Hurricane, Earthquakes, and Cockroaches o my!

I had changes! Now I`m in Zona Masaya in Nindiri! All my mission it's been hot! I've been in the hottest areas in my mission and now I`m here and it feels so cold, people are like, "it`s so hot out today" and I`m freezing! My new companion is Hermana Ramos from Honduras! She`s so cute and shy but man is she blunt and real with people. I love it! I`m also living with two other sisters, Hermana Hussey (She came with me to Nicaragua) and Hermana Calderon (the daughter of Hermana Hussey who is in training, she`s from El Salvador). Our house is probably the nicest one I've had in all my mission but it is full of cockroaches! These little cockroaches, there are hundreds of them!

This past week on Monday we woke up and had a cleaning fest and while we had a cleaning fest I decided to make smoothies, a member let us borrow her smoothie maker. So I put in the bananas and then the yogurt and milk, then I went to put in the oatmeal and I start to pour it in and I see a few cockroaches! I tried to get all of them out. I thought I had gotten them all out so I made the shake and we started to drink them when Hermana Ramos pulls half a cockroach out of her shake! She looks at it and says that bugs have more protein than chicken. It was hilarious! So we drank our cockroach filled smoothies and then as a Zone we went to a lagoon that is near by! Also, we live right next to a volcano! I've lived next to volcanoes all my mission and this one is so cool because it`s active! At night I was looking at the sky and this one part was dark red and it`s because the lava is shining out of the volcano onto the clouds reflecting and every day smoke leaves from it! 

Tuesday I went on divisions with Hermana Hussey to Masaya and I went to the hospital in Managua with another Hermana because she has a lot of pain in her sinuses and had an appointment. While her comp and Hermana Hussey worked in her area. Then we came back and I worked with Hermana Bullock and her daughter Hermana Lopez. It was pretty fun!

Then Thursday we got a warning about a hurricane that was about to hit Nicaragua and we had a earthquake the same day! Thank goodness that the Hurricane didn't hit this part of our area but in other areas it rained a ton! It only rained a little bit here.

I have to go love you all and Happy Thanksgiving!

Cockroaches and more. This is only a few of the sticky pads that we have in the house.



It`s not temple square but it reminded me about it. Here is a little park that is near us.
