I honestly don't remember what day it was the last time we wrote but that's alright! Life is crazy in the offices. We are always working and there is always stuff to do. We were changing a bunch of things with Pensionistas starting this month and so we've been working a lot with that. I spent a whole day doing that and transferring old information, gathering the new information from the missionaries, and then making new spreadsheets so we keep all the new information and start working with that. I did a fair amount of reembolsos this week. It´s a little hard sometimes because I always have missionaries calling me wanting to know where their money is!haha. A lot of them just don't understand how the money works in the mission and that we just have free cash to give them all the time.
We always have people staying in our house too. Whenever anyone is here for medical reasons or any other thing they always come stay at our house and it gets a little crazy. We work some pretty crazy hours here in the offices. Sometimes we have to be here at like 6:00 am and then other days we don't leave till after midnight haha. It all depends on what's going on in the mission and I honestly really like it. I miss being out in the field walking and contacting but this is just a new way to do missionary work for me. It's also cool to always be around Presidente Palhua, He's super cool and I really like him.
Other fantastic news I am finally in the system! To enter our offices you have to scan your fingerprint and all that good stuff and for the first while I was just going in as a guest. Being a guest always takes super long sitting in the line and it gets old.haha However this week they finally put me in the system!! woohoo! It's the small things in life. That's basically it for me.
I love and miss you guys and I love this Gospel and I'm so grateful for the privilege that I have to serve as a missionary here in Colombia!
Les Extraño!
