This week has been fairly good. It hasn't been too eventful, but there's been a few interesting happenstances and whatnot.
This week we were able to help one of our branch members, "D", move from Älvesta to a new home in Växjö. There was only a few seats in the van we were taking, so we ended up taking the train to Älvesta, took a few minutes finding his house, and then helped him move, for about 10 or 15 minutes. It turns out that he really didn't have a lot of stuff, and we had 4 people helping him move. So that went fairly well, though we ended up taking a lot more time traveling than helping. But I still think that he appreciated the help, so it was still good that we could come and lend a hand.
In other news, I got your post card this week! It was actually kind of funny, because it came in the morning while we were still at the apartment, and Elder Ricker, who is from Portland, went to see what had arrived when we heard the mail slot open and close. He saw that the card was from Portland and apparently thought it was from his family, but, much to his dismay found that it was addressed to me instead. It was funny.
What else... This week I also decided to try to have a jar of pickled herring for dinner (which I had before and kind of liked), and they sell it at the grocery stores, so I picked one up and cooked some potatoes to have with it. That actually turned out to be a pretty terrible idea. It makes an okay side dish, but just eating herring with potatoes was kind of gross. So don't try that.
Either way, things are going fairly well here. Love all of you guys! Hope everything goes well with the baby!
Love you!
Eli
