5.4.14

This is a recap of a conversation that Cameron & I had while he was on the computer emailing me… and I happened to be checking email at the same time (which meant we could just chat back and forth)

Cameron: Yeah, I totally forgot about mother’s day and that we will be skyping. So we will have access to a computer with skype at 5 our time. I will be on from 5 to 6ish and my companion will get on at 7. Does that work out for you guys?

Me: Sounds great… and yes, Abbie will generate a list.  What have you been up to today?

Cameron: We actually did a good service project and took down three trees. Here’s a picture. I look like a lumberjack!

Me: How are you?  Everything ok?

Cameron: Yeah everything’s going fine. We don't have much to do on P-Days. We played soccer and ate some empanadas. I'm with Elder Devashrayee (my companion from the MTC) emailing right now. But nowadays, it doesn’t take me long to email.  I just email you guys, Grandpa, Paige and Pte … so writing doesn't take long at all. I don't have anything to talk about ever so it’s usually just pictures and cool stuff every now and then.

I really don't think I'll need to use extra money...I don't know why everyone else just runs out of money all of the time but I'm really good at not buying food and useless items, so you don't have to worry about the money thing. You guys know all about that stuff right?

Me: All about what stuff?  Money? No… we don’t. 

Cameron: Like how much money is in there, if I ever use the card, stuff like that... I remember using it in Argentina once and it worked. Did you guys get that information on the bank statement?

Me: Yep!  We see your activity, and I think Dad gets a kick out of following your mission through following your expenses J.  You have a card & there’s money in the account.  You should never have to go without. 

Cameron: I don't want or need anything really...I still haven't made the cookies yet and the candy isn't all that cool. I don't care for food. If you could send me more socks...playing socks, that would be nice. I only wear three pairs of pants...the ones Conner gave me (my favorite), ones that E' Xavier gave me, and my suit pants. But yeah, sport socks...OH a new watch...my 10 dollar watch from Walmart that I loved and has last me all of this time broke the other day. I would go and buy one but I’m lazy and don't want to search... more garments would also be nice...but again, these aren't things I NEED, just things I would love getting.

Me: we can order garments at the Distribution Center and have them shipped to your mission office… that’s easy. 

Cameron: I'm getting fat in the gut, but all of my pants fit me still...and I think they expand if they need to. Don't send pants though. I have five pair that I haven’t even touched.  Well, Elder Devashrayee is finished emailing, so it’s time to go.

Me: fabulous… it was SO good chatting with you.  I love you!!

Cameron: love you too!
