This Week Has Been CRAY - TRANSFERS!


So let's just start with we did service at Habitat for Humanity and that always drains me like nothing else. It's wicked hot, and I'm working with two grown up versions of Garret Hendershott hahaha. Like the one version was in the navy or something and has tattoos and a barely visible kind of mustache thing, and the other is the one that's like a perpetual boyscout who looks like he's about to go build a cabin in the woods and hike around. I love them both, but it's just really weird to see that hahaha. For those of you who knew Garrett Hendershott that will sort of make sense.

Anyway, so like 3 hours at Habitat doing random things in like 90 degree weather.

And a ton of missionary work stuff. Making calls, taking a gazillion pictures with people for Hermana Sanchez (and I was like eh, maybe I should take some too in case I get transferred, eh probs won't but just in case), teaching English classes and whatnot. 

It all came up to Sunday where we got two of our less actives to church!! And so I'm copying down my talk from my ipad onto paper and our kinda crazy less active just kind of blurts out her question of if Joseph Smith had a ton of wives back in the day, do modern day prophets still do that? And we're all like...uhhh porque ahorrita? Poor teacher. She handled it really well, but the whole room went off and it took a while. Haha. Anyway, then I gave my talk!! YAY me! It went pretty well I think. I think there were a couple parts where my verb tense was a little off, but I just kind of said those really fast hahaha, otherwise I think it went quite well. Our recent convert came up to me after the meeting ended and gave me a little note that said it was really nice and that my Spanish was pretty and she loves me and she drew my name <3 Hna and then a giant cloud SO CUTE. 

And then Monday was a normal day since transfers and it was rough. We went to mail our parking ticket we got a couple weeks back when we went to Old Sac (lame) and I put my bag on the floor of the car, and went to get out to mail the envelope, and ha! instead of walking like a normal person I kind of flew out of the car onto the pavement because my bag strap had caught my foot. It felt like I leaped out of the car with the purpose of landing in the gutter. I promptly stood up-didn't swear- and mailed that darn envelope and got back in the car. Hna Sanchez thought it was pretty great. I even hit my knee getting back in the car too. And then later we visited a family and they rescued a pigeon and it pooped on my skirt. It came out fine, but when I was in the bathroom to wash it off, the daughter has dyed her hair and I thought I got some hair dye on my skirt, but I think it's okay. And then FINALLy we got transfer calls and we were with the maldonados, just Rosa, Ana, and Carolina, and we go the call and I'm leaving Rancho!!! WHAT leaving. me. rancho! so they all kind of teared up but they promised to come to english class tonight so we can take one last picture. I'm going to miss them so much. We have so much going on here in Rancho! We have 5 people on date, and Jose might bring his kids to church this sunday, and we just added a family as investigators!! Transfer miracles, happens every time I hear. Ah well. Yep, so I'll be going to East Sac. I've heard great things about it. I think we live with a member? and I'll have 2 copmpanions!! Trio Time for Hna McCloud. We'll see how this goes kids. Craziness. I've met both of them before but I don't really know them. Craziness. Can't believe it. 

Anyway, love you all!!! <3 HNA MCCLOUD
