importante!!!

ok so its not as important has the title would have you think, but its from
me!! so it gotta be of some importance right!? well i hope everyone is doing
well! things here have been very busy with transfers next week but we have
been able to get most things done. this next week however i will be in the
office for like 2 days straight with a guy from são paulo that has come to
do the audit for the mission! thats going to be exciting...doing
auditing!!!! hahaha gotta love it! well the only down side to this last week
is that because of all the stuff that the president had us doing we didnt
have hardly anytime to work in our areas. very little time if any, we have
been trying to get an apartment  remodeled to deliver on wed. we have been
getting ready for the family night that we have with all the missionaries on
the transfer day ( monday) and also getting things ready for the people
leaving and the people coming on tues. its has been a none stop week. most
of us are pretty exhuasted but we did get alot done, and hoply we will be
prepared enough for monday and tuesday, ( some of the busiest days of the
transfer) the only thing that i can be for sure of is that i know i am
staying in the office and also that i will be getting a new companion. so i
know you guys want to know what happens here in the office, so i will try to
explain a little;
well most of the days i have to spend quite a bit of time out of the office,
doing lots of things. lots of times i am in the bank to pay bills or things
like that, and man the banks here always....ALWAYS... have lines of like an
hour or two long. there are alot of people that live in this city!!! then i
have to buy something for the mission office or the presidente or the
missionaries. most of the times i am resolving a problem with a house or
apartment, ( rent, damage, or some type of complaint that the owner comes up
with- which tends to be alot) some times i have to resolve problems with the
cell phones on the mission, of the phones in the mission office and mission
home. really the most of the time i am resolving some type of problem that
has to do with someone getting paid for something. people that do work at
the mission home, people that do stuff here in the office for us, owners of
houses, people that do work on the missionaries houses for us...there is
always plenty to do here in the office. you have to keep on yourtoes and
always be ready to resovle something!!! hahaha but its good, i have been
learing alot about administration and finances. which will really help me in
the future. this is why i love saturdays so much now.....50% of the calls
that i get stop for the weekend, its just the missionaries that call me sat.
and sun.!! the weekend is the best thing there is!!! but then there is
always the stuff that i do in the office, i have to worry about paying the
missionaries every 2 weeks, and reimbursing them for stuff that the mission
pays for, like bills and what not. that and making sure that if they need
somthing that it gets takin care of.

well thats a good run down some of the stuff that goes on here. it really
does get pretty busy here but busy is good. its better then just sittin in
the office!!

from what mom was telling me, everyone has been home this past week, anne
and brandon, jill, kari, meg, jake, erin...the whole gang!!!

jake...PARABEMS!!!  (congradulations) its the temple awesome man!!! i would
really like to get a letter from ya man, telling me how it was, i really
would hav like to be there but no worries, there will always be lots of
times when we both get home!! well i am out of time, i got to get running
again, still got a few things to do before the night is over, just stopped
long enough to write you guys an email!!!
