That time I got sick

So this week started off and we had great lessons in Tacoma and we learned a lot about following the Spirit. We taught the Word of Wisdom to one of our friends and saw the power as we testified to him of the truth of the revelation that Joseph Smith received. It was also wonderful to give him things that he could change about his life to improve the quality of it it was giving him power to change because he doesn't have a lot of things he can do to change his life situation but we gave him things to do and that was wonderful to see him want to change.

We are preparing Letitia to receive a patriarchal blessing! She had an appointment for yesterday! I'll tell how that went a little later.

(Elder Schoemig forgot to add what happened to Letitia, they had to postponed her patriarchal blessing because they cancelled church due to the snowstorm that Seattle has been having.)

Thursday we had MLC which was great of course and we learned about becoming "basic" missionaries, getting back to Preach My Gospel, having good studies, focusing on finding and teaching, we are excited. Also the mission exceeded out baptism goal for the month of January! That has never happened before! Also that morning I woke up pretty sick, and I had been getting kind of sick the two days before but just gotta keep on, so I woke up sick, went to MLC and was just by the end of it - basically the last two hours - was falling asleep and was so out of it and sick, it was rough, we then had to hurry down to Tacoma for a lesson and when we finally got home I was just so sick it was nuts. So I've been in the apartment since Thursday night except for Saturday we got super hungry and went out and bought a bunch of pizza and then yesterday we had ZLC meeting so that's been good.

In other news here in Washington, it snowed. Now I know all of you in Utah think, oh big whoop, but here it's a big deal, they don't have a lot of resources to deal with the snow, so people kind of freaked out, stores sold out of food, cars just stopped going, the city kind of shut down. It's been nuts. 

But that was my week! Love you all!
