Hey Family! So I guess you heard something about me having that virus…Yeah I was debating whether or not to add it to the letter, but I figured since everyone else is sick, I can add my ailment to the list. Just so you know, I'm already better - don’t worry. I woke up the other day feeling weird. I couldn’t concentrate and then my stomach started hurting a lot. I threw up and I knew it was something other than my stomach aches. (which haven't bothered me since I've been here). Anyway I wanted to go out and work, but I was running a temp of 38 celcius = around 100 so the senior couple sister wouldn't let us leave the house. After I took everything that was consumable in our firstaid kit I went to sleep for a few hours then woke up, felt better and went out.(I FEEL GREAT NOW SO DON’T WORRY, IT WAS JUST A LITTLE BUG THAT WENT AROUND.) so that’s that.Right now I'm teaching a lot of people who have marriage problems. One of the families is thinking divorce, they need help. If anyone has some marriage advice it would be much appreciated.
I know who Harry Potter marries because a boy in the branch has the book, and one day we were over and I glanced at the last page.
Just so everyone knows, you pronounce Caribbean like "Pirates of the Caribbean" not the other way.
And I got a hair cut today, all they used were clippers. Think black man shave on a white boy. I need to make sure they keep it longer than they're used to cutting. 1836!

Q&A to Calm a Worried Mother
1. What did you eat yesterday?
It was fast Sunday sorry...hahaha. Well for breakfast I usually have granola and yogurt, or I make some scrambled eggs, and hash browns with a potato. Lunch I might eat something fast, however this last week I've cooked chicken and rice, stir fry, grilled pineapple, and a scoop of ice cream in a coconut. Other days it's just fried rice or mac n' cheese.
2. What is a typical day like for you?
Wake up, exercise , 2 hours of study (right now I'm working on Chapter 3 of Preach my Gospel), We go out and usually go to a few appointments, or travel to a farther area we don't normally work. Then come back for lunch. Afterwards we go out to St. Croix, which we call "the fertile ground". It's close to our apartment, and there are many families there I've seen baptized, and many more wonderful investigators.
3. What do you do on p-day? (besides laundry)
Today I scrubbed a small hole in my shirt when I was washing it. It's not that bad, all
the others are keeping up well enough, as long as I use a lot of bleach. Clean the apartment, email, shop (the store we go to is very modern and they deliver for free! So we sometimes stock up and have them deliver so we don't have to walk back with it. I'm working on drawing out a picture of everyone in the Zone from last Zone Meeting, and giving it to the President to attach to the letter head.
4. How is your health? Are you using sun-screen Are you using your insect repellant?
My health is fine. I sneeze a lot sometimes, there is a lot of dust in the air. I use sunscreen every day, and now i'm dark and I never seem to burn, (also it's very cloudy cause of the rain this time of year) And I use insect repellent every other day - the deet is so powerful it lasts a few days.
5. How are you clothes holding out?
My pants and shirts are fine, however, the buttons and clasps on the pants get destroyed in the wash "machine" so I have to sow them on a lot, or I usually just put the belt around my waist very tight and forget about it. You can send the extra pants if you want. But I think I'm gonna go
to the tailor and pick out some sweet fabric and have him make it for me. Ties are appreciated!
