So my diet is over i have declared it a fail!!! 

Sweets and soda are the only things that keep
me going some days the strain
that is on my brain 

its made even worse when it rains!!!

mainly out in the plains!!!!

ok i have no idear what i am saying but man is being a district leader stressful thinking ahead and preparing trainings that will hopefully help the people in the district. 

But i am doing it and i will keep doing it until the very end.......... i think that was the plan to push the pedal to the metal for the last leg!!!

Things in Kearney are starting to get rolling. We do have a baptism coming up this weekend!!!! Which we be awesome!!! its for a 14yr old girl named Alyssa, she is the first of her family. during this whole time teaching her the family has supported her and no the mom is really start feel the spirit but she doesn't want us to push her, good thing for her we are just teachers not pushers that's the holy-ghosts job!!!!!

We also had an investigator set her self for baptism last night she set her self for October 17th She has been to church once she has a great fellow shipper. she does have some WOW issues to resolve but she wants to stop smoking but her family that lives with her smokes!!! tough.... But she has the desires!!!!  

 

So the craziest thing about being Kearney is that we have the same amount of miles as i did in Omaha.... crazy little fun fact and the area out here is a lot bigger then in Omaha!!!!

So update on my back its not doing better but i am making sure that i am being careful when we do service and when i have to do anything using my back!!! I am doing stretches that i have just figured out that help my back feel less tight. I am talking to people in the ward to try and find a doctor here in town and for the most part people don't really go to the doctors out here in Kearney the just rub some dirt on it and call it good. The magic dirt doesn't work for me at all!!!

Elder Brownie and i are doing well we arent the best team teachers but we are trying to improve or teaching skills together!

I have figured why in a letter from President Gardner he tells us to say we have been out for a little over a year members kinda go a bit crazy when you say 21 or 22 months and the members kinda shut down and think that you are getting trunky. i have been trunky and right now throttles are full force!!!!!!!

As we used to say in wrestling Short Time! Short time was said both ways if your losing and holding out from being pin or if you are winning going for the pin to apply that last bit of energy you have to finish the way you want to finish. Not being pinned Or pinning them!!!!

Finishing strong!!!!! Short Time!!!!!! Return With Honor!!!!!

Dont let anyone tell you what you can or cant do!!!!
