September 6th Weekly Letter

Hello Everyone sounds like things are nice and tranquilo back home. With the exceptions of  hurting backs and surgery is never fun. Hope yall can feel better! 

Not too much is new. The sisters in my group go home in december!!!! I cant believe it. Its crazy. I will most likely still be in the office until then. I am now the financiero of hte mission. Or the financial assistant to president. I am scared because it was a surprising move. Normally the new guy comes in from the field and trains a whole transfer but i have been given 3 days. Well see how this goes. I am extremely stressed out. Probably unhealthy. But what can ya do. I think its the most stressed i have ever been in my whole life. Its wild. I hate it, but i love it. (p90x motto) I may need to start doing push ups and ab ripper every morning. I am seriously very stressed and worried 24/7. But i am excited becasue after all this i will look back very satisfied. For now i am just praying i dont make a huge mistake with a check at the bank or an error in the pensiones or caja chica. I am super nervous ahhhh!

But oh well. That is my transfer. My n ew companion will be elder Cárdenas. I dont know him and he gets here tomorrow. Well see. i am also nervous for this guy coming in cause he has a lot to learn and a lot to do. Its a mess right now, the office. Lots of crazy things going on. 

I havent had a second this week to go to the area and work. But still we are texting with our investigators and they understand and will come to church still. They are capos.

Elder Furlanich, one of my best friends is leaving the office so im a little sad. At least i have my old comp from el salvador elder castillo. I lvoe that guy! Also elder Da Silva from brazil is coming to be the new secretary. 

Ummmm. We moved into our new pension. Its closer so thats good. The only problems are the water heater is busted and we have icy showers!!! Its the worst! Also, there is a handle already broken and stuff and theres no toilet seat. But its pretty nice anyways. I have hte guitar still and will keep it in the closet until i leave the office. Boy i miss playing that sweet thing. I might talk to president and tell him i need to play to releave stress. Honestly it helps me, i cant explain it.

So thats about it. I think were going to have an asado tonight to celebrate everything. Thats just an onslaught of meats so i am excited for that! 

I have been trying to learn every second of the day the things i need to know to be the financiero and have been in the office most the days. On friday we had our zone conference. They asked me to give a 20 minuite taller or message. Just another thing to worry about. Also i am still a district leader with 4 hermanas ;o the hermanas are so high maintenance. But its ok. I have so much responsibilities i cant wait to drop and start winding down everything but right now im doing a crud ton of work. I lvoe it but miss being a missionary knocking doors and experiencing the streets.

I get a cool taste of the mission going to banks, and seeing the city so its not all bad. But man i am stressed for sure.

I lvoe you all! any questions? Stay trill!

Elder Westensee
