This is officially the beginning of the end of my emails.
When a missionary hits 6 months on the mission it is customary for him to stop caring about sending emails home.
What can I say things are just too exciting here to care about all your lame lives at home.
For example just the other day I watched a guy put two things of chapstick up his nose.
Life us riveting out here friends, there is so much to do here in the small town of Roanoke rapids. In fact there is SO much to do in this town that everybody gets so overwhelmed by the sheer amount of activities going on that they all decide to just go to Walmart or go fishing.
Needles to say we spend a lot of time at Walmart throwing pamphlets at people.
The Walmart people don't seem to like that.
Here's another cool thing that happening to me and not you,
We are teaching this lady and this man and they are both cooks. One of them used to work in the white house and cooked for Bill Clinton, and the other works at bojangles as a cook and can get us free steak biscuits whenever we want. Pretty obvious who the better cook is in that household.
I'll give you a hint and not the answer (it's the guy that works at bojangles)
Yeahs so they're both really cool and have read and prayed about the Book of Mormon which is a big boy step.
Speaking of big boy steps.....
I am now officially in the 1000lb club. This week I deadlifted 460 to bring my 940 to an even 1000 lbs. Cuz my bench is still a clean 205 and my squat is a repped out 335 so boom that adds up to 1000. Can't tell you how happy I am about that. I have been working for a long time to get that.
I also texted a buttload of people that I did it right after I was done.
Yeah it's been a trip. Here's another little piece of information that you don't need to hear: I had to go to the hospital with Elder faussett. He had an ingrown toenail and I was on exchanges with him. It took us forever to finally get into the nurses office so we pretty much did no missionary work that day cuz we also had to drive back to Roanoke rapids to exchange back.
Whenever I don't do the best job that I can I really feel like a worthless nut so pray for my work ethic that it won't suffer while I'm trying to stay productive. I've definitely had companions that are willing to get out of work and stuff so that's a struggle sometimes. Don't worry were doing a lot of work I just feel like we never do enough.
My current partner elder farley is a lot like me and wants to get stuff done so that's very good for me.
Well sorry about not updating you guys last week but I'm sure you all suffered and care so much.
I painted a bench too. It sits in my front room now. Pictures will follow. Not of the bench
Love from the south, elder Bush
