We can do anything we want to do if we stick to it long enough.

Time seems to be ticking away! Today was the usual! Greg heard there was a devotional in the Area offices so he went to that at 7:30 this morning! At 10:00 am we went to visit President Annaya and his wife. He is president of the Mexico City East Mission. We (Greg) had a nice spanish visit with him about the health of his missionaries! The temple clinic is in the East mission so the missionaries have it pretty easy - medically! In the afternoon we started out to walk about a mile down the street to the Telmex store to change our address since we are moving this Saturday!!! YEAH I get a window! Anyway we only got part way and Greg got a call from an Elder waiting at the hospital for an X-ray order. We had to walk back, get the car and spend 45 min driving in traffic to the hospital to give the Elder an order! Why can't those people use a phone?????? It took us another 45 min to drive back after a 3 min visit with the Elder! Thats what we do here people!!!!
I fixed a yummy hawaiian pork bowl for dinner. We had FHE with the gang! It was sad because it was farewell to the Olsons and Ellises. We took a big pic with all of us! I will post it when I get it!
Hasta luego!
DRIVING TIP: When the light turns green, step on the gas and go as fast as you can all the way up to 20 feet, then slam on your breaks! That tells everybody you are serious about getting where you need to go!!!
Here are some more pics from Thursday!

BooWhoo! Today is a sad day! We got up, got the van from the church and loaded up the Olsons with their 8 suitcases plus carryons and drove them to the airport! I can't believe they are leaving us! I feel like my parents left me! Ha! They have taken such good care of us - showing us all around, taking us places, feeling full of information about Mexico! I can't believe they have been on 3 missions here! They came on an 18 month mission, then went home for 3 months then back for another 18 months. Then they went back home for another 18 months, then back down here for another 18 months - almost 5 years!! They knew everything about where to go and what to do around here! We will be going back to being lost in space here! They lived next door to us and it is very quiet tonight over there! Sad😂 We got home, Greg did a little mission stuff and then we finally got our walk in by walking down to Telmex like we were suppose to yesterday. Hopefully they will be able to change our WiFi to our new place before too long!!! We spent a quiet night in our place trying to avoid the State of the Union speech!!
Nos Vemos!
