July 10

Dear Mom,

I figured out today that i dont need to send my cards to you. I can just stick my sd card into the computer and upload them. My apartment is a lot cleaner. Last pday we all pitched in and cleaned the whole place. Well except that there is mold in a lot of places. Its weird im doing most of the cooking here in our house. Yea i know that its gonna get hotter. But it should be ok. At the CTM we had somebody talk to us and he said that if we live right the Lord will make it so that the "Alaskans" wont be as hot. I thought that was kind of cool.
Marty has moved back down to the lower 48 with his wife so you will never see him again.
Is Frank still working at the movie theater?
I have gained quite a bit of weight. But i have made it a goal now that the house is clean to get up and excercise everyday. I also need to stop eating as much. That one is going to be hard for me because  they love people who eat a lot of food here. Always we hear "Come mais Elder" Which means eat more food elder. But i will just have to be careful.
 That squirrel sounds awesome :)
I only have a few minutes left so i will just say a little.
The people here in Bahia are completely different from the rest of Brazil. For one thing they are all black here. They were all still slaves 200 years ago so they eat really poor food and they think that it is good. When you are talking to one of them they almost always touch you on the arm or shoulder. They are complete slobs all of their garbage they just throw on the ground. They also just sit around sometimes. All of them believe in God and most of them have no problem listening to us even if they dont beleive us.
Its very different but its really cool at the same time.
Anyway goodbye for now


Love Elder Jensen
