Hey there,
I have some downtime, so I figured I would write a longer letter!
Thanks for the package! I'm sittin' here listening to "The Work" CD, poppin' Pez and wearin' my new pajama bottoms! :)
We actually just got back from Target & Kroger's with Monty. I'm so thankful he can give us a ride shopping! But, I'm down to $4! But what food I have should last me around another two weeks. I still haven't got my missionary blue card yet, so I have had to use the money you sent me for food & bike parts.
I'm getting ready to blow up my bike! The back axle is broken, so it wobbles as I ride, but, it's still ride-able. And, the front rim is bent, so I don't use my front brakes because they rub so bad. Haha, my seat also got stolen a few weeks ago, so I took one off an old broken bike. That may sound like a lot of issues, but I'm ok with it all. I'm past getting upset, I just laugh and say "O.I.D." in my head. It means "Only In Detroit!" It's all for the experience, so I figure there is no point in fighting it!
The baptism for Elec is this Sunday - I'm pretty stoked. She is way solid and she is prepared. I don't know how I'm gonna get pics to you guys, because the library here won't let you get pics off a memory card, so I'll probably just have to print them off & mail 'em. We'll see, though!
So...!! Did you get my Christmas card? We decorated on 9/26 and I found a box of 16 Christmas cards. I didn't get everyone like I wanted, because of the number of cards, but I want Christmas here! I decided to skip Halloween & Thanksgiving, both not fun holidays as a michiganary in the city, ha!
You have to tell Emmy that she has to send me lots of refills for the Pez, because I'm already out! :o
So, I'm gonna send a few packages home here once I get some money. There will be some stuff for all of you, and some stuff just to store for me as mementos. Sound good?
Hey, so this part is for Brett. If he could get some sweet talks & put them on my iPod (if he's not using it, and if he is, that's totally ok) and send it out here, that'd be sweet. Turns out we can have an MP3 or iPod. I had the idea a while ago, but I never took the thought seriously 'til the cold hit and we started doing an extra hour of study more often. :) Haha.
Here's some McDonald's Monopoly pieces. :) I figure if you get pieces from across the states, you'll have a higher chance to win! :)
Hey, about the wallet - Grandma sent me a wallet last week, I think - and it has a little wallet that came with it, so that's what I'm using right now. Thanks though.
So! I've decided that I'm going to sing a song from "The Work" CD for the Christmas party. :) I've listened to it like 4 times through already, throughout the day!
Well, I've gotta get going! Hope to hear from ya soon! Love you all!
~ Peace out,
Elder Jones
