Flooding!


This week was a bit crazy. Fast forward to Thursday night - I get a call from the bishop and he tells me that Boston is flooded. No rain at all but high speed winds.  It was nuts. Webster and I went into downtown Boston and sure enough water is coming off the rivers like crazy and downtown as all flooded.  So we took pictures and then went back to our flat to find that we are 1 inch away from being flooded!!  Webster was freaking out haha it was really funny.  I phoned president and took care of it.  So no flood but our house and the one next to us were the only ones that didn’t get flooded on the whole Norfolk street.  How crazy is that!!  Blessings. But loads of houses were flooded.  But because I was sick Friday, Saturday and Sunday we couldn’t do a lot.
Saturday a member took us to Lincoln to see Europe’s biggest Christmas market!! So many people. I have never seen so many people in my life at one time. Sunday a few members pulled me aside and asked me if I was okay.  I said I was and then they asked me why it looks like I’m about to cry. I have just been having a hard time with my comp and the work not going how I want it to go.  But later that day Donna phoned us. She is out of the hostpital and wants to get baptized still.  She was upset with me when I moved it to Dec 20th instead of the 14th. So that was a blessing. We also today got a media referral from salt lake temple square. A couple in our area went to visit and so we are going to try and see them this week if I stay. 

Tonight we find out all the transfer news.  I wanna stay for the members because they are so good to me.  But i DO NOT want to stay with my comp. I don’t think I could handle another one like this with him even with Christmas coming up and Donnas baptism; I just couldn’t do it.  I have already told president in an email. But I just get this feeling I’m going to stay here in Boston. President told me when I first got sent out here that I was going to stay a "long time".  So I think I might stay and my comp will leave and I will get a new one.  If I stay here one more transfer I will be here in Boston for 6 months. 1/4 of my mission.  But I did that in Evesham. Well hope all is going good this magical season.
