And miles to go before I sleep

"The Lord has prepared and raised up a Faithful people who choose to do hard things well." - Henry B. Eyring WHATTA WEEK. Up at 6:30. Pray. Exercise (insanity is kicking my butt). Eat. Put a dress on. Plan. Study. Video call ×4. Eat. Play some piano to chill my mind. Study. Video call some more. Go outside. More video calls. Drop Books of Mormon off at people's doors. Eat dinner on the sidewalk outside the church. Video call ×6. Drive home listening to tab choir turned way up windows down. Write in my journal. Pray my heart out. Sleep. REPEAT! This is our life. It is more fast paced than ever, yet I spend most of my time sitting on one of those metal church chairs. I'm grateful that President Eyring pointed out that the Lord has prepared us to CHOOSE to do hard things well. Because this new lifestyle of missionary work is dang hard for me. But I refuse to do anything less than choose to do it well. General Conference was the best, we all knew it would be. I would love to hear any and all of your insights and takeaways! The Restoration of Christ's gospel is Real and we all ought to devote our lives to living and sharing it because that's what we were saved and prepared to do! It's only going to get more exciting from here! I thank thee Oh God for a Prophet! The work goes on and we've got referrals coming in on the daily! "I've got promises to keep and MILES TO GO BEFORE I SLEEP." I love Elder Holland with my whole soul and nobody could have said it better. - Sister Hardy

Hey Fam!! Holy cow I've been here a solid half an hour maybe and I already LOVE it. It's so fun. My companion is sister Stoddard from Minneapolis and she is so funny and nice! She says she doesn't sport much and just barely said "ok so don't take candy from strangers but like... burritos are fine." She says she has a friend sending her a burrito in the mail. She's going to be awesome. Dane one of my teachers is from Africa and he's the most hilarious guy I have ever met in my life no joke. He says he plays ALOT of 2k and I was the only one who understood what he was talking about when he was talking and he thought that was awesome so thank you for that! Anyways they really throw you right into things here I threw my bags on my bottom bunk that I claimed and am headed straight to class! I LOVE YOU GUYS Also my P-day is Tuesday! I miss you but am so happy and feeling so welcomed and love it here so much. Sister Hardy
