Not a whole lot happened this week. Drove
the van to Fargo, got back, picked up E. Kane, came home. He's sweet!
He reminds me of my cousin, Eli, so it's gonna be AWESOME! I think
this transfers going to be pretty sweet. We are both ZL's together.
Most
exciting thing that happened this week! We saw L again! It's been
forever! We just stopped in and talked with her for a while. It was
great.
As for the title of this email, there is
a funny story to go along with it! Bishop Davies of the Presiding
Bishopric came to give just a small devotional to the missionaries in
Bismarck and Minot, and when we all got together there was a missionary
that had some nasty rash on his hands and face. But, I didn't see the
rash till after I had hugged him at the beginning of the meeting and I
saw him outside afterwards and was told to wash my hands like crazy. (I
thought it was just really bad acne...) So, While he was at this
devotional there was a doctor who diegnosed his rash as "hand, foot and
mouth disease". So, we all washed our hands and called it good. Then,
not too long after that happened, we got a call from someone (they are
going to remain unidentified for obvious reasons) telling us about this
disease and how it is super contagious and that we needed to disinfect
everything and tell everyone in the zone to do the same cause if they
don't they are going to get this disease and be isolated for 7-10 days
when the symptoms stop. So, we call everyone in the zone and warn them
about it, and most of us were pretty upset cause we had direct contact
with him and were "contaminated". Then, 2 days later, we found out
otherwise. For those of you who don't know, it is a disease that is
pretty much only found in infants and is very hard to get as an adult.
Like Chicken Pocks, but not as bad. So, it is now nick named "foot in
mouth disease" cause it was made a much bigger deal than it needed to be
and we were all worried we were gonna be locked in our apartment for a
week. But don't you worry, we are disease free!
Well folks, that about concludes this weeks session. Love ya!
