Due to the bipolar weather that is going down with Madrid my body decided to have a meltdown and shutdown for a whole week. So unfortunately I had to take a few "sick days" on the Lords Vineyard.
One thing I love though about being sick here in Spain is that everyone here feels they have the right, no need, to tell you how to cure yourself. On sunday here was the recommendations I was given..
"Squirt two lemons in your nose and your cured!"
"Boil some milk then pour two spoonfuls of honey in and your all good!"
"Get some lemon juice, heat it up then put some honey!"
"Wear a scarf and that bug will go away!"
Literally kills me. I love that whenever I have been ill on the mission they feel the need to give me all this voodoo home remedies to cure me. Love it. I will say though that my spanish rasp has never been more spot on this week! Moment of silence to the Madrid smoker voice accent. Love it.
This week we were able to go to the temple. Even though I was sick there was NO way I was going to miss the chance to go. I love being in the temple it just recharges you. Gives you a big old boost to be better! After the temple we had a district meeting, and I apparently was delirious (or so my comp says.... I don't really remember it that well). Apparently I had them dying laughing though. So that´s good right.
Overall a really good week. I love my companion and I´m grateful for the chance to serve here with her. Have a great week!
Con Amor,
Hermana Shurtz
P.S. The rain in spain DOES fall mainly on the plains.
