Hey, hey mum cakes
So well this will not be as long of an en email because I’m mailing this to you from the Smyth’s computer, and thus, I don’t want to be on it for hours at a time. The good news is I will be emailing again tomorrow, and will try to send another email your way. It probably will not be that great but it’s better than nothing.
To explain, first, President changed the pday to Wednesday this week due to St. Patrick's Day, nothing I was expecting but he said to email on pday not Monday unless you could not email then. Well my new comp said we will email Wednesday I told him that it would be closed so he said Thursday cuz thats what President said, but all the smart elders emailed on Monday to not worry our mothers.
My new moves call is I’m still in Derry, Groneman has moved to Dublin city center. He likes it there; I still keep in contact with him well because we are so close. My new companion is the district leader and is Elder Jake Robison from Orem, Utah. Cody knows him and Kindy and everyone else; he is 6'6" and everyone comments on his height. It’s really funny. We get along great even if he screwed up the whole email thing; sorry about that I really tried. But life is great here we have gotten our car back it’s the same type of car only new color- silver. It’s really neat.
My birthday has been great because all the members love me; I have gotten 3 cakes and some birthday presents. It actually feels like I had a birthday this time compared to the last one in Tralee. But 21 feels the same as 20 but I guess once I get back home I can now drink. Like I will ever need that.
The investigators have been coming around. Janice is still as great as ever although Bob is an idiot and has walked out on her again. I believe I told you about the first time; this makes two times since I have been here. When he leaves he goes to another house he owns and will not talk to her for weeks at a time. So I will try this time really hard to talk to him and beat some sense into his head. At the same time it’s really good I would like them apart because they are not married but he needs to at least talk to her. They have been going out or living together for 6+ years and have a 5 year old daughter who he is neglecting also.
Some better news, we got one of Janice’s sons that smoked to try and stop; he has been off for one week and is still strong. He says he does not even really want them; his name is Jason. The younger son Chris messed up on day one, and seems a bit down at the moment to re-try; but he is not getting off that easy. Right now I want to help out Janice so much. It would make her so happy if they would all just quit smoking.
Well like I said I’m going to end this and try to send another one real quick tomorrow. I will tell the Smyth’s thanks from you and hopefully get a quick note from you tomorrow. Thanks for everything; I love and miss you all. I have less than one month now it’s going to be a good one. Love you all!
Much love
Brady
