Training with my Trainer

Hey everyone!
  Glad to hear things are going well with you all. Things are going pretty good here. This week has been fairly ordinary, but we've had a few interesting happenings. 
  Probably the most notable thing this week has been exchanges with our Zone Leaders earlier in the week. Elder Miller went to Södertälje with Elder Moe, and I stayed here in Eskilstuna and worked with Elder Tomlinson (my "dad"!). They came in the morning for district meeting, and it was really pretty cool being able to meet up and talk with them for a while and then catch up with him over the course of the day. He's had some contact with some of the people we worked with up in Luleå, so it was interesting being able to hear how they're doing and what's going on up there, too. It was fun.
  While on splits with Tomlinson, we went to visit L again, and ended up having another really good lesson with her. We just watched the Restoration and ended up discussing it, the Book of Mormon, and some other miscellaneous questions she had. She really seemed to love it, though, and she even said that she thinks she found her church. She also came to our meeting on Sunday and seemed to really enjoy it. She seems to really enjoy the gospel, and we're looking forward to being able to continue to meet with her. 
  In other (quite unrelated) news, we've been meeting weekly with a branch member, Anna, and helping her with various renovations and whatnot around her house. This week, she had two projects in mind (for the two companionships): one was sanding off some excess putty stuff (I don't remember what it's called, the stuff painters use to even out surfaces) in the bathroom, and the other was tearing down a wall. Needless to say, Elder Miller and I had a good time tearing a wall down. I'll attach some before and after pictures.
  Other than that, things have been going pretty well here. Hope you all have a great week!
