Isabella's Letter

popcorn cant live without it!‏i live with two other sisters one is colombian she is so nuts and fun and gets crazier as the sleepiness sets in the other is this really tall quiet farmer from utah who is also really witty and then my companion who i think usto be a cheerleader type before her mission but she has so many problems with her health right now that she cries almost every day at companionship study and then asks me all that she should do and shouldnt do and i carry her books for her bc her back aches and its a bit tough sometimes but i have the two other sisters to play it off on which trully is a blessing. everynight we chat all four of us and then eat popcorn we make at home and laugh and make a huge mess and then i get pissed at them all in a funny not serious way and then run around gathering their crap, its fun. i am also gathering fruit from the trees and saving the seed... but how to smuggle it? hmmm this weeks numbers were low compared to whats attainable here in bolivia as a goal but so much better from las week and even though i feel pressure to baptize and meets the number goals as long as i see progress its all good.in my las area although i loved hna palma she was very hurt emotionally as a child and i had to do almost everything by myself because she was shy ans affraid and teaching her with lots of patience which isnt a quality that just emanates from me ha ha and then she has her meltdown when she knew i was leaving and that was so stressful but i couldnt break for the ward or the investigators or my companion and especially for the lord. after that storm and now this one im living with my companion possibly being sent home i just have to carryone i remember the necklace janice wears be still i want one that says all is well. i havent unloaded everything that has gone one here because it would just be too much and i already feel that my emails are like vent sessions sometimes. but hna ortega said sister you have gone through so much stuff here in the mission i think your going to be the wife of an apostle someday and the lord is teaching you how to deal with stress. maybe who knows right. i love my mission i love who i can see myself becoming i love that the lord is so patient with me that he is so patient with us all that he is trully a loving being, God is Love. and learning the area well and hopefully they leave me one more transfer in the area because i finally have got the right rythm. hna crossley trained me and i opened area in sucre and now again in cala cala and ive learned so much of the culture the traditions i move and flow like a bolivian and i just pray that i can be a tree of good fruit by the end of my mission. today i have 8 months in the mission and thats a bit scary. i love you all and i look forward to someday opening a site our own to make organic food available to more peeps.
