More Service LOL

This is the first week where I've really felt the heat. It was 94 before 9:30am. It's pretty terrible with humidity haha. But Pday we got to spend some time with an awesome member to go mountain bike for a bit then we went over to this ranch that had a bonfire (even though it was insanely hot outside) and a zipline and hammock and stuff. We went with the district and got to hangout with all of us before transfers. I stayed in my wards with my comp but we had two sisters leave and one sister brought In to make the sisters a trio which has been interesting cuz they are some different personalities haha. We went to that horse ranch to mow and weed whack some more but found a bunch of turtles everywhere which makes it a little more fun haha. One of our friends that's exploring the church decided it wasn't for him which was sad but we are still working with him. Angel is still killing it. That was all pretty much for the week. Pretty slow week. But then Friday, Saturday, and Sunday were just packed full of meetings over zoom for hours and service. This single mom in a neighboring ward moved into a house that was abandoned for 7 or more years so it's pretty wrecked but we got a ton of yard work done for her. The pool in the backyard is just jammed with tadpoles and frogs it's pretty sweet. Water was disgusting but as we worked in the heat it was looking pretty good. Thought about fake tripping to fall in haha. A lot of southern accents too which is funny to hear them say "over yander" and just weird little things, I eat it up, makes me smile. Then we moved a family out of there house in a speedy fashion, all with face masks on not being able to freaking breath. We pulled out yet another tree and planted a garden in another yard. This wasnt one of my families but she told us she wanted to get baptized while smoking a cig which was exciting but we arent really sure if she understands what's gonna need to happen haha. Shes an awesome lady though. But we did it all in some crazy heat and humidity. Sweat through EVERYTHING. Got my first tick too. We did a canned food drive as well with the sisters which was pretty fun to just hangout and talk about fun stuff. I got pretty sick Saturday night and all Sunday day (I think from some fried liver). And it was fast Sunday so I was just straight up not having a good time. But right as we broke our fast a member texted us and brought us over a steak dinner out of no where. Happy days. I honestly can't believe two things. How bad I hate Samsung phones and how much I love morning personal study and comp study. I'm not a morning person really at all so for me it's a miracle haha. Not only that but getting put in two amazing wards with a baller comp. I know theres a lot of things going on out there right now but theres this song that a little girl sings on Facebook about there being no peace on earth but PEACE IN CHRIST. Take some time to find permanent peace in your daily life :) love you all.
