Missonaries Cuss

That will be the name of my future book and the sequel will be called Missionaries Cuss, Too. Actually I haven't had too much of a problem with that lately but I've been thinking about that concept for months. I'm not perfect. Sorry to let some of you down... Dad. Just kidding. But seriously, I really do think we tend to put expectations and sometimes unrealistic ones on missionaries or persons of the cloth. I feel so clever using that one... wait is that only for catholics? Any ways, you know what I mean. I resently had a situation come up that affirmed that for me. Other "chirstians" had problems with me, and the funny thing was they were just as responsible for the lack of communication as I was. But I am the missionary so I'm naturally the one at fault. And also one of the wonderful cultural differences here is blame shifting, they're great at it. They didn't knock over the cup, it fell on it's own... se cayo. (I'm sighting Mike for that one, so he doesn't get mad that I stole his words, not that I've ever seen Mike mad). RRRRRRRIGHT.
This all brought me to the conclution of "how much is too much and/or when is enough enough?" and I thought to my self "when I have to ask that quesiton, that's when it's enough!" (Sorry this maybe be a little vague if you aren't getting my prayer emails.) But then agian life is so complicated. No I'M so complicated and a big fat chicken.
Speaking of animals, I'm moving soon! Moving in with two really awesome girls and two very stupid cats. I know they are stupid because they are cats. I met one the other day, I hate it already. Oh and have you seen Meet the Parents? Well like in the movie one of the cats is potty trained to pee in the toilet downstairs but the other goes in the sink! How freaking gross. They must think it's cute or something, I'm never using that bathroom.
VBS went well last week and Pan de Vida. I really love coordinating. I'm kinda good at it too. I think having years of expirience bossing my siblings around must have helped.
Just did lice treatments today (see 2 blogs ago), but I'm pretty sure I was just taking off huge chucks of my scalp instead. I didn't see any piojos so maybe I just had bad dandruff?! How annoying.
