So quickly I am going to put in the stuffs that I might need just so I don´t forget after. So I don´t know if you can, but I need some thermals. I have one pair of thermal garments, but the tops are really tiny. The bottoms are perfect. They are size 32. But I am thinking that I just want the bottoms of the garments in thermals if you do that. Because they aren´t going to make the sleeves long enough for any of them. But maybe Ben if you could get some thermals that would be great, for the top maybe a lighter color so I could wear it under a white shirt if I had to. But the bottoms it doesn´t matter. And then also I was thinking my down booties would be great to have as well, because that is what get´s coldest when I am in the apartment are my feet. Or some wool socks. I have the short ones you sent with me, but I was thinking long ones would be better if I don´t have thermals. Also for clothes that you send through the mail you aren´t supposed to send new clothes or they will charge you a certain percentage of them. So just don´t send stuff with the tags attatched or something like that, just so they don´t think they are new. I don´t know if any of this is possible through the mail, if not I can just try to find stuff down here. But it just isn´t of the same quality and it is a ton more expensive. If it isn´t possible though don´t worry and I will just go buy it somewhere here. Just cheaper and better from home.
Alright now to start the letter. How is everybody doing? I hope that you all had a great week and did something fun. So this week Elder Allen one of my real good buds, the one that was here with the kidney stones and was in my office for almost that whole transfer, went home this week. Also I sent a letter home with him, so he better come visit like he said he would. haha. He has the home phone and mom´s cell so he should call sometime soon, but I am not sure when it will be, just so you know. But ya it was a little sad to see him go, but he is on to the next step in life right. So that was one of the big things of this week. Also that meant that it was transfer week. So I now have a new companion. I am still in the offices and I will not be training someone to take over my job this transfer, so I will be here for atleast one more after this one to train.
But now I am with Elder Howard who is in the same group as me. So we came together from the MTC, but he was in a different district, so we didn´t know each other until we got here. But it has been good so far. The first night we went out together we were just talking to tons of people and it was really fun. We were searching for this member that was supposed to be at the direction in the directory. And the house was at that direction but the street signs lied to us, so we couldn´t find it forever, and then we asked some people and figured out that we had already passed it, it was just that the street signs weren´t right. But we just worked and it was a great night. It has been great to have a little change and a new face. Not that I didn´t like my last companion because I did and I have liked all that I have had so far, it is just a great thing for change. Because then you can see from another´s view point and figure out what the poeple need. So that has been great. We stayed in the area I was in before so still in Villa del Parque. So that will be good because I get to stay in my area and work with the people that are close to being baptized. It has just been great to change and be able to work hard.So ya I don´t want to repeat all o the stories that I wrote in my letter home to you guys because that would be no fun to get tit twice. So I am going to leave this one a little shorter and hope that you get the other letter pretty quick here.
Thank you all so much for all of the help that you have given. You will never know how much you have helped me, So I just want to thank you for that and have a great week for me. Love you all.
Love,
Elder Wheeler
P.S. a quick explanation of the pics attatched. So this past sunday we went to Presidents house for dinner. Because they weren´t home for my birthday so we did a joint thing of my birthday and the two Elders that were leaving the office staff. So Elder Dugger and I were in charge of making pizzas. Because he worked in a pizza place before and so we had to make all of the pizzas. So we had to go early for it and when we got there the visiting 70 that was here for stake conference in the stake we are in was still there. Because he and his wife are really good friends with President and Hermana Ávila. So we got to take a pic with him and his wife and little baby. And then after dinner we had cake and I got to get sung to and blow out the candles.
