Monday, April 13, 2026: The one with the Cowboys

 Monday

P-Day!!!
Very good day! We got all the laundry and cleaning done first thing in the morning! We went grocery shopping and got all the goods. For our district activity we played pickle ball. I suck at pickle ball. like real bad. but it was a good day!

Tuesday
Weekly Planning!
We volunteered at the thrift store again! so fun we folded a whole bunch of kid clothes. The infant onesies are so cute! Sister Waite is our Zone tech rep, so she has got a bunch of zoom meetings, which means that I get to have extra studies some days! That has been cool. comp council or as we like to refer to it, compa chonga!!! we went and got boba! so yummy!

Wednesday
Waffle wednesday!!! I get to partake now and that is super exciting! We had Larry and Ashlynn show up for Institute, which means we get to stay for the class! After the class we had a great lesson with them! They had so many questions about all of th eLaws and Commandments that God has given us. They are not so sure about them but said they would come to church!

Thursday
Day 1 of a whole lot of walking. We don't have very many people talking to us let alone lessons so we go findding! This is so difficult. Talking to strangers is so hard. but we found a couple people! We had lunch with CC again! She is such a good cook! Tony is a member from Santa Rosa but works here in SLO, he reached out and said we should stop by his work and get free sandwiches! He works at Jersey Mike's and let me tell you the best sandwich ever! Their gluten free bread is 10/10! 

Friday
We had our mission Friday Zoom, good stuff. I like that we all meet together, even if it is only over zoom. we had a lot of finding time this day too, so ya walk day part 2. This was honestly a super hard day. super discouraging. me and Sister Waite are both pretty quiet, talking to people is rough. We had been walking for maybe an hour and we had found no one. Trying to talk to people was killing me. I kept getting in my head. I would see someone and think I should talk to them and then I wouldn't, I couldn't, I would just watch them walk past me. I felt like a failure. I couldn't do this simple thing, I felt I was letting Sister Waite down and God. We walked in silence for a while as I was beating myself up inside. I suddenly turned to her determined to break our silence and asked her to tell me what she was thinking. Let's just say she wasn't super thrilled to so I said I would go first, and I told her everything. I spilled out all my insecurities. I told her everything I was thinking. I turned to her and said okay Sister Waite your turn. and guess what, she was thinking the exact same things. honestly never felt more unified with her. I wasn't struggling alone i had her in the exact same boat as me. and then a miracle was given to us. as we kept walking i recalled a meeting i was in where someone had said that when contacting in public and you see some you feel you should talk to and you are far too nervous ask your companion to. ad folks that is what we did. we made game of it, i would see some and i would tell her “that one”, and she would talk to them, then it was her turn to find someone for me, we had three cop outs ya know just for safety and nerve and such. we found 3 people in 20 minutes! God is good. We are figuring it out. There is a reason God has placed us together and we are going to figure this whole thing out. 

Saturday
part 3 of the long walk
A whole ton of lessons and none of them went through so big bummer. so we walked. Cal Polly campus has nothing on me. The rodeo is in town, well in the football field I should say. and yes you would be correct they literally turn the football field into a radio stadium! large tarps and trucks full of dirt in 1 day they turned it into a stadium! There were so many people it was crazy. The rodeo was going from Thursday till Saturday. I can't wait to go to one when I'm home! Seeing everyone walking around all dressed up was so fun! Makes me wonder how many college kids bought a cowboy hat just for this, lol. I need to get me a pair, I want to look cool too!

Sunday 
love love love sundays and not just cuz its so close to monday, lol. Fast Sundays are tough! Oh man, it's cool to think that when I am fasting it's a sacrifice on top of a sacrifice. Being in the field and hungry is hard work, but the reward at the end is stunning. lots of meetings today, a ton so we didn't have hardly any time to find. We had a mission zoom and it was so good we talked about prayer. It's honestly so cool how we can talk to our heavenly father, and on top of that we can communicate absolutely whenever we need and want!

Monday, April 6, 2026: The One Where She Survives the Reaping

 Hi, hello. Gosh what a week!


moday
So fun! We did some shopping and then we headed over to District Activity. We played rage cage. If you have never heard of it, that's okay with me either. It involves drinking odd and sometimes horrid mixes of random drinks and sometimes spices and training to bounce a ping pong ball into cups. It was fun and very messy. I'm not sure if I like it or not. but it was fun to be with everyone.

tuesday
weekly planning! always good fun. We got to do our first round of service! We volunteered at a thrift store that one of our members' mothers volunteers at. It was honestly pretty fun! we had a pass off with the elders, she didn't show up but we got to talk to some other people that were around and that was fun. We also had a lesson with Izzy! she wanted to meet at Dutch Bros, it was cold and rainy so I got a cinnamon hot cocoa! It was a good, fun day!

wednesday
at the institute they always have waffles on wednesday! I sadly have to pass but I always leave with a spoon full of peanut butter! but no longer! They are truly the sweetest, they bought gluten free waffle mix! So that was a fun surprise! We had lunch with Kiana at In-n-Out! Very yummy and very messy. We found so many people today it was awesome! We had dinner at the institute and an amazing lesson with Devon! It was a really solid day!

thursday
Transfers!!! I survived the reaping, God has granted me another transfer in SLO! Sister cox did not, she informed to pack and be at the mission office at 2. It was sad to see her go. I got to spend the day in Santa Maria with a Spanish companionship! it was pretty fun, i felt a little useless because i dont speak spanish but as they talked to people it was cool to feel the spirit come into their conversations. They are on bikes so that was a trial. I was also not informed previously so I was in a skirt, lol. Fortunately the ride to their apartment was short and a previous Hermana had left behind some pants that fit pretty good, a little on the short side but hey pants are pants. The end of the day arrived and I got to meet Sister Waite! she is so cool we are going to have a blast this transfer. She is from Meridian Idaho! But no, she doesn't know any Petersons, lol.

friday
I got bashed on, the worst one yet. He was just awful. Freaking Johnathan, he needed to swallow his spit, it was gross. He also was wearing dark sunglasses so I was looking into dark soulless eyes. The sun was in my face so I got to scowl at him while also smiling, lol. He kept trying to trap us in questions, I was not about to let him put words in my mouth. Ugh. I just kept thinking in my head what would Jesus do. And it sucked. Like he told us we were going to hell and as good as our intentions where we were dragging innocents with us. He told us if we denied our faith our families would hate us but God would embrace us. So ya absolutely stunning. Kinda sucked to be yelled at. 

saturday
General Conference! Oh man, so good! We had our friend Larry come to the evening session! Larry is so cool, we don't know him super well yet but from what we do know, he is so cool, what a guy. Bishop Ririe and his wonderful wife fed us breakfast and lunch! Bishop Ririe is one of a kind. He is the sweetest most genuine man I have ever met. He radiates love. He really has saved my life. God knew I was going to need this man. He continues to lift me up and make me feel like what I do is enough and also valuable. He is truly an amazing human being.

sunday
General conference part 2! The Ririe again provided breakfast and lunch! We had our friend Devon join us!!! We had Dinner with the Holmes family! And Andrew and Maren were there! It was so fun and special to get to spend dinner with family! We ended the night with a zoom with the mission. We got to hear the testimonies of the new missionary! It was pretty cool to remember that that had been me 7 weeks ago. 

I know I am right where God needs me, the way is hard and very difficult but will Him all things will prove possible in the end. I love my Lord and Savior Jesus the Christ. And tho we may doubt He does truly love us all. With Jesus on our side we can all be concoroues.
