I am going to come out after all. I have been thinking and I think I want to wait until maybe August and just see my folks (Yeah!!) I don't want to rush back, I want to get settled in and spend time with all of you at home. I've also been thinking about school this week, and Hawaii is really feeling right so I am going to look into that here soon as well. But enough about home talk. 

Things here are going good. We killed a Satan spider this week. It was on the roof and we squashed it but it didn't die. It fell on my bed so we decided to vacuum it up and then the vacuum started to smoke billows and so we ran outside. It was crazy, haha, a crazy spider adventure. 

We got training this week from President on the new church Christmas video. It opens on November 25 and is called, 'Serve 25 ways over 25 days'. The church wants us to do one act of service a day this season. Go to LDS.Org, it should be on there, check it out, it's going to be so cool. We also have an Apostle coming to our mission on the 10th, then a big mission Christmas party, so it will be busy for me haha. And I won't tell you which Apostle, you will get a bit jealous haha.  

It is going to be a busy last 8 weeks. Elder Mitra is a visa waiter and he goes to India in a week, so I'll have to get a new comp for a week. It has been busy haha no stop, go, go, go.

Well, I love you all so much. I am doing good. I am at a high point right now. Things are moving forward, still a bit nervous for the next few months, but it's good. I love you all so much. 
Take care, keep busy and I'll talk to you soon!!

Love Elder Routledge
