15 August 2016 Puoco Tempo

Dear friends and family,

Todays word is "dedo" meaning: "finger" because I literally cant think of a better one.

Sorry folks, this ones gotta be short. My family moved to Washington this last week, so I spent some extra time soaking in the chaos that happened.

Anyways, lets get to it. Im just gonna do bullets:

—I have heard multiple times from multiple people that I speak Portuguese with an interesting accent... I hear that I carry an Italian accent which is super cool! (im really proud of it too) But most importantly people tell me I dont have an American accent... as such a lot of people think Im from scottland or ireland instead of america. Ive also inevitably inhereted a bit of a brazilian accent from elder Marques... so yeah thats cool.

—We had a zone meeting this week, it was really good, learned a lot, and ate domino´s afterwards, whaddyaknow

—This weekend was rough. I hardly slept Sat. night, so sunday was pretty rough. I had really bad stomach pains and then a stiff neck developed afterwards, felt like someone stabbed me in the neck with a curling iron... But we still worked like normal. By the end of the day I wanted to vomit and my whole body ached like crazy... but hey gotta keep on going.

This pday has been cut short, hence the short email. It ends at 2pm instead of 6, and we still have a lot to do today. President Tavares said we arent baptizing enough people, so weve lost a privelege haha. We will take that time to study instead. An interesting move on his part, but we do need to better our work here, so the extra time to study may come in handy!

Anyways I cant spare anymore time. Hope you guys enjoyed this little letter.

I know, no photos... sorry.
And dont worry, Im starting to feel better now.
