The world just goes round and round, and just won't stop

Well the world wont stop or slow down or really anything like that.  It is hard for me to imagine that another Transfer has come and gone.  We got our call this morning and Elder Garner and myself are staying and Elder Swainston is going to open a new area and train a new missionary. And so dies the mighty triangle :'( It has been fun while it lasted that is for sure.
This Last Week was SUPER FUN! We taught 25 Lessons for the Second time this month and that is a HUGE accomplishment for our area and for us as missionaries. Ten of them were Member Present Lessons!
D**na is STRUGGLING  with quitting smoking.   Everyone in her house wants to keep smoking except her and that is a bad environment for quitting.  In fact it will be a miracle if she can do it... Good thing God is on our side!!
Ma**ew is slowly falling off the deep end and doesn't want to quit or get married really bad. So he is Kinda in a pickle.
J**sie F is being evicted from his apartment tomorrow in court and there is nothing we can do about it. But on the plus side with him we had 3 POWER HOUSE lessons with him one was for 2 hours and we just let him talk to us and get things off his chest, he has been through a TON in his life. He is PROGRESSING though! Now he just needs a home.
We found a new investigator or really he landed in our laps! He is a Member Referral from a guy who JUST moved into our ward a couple of weeks ago, they were best friends in college in Utah when they were studying Computer Programming at the same school. The Members name is Bret Watson and his friend is J*ke F. We taught him two times in the week and then he came to CHURCH! it was pretty cool to see!
A few of our other investigators we found out are in Jail for this and that or what ever.  It is kinda sad and funny actually...
No luck on a new Apt. yet we are still searching and looking for the right one for us.
I Love Davenport.  The people that we talk to, are mostly open to talking (not really but it is more than other areas I have been in) and the people here are really really good at feeding us TONS OF FOOD. I am getting chunky and is kinda detrimental to my six month program for getting in shape for home ;)
 Well i must be off,

PS we think the Bed Bug war is finished!!!
