Getting a blessing, going to Goodwill, and teaching two real lessons

Ayer fue un día más larga. I got up at around 5:30am because I had a nose bleed. It just wouldn't give up for a while and I lost a lot of blood. So closing personal study, I felt terrible so I asked/well Elder MCLAWS offered me a blessing and I took it. It was really good. He paused for long periods of time, but the message got across.

Afterwards, we went with the english Elders to Goodwill Thrift Store, mostly to look for a bedspread for me, because the last two days I have only been sleeping with sheets. No luck at finding anything; Elder Hewitt, from Idaho, found a Iowa t-shirt band shirt that he liked, for a souvenir of Marshalltown. Elder McLaws bought an orange shirt that said something like "orange you glad you found Jesus?" After this, we went to Walmart which is right next to goodwill.

• We taught and old lady and had two real lessons today
• The first lesson to Maria which was frustrating because she knows a lot but doesn't read from the Book of Mormon, but I think we touched her son Chris.
• We taught the 3rd lesson (me for the first time) to Cecilia. She seems to listen and hopefully she'll go to church
