I've been carrying a carton of eggs around for a day

Welcome back to the weekly re e regine πŸ‘ΈπŸ€΄!! (That means kings and queens if you dont know Italian. Honestly i dont know Italian either so dont feel too bad if you dont.) This week flew by so the fact I'm writing another email is crazy. 


This week we had a little Scambio action (exchange) with me and another greenie. It was totally awesome because neither of us speak Italian so you can imagine how two American white girls got around in Italy. 
We went on a grand adventure to go visit a meno attivo and it was just a chill hour long walk πŸ€™πŸ» Anyways that hour long walk was so worth it because it was my first in person lesson and we taught this sweet lady and the spirit was so strong. And HOLY SHAZAM you guys the gift of tongues is SO FOR REAL. It's not just a myth. Maybe my mission is just a Mythbusters episode because I keep busting myths. Anyways, in the lesson I felt so confident in my Italian and understood just about every word this lady was saying. It was crazy lit fire. 
WOWZA. We had an insane monsoon/hail storm but we had a lesson planned that was about an hour and a half walk this time πŸ˜ƒ so we took up our umbrellas put on some hefty rain coats and boots and headed to this queens house. Welp folks. It was infact not her house. That was awesome. But me and Sorella Crane made the most out of walking through the literal rivers In the streets. The rest of the week was pretty chill. I didn't step in any dog poop this week CAN I GET AN APPLAUSE?!?! but who is hyped for general conference?!?!?! I know I am excited to cuddle up in a blanket and get to watch something for 10 hours while being spiritually uplifted ALL AT THE SAME TIME?!?! I think yes. 
The language is coming along folks.  I just have been praying for the gift of patience because I know it will come in the Lord's timing if I just put in effort. I seriously love it out here every single day and have so much fun. Don't get me wrong, days are hard but I've learned to just find the happy and just laugh. There will ALWAYS be something you can find joy in. 
Sorry guys I took no pictures this week. But I attached some videos so hopefully they work!! 
Love,
Sorella Coon πŸ«ΆπŸ€ŒπŸ»πŸ©·
