First Email from Nick

Well I am just going to write one ginormas letter to you all. lol. So here it goes. Well to answer your questions, the other day it was 9 celsius here with a wind, so it was cold, the crapy thing was that it was thanksgiving and i hadn't gotten a coat yet so i was cold to say the least, oh well, i pressed on. as far as sickness i got pretty sick in the MTC but i am fine now. my comp has only served in three different areas, but he is awesome, we are trying to convert his family. lol. he was born here, so he has cousins and gmas to convert. but the work is going well, people here are terrible smokers so i get some headaches when we go into houses sometimes. and they all have commitment issues, we are at about three standstills untill they just commit to being baptized. That is great that work is going well. as far as i know this is the best place for the winter, it snows in about december so wel will be good for a little bit. with that package that you are going to send me, it needs to be off soon so that i can get it incase i transfer in 6 weeks, so yeah. oh as far as thanksgiving, it is not near as good as american style!! and we did eath enough, we went to one sunday night, ate a ton, and then on monday we had a dinner and supper appointment! so we ate so much, that it was gross! oh well. the branch here is so small we had about 30 people show this sunday, so that is about average i hear. i had to speak also, that was entertaining! the food hear is pretty normal, we did eat some sea food chowder last night at an investigators house, that i was not a fan of at all. but i ate it. well keep filling me in on all the sports action if you can, no one even cares over here. lol. you can go ahead and get rid of the van, lol, i could care less,lol. my apartment isn't too bad, it needs to be cleaned desperately, lol, so that will be on the agenda today, since it is pday. well i hope that you can answer all the questions with the info i gave you. oh one last thing, tell people about the email, cause to send a leter is a dollar to teh US, so i am only going to hand write you and ry. But the work is going good, my homesickness is wearing off, i have made it a point to think of the people instead of home. i love you all and it is great to hear from you, thanks for all your prayers and support.
