hey family, how is everything going, everything is going fantastic with me, this last week has been pretty good, so today has been pretty good, really lazy style but not bad at all. we stayed the nigh again in necochea with the other elders. and the plan was to have an asado but the the other two that were supposed to come didn't until later. so we saved it for the lunch. but we met up at the zls house and played monopoly. i think i would have won, but we didn't have time to finish. and that's all we have been doing today, it was raining a little bit earlier so we didn't go out. its been getting colder here, just finishing up the summer and into the fall now, its kinda sad, al well. its about time. so this last week has gone y really fast. alot of random meetings with people. so Thursday just the usual, the district meeting, so they came to our chapel. we had a little success with our investigator marcelo. he came to most of church, for the gospel principles class and for most of sacrament meeting, but then he had to leave in the middle to go buy some food before all the stores closed for siesta. so hopefully we can progress more with him. then on Saturday it started to rain, and we decided to go out anyways for this lunch appointment, they live about 8 blocks away and we got soaked on the way it was pretty funny. that's one thing that's picking up is the lunch appts. my comp is pretty good at them. hes a bit of a smooth talker with the members. lol some elders call him "el buscador" or the finder. i think it rings true. but i like it, we get to eat more. and i get to save more money. that's another thing, i have done really well with my money this time around, we have a week left and i still have 150, so i think ill be fine. now i just have to keep it up. the other day we played soccer with some youth in the area, that was fun. i find that I'm not really up to par but if i just muscle it a little then i can hold my own. the other day i made some corn bread, it was actually decent, i was proud. I'm getting better at cooking. now if only Spanish grammar was as easy. so yesterday we had the ward council meeting, that was the most insanely boring thing ever, Argentines talk and talk and talk, they don't know when to stop, it went or about 2 hours. pretty ridiculous. so the other day i had one of the "everything annoys me" moments, that kinda sucked. i think it was the headache i had. but it was all good after lunch. well that's all i have to say today. love you all. ill try to bring my journal next week so i can give you more details. i love you all
