Dear Sister Hansen:
You are hereby called to serve as a missionary of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. You are assigned to labor in the Indiana Indianapolis Mission. It is anticipated that you will serve for a period of 18 months.
You should report to the Provo Missionary Training Center on Wednesday, October, 8 2014. YOu will prepare to preach the gospel in the English Language. Your assignment may be modified according to the needs of the mission president.
... So this is were life gets interesting, exciting, with a good helping of terrifying mixed in.
This also starts another battle in the war with my mother over, my weight and what clothes I should wear.
"for you I wouldn't recommend buying anything online" they only have certain sizes and no way of knowing if they will actually fit you.
"be careful when you go shoping with your skinny cousin, she knows how to pull really cute things" but they won't fit you.
so we reach an impasse me pinning for the cute colorful clothes I've been pining on pinterest and my mother (with the added reinforcements of my Aunt and my Great Aunt this weekend) trying to be sensible, practical and blunt saying ' lets make sure you have enough navy blue, black, and gray flowy things in your wardrobe to mix and match. they are the most forgiving.'
I knew clothing would be a challenge I just wish this particular skirmish had happened later.
