Elder Greenburg Week 3

The weather here is always the same. Sunny. Haha. It was like 90 degrees yesterday. I had no idea because I just don't check that stuff. I was at a member family's home yesterday and they had a six year old and it was weird to think that Riley will be that age when I get back. I keep going through weird waves of thinking that the mission will be short and that it will be super long. You just have to take it a day at a time and then a transfer at a time. I past my month mark this last week. It seems like just yesterday, but a long time ago at the same time. Missions are weird in that way. I keep wondering when Ashley will have her baby, the kid just doesn't want to come out apparently, or her body has just gotten used to Andrew being in there. Hopefully it happens soon. Yeah, Jared emailed me and said he was headed back to Convergy's. That will be good since you said that he wasn't liking Sportsman's Warehouse. He cut his finger because he's a dope. We had a multi-zone conference on Thursday. It was fun. It was 8 hours of training, but it flew by. Daylight savings killed us this week. It sucked waking up an hour earlier than we're used to. We did however get Rafael, his wife Martiza, and his daughter Ashley to come to church on Sunday. That's 3 out of 5. I'm not sure where their sons were. They could only stay for Sacrament because the daughter is also investigating Jehovah's Witness as well. We're not concerned about it. The Spirit will confirm everything we say and she knows the gospel is true. We have a lesson with them later tonight.
I did get the package. It was a lot. Haha. . Thanks for the Bayside shirt. I wear that as often as I can. If you want to search on MerchNow.com and find some more Bayside or band merch, I wouldn't stop you. Haha.
The turtles and Butterfingers were good, as well. I've been eating a lot of Taco Bell. I just don't understand how something you love so much can hurt you so bad, but I keep going back. Haha. TB is a heartless witch, but I love her. I'm only at 145 pounds, though.
I've already been out of the mission and it's only been three weeks. Haha. i had an exchange with the Elder's who do ASL and they cover three missions. We ended up in Rancho Cucamuga. It was a good change of pace. We do a lot of walking to try and save miles.
McClain is super good. He's been having troubles with his stomach for the last year and the doctors can't figure out what's wrong, so some days he just can't work. So I sit and study. I've read Our Heritage, and Our Search For Happiness, and I just started Jesus The Christ. Elder Talamge is a freaking beast. That guy was on a whole different level.
I've been reading the Book of Mormon a lot as well. McClain is so good at it that if you just give him a chapter in any book in the Book of Mormon, he can tell you what is going on. I'll try to get to that point.
Don't hesitate to send pictures of everyone as well. I have a 16 gb flash drive that isn't full. Saturday was kind of a hard day. It was the first day out here where I didn't feel like working. I wasn't homesick or anything like that, just worn down and didn't want to work. It was going to happen eventually. I just need to pray and eat through it and ask the Lord for help. OYM's are getting better, though. We tract sometimes and when we do that our OYM's are more genuine than trying to get people to listen in the parking lot of an Albertson's or Stater Brother's. I don't like those because the make me feel like a salesmen.

We listen to a lot of Disney. I regret not seeing Frozen before I came out, because I know that soundtrack like the back of my hand now. Haha. Send me some CD's of Disney music. Tarzan, Hercules, Lion King, Mulan, anything you can think of. I'm kind of desperate for new music. I have a constant soundtrack of different bands going through my head. If you could find my black Neff beanie and send it as well that would be great. Tell Matt, Aurora, Courtney, Trevor, Lee, Tyler Lee, and everyone else to email me. Those punks.
I think that's all I have for now.
Love and Miss you all
Elder G-Dizzle
