My PEEPS! :) Hi how are ya? I'm just here in Kansas. Serving de Lord. Well this week was awesome not awesome. But actually it was awesome :) So Monday was p day and we only saw one person that night. Then Tuesday we had an awesome district meeting and got super pumped to do missionary work and had all of these crazy high goals and then we had to email so most of our day was gone. Plus something emotional happened that I'll get to later that took some time to recover from so we only saw like one person. Griz. It was Griz and he is my favorite :) But then on Wednesday we had a Sister's conference which took all day!! and we only saw like 2 people. So it was already 1/2 through the week and we have no numbers! Wow! So much for high goals and even meeting standard. We stink as missionaries. J/K THE LORD LOVES US!!! The next few days we were jammed pack busy and full of miracles. woot woot! It's the best feeling ever! We found 3 new investigators in 2 hours one day, taught 3 member present lessons another and just a ton of other awesome stuff! So yeah. We met our goals and blew standard out of the water as a district :) WOO! So yeah so ok. Ok. I have a confession. I'm supper embarrassed. I wasn't going to tell anyone about it for months because I was too emotional to talk about it but now it's ok :) haha! I Dumb got pulled over Tuesday and got a stupid speeding ticket. The road that I was driving on is a pretty busy road and I thought it was 40 the whole way. But there's one part I guess where it turns to 35 for a few blocks and I was following another car and wasn't paying attention and was talking really loud when the lights flash! I had a mini panic attack. No joke. I was faREAKING OUT! I've never even been pulled over before. I was in the left lane coming up to an light and instead of pulling over to the right I pulled into the left turning lane! haha! I didn't know what to do and was kind of frantically yelling and what not. but I finally get over onto the right side of the road and talk to the officer and I was already crying and he gave me a ticket and I pulled into a parking lot and cried my little heart out :) haha! It was tramatic! I just felt so stupid because I've been trying to repent of my past and drive more safely with the Lord's cars and be more responsible and what not. But FAIL. All of my missionary insecurities came out in that stupid ticket. I had my compy call mission president because I couldn't talk clearly on account of I was sobbing hysterically. She was so nice to me though and we just sat there for like 30 minutes while I felt bad for myself. It was a hard start to the week but I'm ok now :) It's ok. I didn't get suspended from driving because it was a speed trap but I mostly feel awful about the fine. DUMB! I was even getting better at road rage and everything! I've only road raged once and that was because my beloved Garmin took me down the most random and confusing and dumb stupid way ever to a member's house who lived off of a main road! Silly Garmin. Anywho. We had an awesome week. The sister's conference was great and I met my "grandma!" She's a legend and has so much posterity! Ok well maybe I'd have more to tell you but there's a strange man who is sitting directly behind me who I think is waiting for my computer because he's starring at it. He might even be reading over my shoulder. If you are, maybe you could back up a bit, or find a book to read while you wait. I've still got 25 minutes. He hasn't moved so I'm a bit uncomfs and am going to have to say goodbye for now :) I love you all and hope this week goes well for all! Brothers I love you! I seriously think about you all the time! The elders serving with me remind me so much of you and I wish we could just be serving together! Well too del loo! Love, Sister Herrin
