Reflections

24-10-2015
Another normal week here in the office. We found out early in the week that instead of moving next Monday, the office will only be moved around the beginning of November (though hopefully not during transfer week). This gives us all some more time to let people know that the address for all our mail will be different shortly. Either way though, things will be hectic during November as we make sure everything is put back together and such and nothing gets lost or broken. But such is the office life.

We had interviews this week, with President and Sister Bunnell, on Thursday (as usual during district meeting). It was good. I had a good conversation with both of them and they probably learnt some new stuff about me. They also expressed their appreciation for the work I do (mainly in helping with the computer stuff), even though it does not seem like much to me, since I have been working with computers since before I could read. But I do understand that it means a lot to them.


The rest of the week, we worked in the office and in the evenings went to a dinner appointment (since we had one each evening; it was pretty nice) and thereafter knocked on doors, talked to people and visited other people. Nothing too crazy happened, but we did run into some familiar faces, one of which was a man we once taught, that I had not seen in about a year, if not longer. We told him we'd come back later in the week. As we were driving home that night, we also saw a member that moved to Amsterdam from Leiden some time ago (and interestingly he also went on joint teach with us to the guy we found earlier in the day). 


On Friday, a member from Turnhout drove up here to see one of my companions (who used to serve there) and take us to dinner. We ate at an all you can eat sushi restaurant. It was soooo good. The member also brought a bunch of chocolate. Besides all that, he was also a really cool guy.
