Howzit-Elder Flexy!


Elder Flexy 3:4 -email-
I found a way to get a little more info from our Elder. I number my questions and he answers them without having to type as much. The questions in red are mine with the answer after. 
Mama!!
My week was great! so about the memory card don't worry i didn't send it yet. I said i would but then i heard some stories about them being stolen so i'm gonna find a way to send them home through E-mail instead cause i'm not gonna lose those memories.
1.we email at an email cafe in central durban.
2.ya it does cost its five rand [a rand is about .15 US] an hour so its super cheap.
3.there isn't a time limit but we are only supposed to do it for half an hour.
4.yes elder martin emails as well.
5-Maybe you aren't writing much because you don't want to make him wait?
5.no we just don't have that much time to email so its hard to get it done.
6.yes me being not a great typer is part of the problem.
7-Do you email your President?
7.no i don't email him but we fax him a letter once a week usually.
8.we are still teaching like crazy and finding like crazy too!
9-Would you like us to write letters?
9.yes i would like real letters they are very nice, also while we are on the subject if you send me a christmas package (you don't have too) just fill a box with letters from anybody you can think of and send it and also if you can find a starwars sound track (yes that is ok) for p day that would be sweet! 
10.so i didn't tell anyone about your blog that is me i check it once in a while just to see whats happening.
11-Have you met anyone who you feel a special bond to? Like you have known them before or like you just click with this person?
11.well there is this investigator named ___ and he seems to have a soft spot for me he has this trust in me and i have vowed to baptize him.
so there is a reason why i haven't gotten into to spacfic things in my emails is really because this is a very scetchy place lots of dodgey things happen. and i didn't want you to worry because i know nothing is gonna happen but it is a dangerous place. about four months ago an elder was kidnapped and held for ransom but the lord prepared a way for him to escape. so don't worry the lord protects his special ops. force without fail so don't worry. but i have seen lots of cool things like the indian ocean. we saw a beached whale. its super humid and hot here its pretty brutal but i'm starting to like it. anyway thats all for now love you!!!

Baba!
things are going great here!! thats great that you get to build these shelves and stuff its good for you. ya well your bucket of responsibilities has always been full so thats no change!!:) i guess people just need your services. ya i'm glad Keifer got his eagle. my companion told me that scouts here is bad news. he said one time his troop they stripped one of the kids naked tied him to a chair and left him on this old Gogo's [a gogo is a grandma in Zulu] porch!!!! i thought that was pretty funny. yes we do quite a bit of service in the morning because no one is home to teach. this last saturday we scrubbed and painted this indian families roof it was fun we will do it for a long time because its super big. anyway the work is going great. Love you.
