9/12/17 ~ Bad Driving, Flat Tires, Thin Patience ~

1. Service of the Week..... KIlling Chickens

Been quite the week down here in Texas. The past couple days on of the tires on our truck has been getting low so we have to fill it up like everyday..... already off to a bad start huh?! HA well we thought the tire was just a piece of garbage so we didn't think anything about it!! Sunday night we went to Elder and Sister Reese's house (senior camps in Fort Stockton) to have dinner and then we were gonna hit the road and drive an hour down to Alpine because we went to Big Bend yesterday since all the libraries were closed for 9/11 and we are now on exchanges with the Elders here!! So were are cruising down the road going bout 80 and this massive deer jumps across the road in front of us....... In every mission car there is a tracker that tells on you if you are speeding, not buckled up, driving crazy, and from what i've heard if you get to many "aggressive driving" instances then you can lose driving privileges...... and to cut to the chase, im not off to a great start cause of that Deer!! Totally missed it though;) 

When we got to Alpine the next morning we come out of the apartment and the tire is completely flat...... so we had to change a tire at 6 AM because we were taking out car to Big Bend... about 2 hours away...... haha oh boy was that a challenge!! 

Every exchange that i have gone on so far has been way good and everything is going great..... or everything goes wrong... haha and so far this exchange is a bad one!! Hoping today is a little better but we will see ha!!

Don't have much time to email today but hope y'all are great back home. 

love you bye
