12/16/19 - Sister Bliss' embarrassing moments of the week 😂

First of all I'm dying because I've been making jokes all day about some embarrassing things I did yesterday and then I looked and saw that the last two weeks I made some very big mistakes in my emails, so here's of list of mistakes I've made recently in case any of you ever feel bad about about yourselves and need to laugh at someone else!

1. Two weeks ago I shared in my pictures a story about how we ate lasagna out of pot lids with serving spoons. The picture I included was one of me. Just me sitting on stairs. I did not mean to send that picture because it was definitely not a picture of us eating lasagna out if pot kids 😂 So below is the actual picture I meant to include!

2. Last week my email was named "This week". That's the name I always name my emails while they're sitting in my drafts. But I forgot to fix the name of it. So y'all just got an email named "This week".

And the two I was laughing at myself for doing yesterday at an event were:

3. I said hi to one of my Zone Leaders, Elder Gunnell, and shook his hand. Then I realized I'd just said like a couple of minutes ago so I said "Oh, I just said hi to you. Sorry!" To which he replied "It's okay. It feels good to know that I'm noticed." And then I continued to say "Don't worry, I always notice you!... wait, that sounded a lot less weird in my head before it came out of my mouth." And then he proceeded to poke fun at me for it. 

4. There's another elder, Elder Taylor, who I only met at our Christmas Conference last Wednesday when half our mission got together and basically had a day of fun. So first of all, the only reason I met him was because I was given a bunch of birthday treats for my recent birthday and needed to give some away. So I turned to the nearest elder (who happened to be him) and offered them to him.  He was happy to have them, but it was also a slightly odd way to meet someone. So the next time I met him was yesterday. I was helping clean up some trays of cookies after an interfaith event and I felt my bag slipping off my shoulder and knew it wouldn't be good if it fell onto my arm. So I turned to Elder Taylor and asked "Will you do me a huge favor and hold this tray for me for one second?" And just then my bag fell AND COOKIES WENT EVERYWHERE! And his reaction was "Who's companion is this?!" ABOUT ME. 😂

So those are my stories of the week that prove that missionaries are far from perfect, even when we're serving the Lord!

I was low on time this week and don't have time to share the spiritual aspects of my week (probably should have written those first, oops) but I'll include them next week! I hope you all have a great week and don't have too many embarrassing interactions with people 😊

Love, 

Sister Bliss

Invitation of the week:

If any of you have done something embarrassing recently, feel free to share the story with me! I'd love to hear someone else's embarrassing stories 😂 Also shoutout to my friend Michael who shared a few of his recent embarrassing stories to make me feel better about myself. I have great friends.
