The Bee Crusades of 2020
Alright, so I’m in Woodward now. And it’s out in the middle of nowhere, so that’s different from all the cities I’ve served in, but it’s cool. We spent Tuesday driving for forever, so that was fun, but from Wednesday on, we’ve been here in the corner of the state.
Alright, so something that is out here are BEES. And for some reason, they are always where we are when we’re talking to someone outside. Like, no exceptions. Talking to our friend who’s fixing his taillight in the middle of the day, bees. Visiting a member outside, bees. Just standing there looking like an idiot, bees. And bees just cruise on up to you, and try to land on you, for some unknown reason. Like, you’re moving your arms while you’re talking and these bees are just like, “Yeah bro, I’m just gonna try to land on that.” Like BRO, don’t you have honey to go make?? I don’t know what they’re trying to do, and I’m not about to fight bees, cuz those little guys are dying, so I just have to try to communicate with them via dance, because that’s how bees communicate (Thanks Phineas and Ferb).
Then I decided one night that rather than have another ham and cheese sandwich for dinner, I would break out some cooking skills, and have some real food. And being the cuisine machine that I am, I pulled out some beef from the freezer and all the spices in our cabinets, and just went to town. I smelled the spices and sprinkled them in according to my gut feeling. And not gonna lie, some of the best beef I’ve had in my life. There was actually nothing else besides seasoned beef, but it was still very nice.
And I guess to wrap this up, so far every single day, when 4:20 rolls around, we look at the time and we’re both like, “Ayyyyy it’s 4:20!” But like, we just look at the time for any reason and it just happens to be right at that lovely time. Every single day since Tuesday. Truly amazing.
But yeah, that was our week, we’re just going hard on that missionary work, bringing eternal joy to people’s souls, pretty cool stuff. And somehow it’s the 18th again this week soooooo….
THE RAFFLE:
SHOUTOUTS:
- MakanaLani – So she used to serve in Oklahoma, but she finished her 18 months and dipped outta here. She’s actually super cool though, and was a killer missionary. She’s Apache and has a super cool name too. What a legend.
Also with the shoutouts, we got quite a few responses from last time, and there’s no other missionaries out here, so my P-days are gonna consist of me writing emails and shopping, yahoo!
Over and Out
