Um yeah, so it is time for transfers, but logically nothing should happen, I just barely got to Nuñez 6 weeks ago, if anyone needed to leave it was Hermana Guerra, but well here I find myself in another part of Argentina!! Again I had to pack all my stuff in one quick night, I didn't say goodbye to anyone because I didn't know anything until last night at 9:30 and I left for my new area this morning! I don't have anything to remind me of Nuñez!! I'm actually really sad, I cried last night, and I couldn't sleep at all, so I'm really tired, it just seems so sad to me because I was with a comp that didn't like me for 3 transfers, and I was finally with someone I had fun with, and that lasted one transfer! My one baptism in Nuñez doesn't count because she will be confirmed this Sunday and I won't be there for it!! The last zone conf our president told us that we should only expect changes in area 2 or 3 times in the mission (for hermanas) so I thought I would be in Nuñez for a good time, but no! I'm actually not that sad to leave Nuñez, just my comp, but don't get me wrong my new comp seems great, she is very obedient, one of President Argyle's favorite missionaries. She is from Uruguay, she is 27 years old, and very nice, she said she always wanted to be my comp because she trained Hna Collinwood (we were in the MTC together) and Hna Collinwood talked about how I was really nice, and I had met Hna Perez (my new comp) a few times before and she said I always seemed like a really good missionary! So here we are together in Liniers, she goes home in June so I will most likely be her last comp, which means I will be here in Liniers for a good long time, Liniers the zone has the most baptisms in the whole mission, my area......... nada! The apartment, is huge, its like a house compared to my other two apts, but... it has a million cockroaches!! I'm trying to get excited about serving here, but it is hard... have any words of encouragement????? Sorry this part is so depressing, but yeah, that is how I feel today! So last week I decided to start a diet, I had gained 5 lbs in Nuñez because my comp always wanted to eat ice cream and stuff like that, when I weighed myself I said no I cant do that anymore, well we are at a members house eating and they gave us ice cream for dessert, I had one helping and the hermana said do you want more? and my comp said oh yeah my comp wants more, we almost died laughing, it was pretty funny because we had made a bet that I wouldn't eat ice cream anymore after that, but I lost because I can't say no to members, its against the rules!! I had other stories to tell, but now I can't remember.
I loved Conference, I hope you all did as well!! Saturday I watched Conf in Spanish, it was quite the experience. Some of the speakers record their talks in Spanish before and so we get to hear them speak, like Elder Scott does that!! Did you know his children are adopted? I've been meaning to write that for a while! But then I found out they broadcast Conf in English in the institute building, so I found an hermana that speaks English and I went and watched it in English on Sunday, it was so much fun!! I loved it, especially the talk from Elder Perry. Everyone should review it and put it to practice!! Well really that is all I can think of, Zone Conf is next week, I think, so hopefully Mom's package has arrived! Pray for me to be able to deal with the cockroaches!! Oh yeah so fall has started here, last week it was soooooo cold, OK actually i think it was like in the 60s but now for me that is really cold, I was all bundled up in a coat and all those things, I loved it, I love the cold weather! But I don't know what happened, it is like 30 degrees outside now (in Celsius - 86°F) and so we are dying of heat! But that brief spell of cold weather reminded me that I don't have any winter clothes and winter is coming here soon!! SO if anyone wants to donate to my winter clothes fund, I'm going to start buying sweaters and gloves and scarfs and all those fun things!!
Welp that is all I have for now I think, thanks for all your love and support, and hopefully I will be able to have a better week!! I need all your prayers now more than ever!!
Love ya,
Hermana Gosnell
