TRANSFERRRRSS

Welp this week has been out of the ordinary just like any week that has transfers in it. First of all Elder Cox my new companion is from St. George. He's been out for 18 months and this morning that's all that we talked about. It feels like I'm never going home. I should give a bit of a back story. For some reason in this mission it's a thing for the older missionaries to always say to the younger missionaries that they're never going home. It really does feel that way when you're as new into the mission as I am. Even though at the end of this transfer I'll be 1/4 of the way done with my mission.

So for the story of transfers. The first thing that happened was I finally got into the tie trading business. I finally acquired enough ties from grabbing them from refuse piles that people were willing to trade with me. So I got some pretty decent ties at an even better price. It was a lot of fun and I've never seen so many ties in one place. 

Also in Regina during transfers I got to drive quite a bit. It was a lot of fun and it reminded me of the days driving everyone to and from school. I only went up onto the curb twice. Nobody died. 

Also during the day that I was stuck in Regina waiting for Elder Cox I got to billet with Elder Randall and Elwood. For those of you familiar with Smithfield you should know some Elwoods. It was a lot of fun to be able to talk about home and stuff with him. Also he was trained in Yorkton just like me so that was even better and a bit interesting seeing as we're from the same place. Also Elder Randall is a blast so I was glad to be with him. 

Also for awkward moment of the week. Elder Cox and I were in Melville and we were driving around with a super less active because he was showing us where is adopted brother now lives. When we got to the house the guy who answered the door wasn't who we were looking for but he was quite the beauty. He looked like he had just woke up but he was wearing a unicorn onesy. I just went with the flow and afterwards our friend told us that the Unicorn onesy was one of those beauty buys from value village. It was great :)

Love you all and have a great week
