I went on a killing spree...
...killing mosquitoes in our house
For 3 nights, my roommates and I were devoured. I have no idea how many bites I have but its a lot. The mosquitoes would fly by our ears and Sunday night I was up most of the night trying to hide from them. So when I got home yesterday I went crazy and killed them dead. And we slept so good last night.
I hate mosquitoes.
I’m itchy.
Okay that made it sound like there were a swarm in our room.
There were really only two.
But it was awful anyways.

There is another Sister Steel (no e at the end) here at the CCM! She is awesome! We like to talk about how awesome our last name is. Its pretty great. We took a picture this morning.
Oh, right, the housing thing. We got into a tiny room in that little casa. Our shower and sink were broken so we had to get them fixed so we didn’t have a shower for 2 days (don’t worry we used some friends’ showers). It was also really dirty in there so we had to clean. But I like our tiny room because were all so close anyway.
Last Wednesday (every Wednesday we have a service project, basically some chores haha) we folded a bunch of sheets. I folded fitted sheets almost the whole time with the other Hermanas in my zone (the Elders folded the easy stuff jaja). It was funny because the little Hispanic man who was the supervisor told me (in Spanish of course so it took awhile for me to get what he was saying) that I was really talented at folding the sheets haha "¡¡muy rapido rapido!!" he said. It was really silly. Also they had Disney songs blasting in Spanish the whole time so that was super fun to sing along to.
My district tells me I sing like Sleeping Beauty and Anastasia.
Elder Brinkerhoff one morning last week walked into the classroom and pointed at me and sang real loudly "SINCE YOU BEEN GOOONE" so I pointed back and replied with "I CAN BREATHE FOR THE FIRST TIME!" and now we do that all the time to each other.

| Just a fun one...yep |
I go play foosball after dinner with Elder Backus and sometimes Hermana Cole and Elder Dessauer and Elder Flores play too. It’s so intense and fun. We play with 3 balls to keep it interesting. The other day a worker dude came out and asked if everything was okay. hahahahahahaha I was so excited that I won that I accidentally on purpose high fived the wall really hard. I think the guy was scared.
Yesterday we got to teach an inactive member of our church (Samantha, 17) and a young man who was just baptized Sunday (Diego, 18). It was so hard to understand what they were saying. But I really felt the spirit there. They, and another girl who I didn’t teach, were taught by 3 sets of missionaries from our district. They said that all three of them now want to serve missions. BOOM. MISSIONARY WORK. It was so awesome. I loved talking so Sam and Diego. Their hearts are so special.
Heavenly Father is constantly blessing me with patience. Okay so I want everyone to read this talk if they have time. https://www.lds.org/broadcasts/article/ces-devotionals/2013/01/i-will-give-myself-to-him?lang=eng
Now I actually haven’t read it since I saw it in November. All I remember is that it was amazing. I was thinking about it today and I don’t remember anything the guy said, but I remember that it was a very special devotional to me and I am going to read it again after I send this email. I hope someone will benefit from it.
