I suppose I should be celebrating my week anniversary her in Izumi. So today we merfed [wasted time] out. we had to check on a new apartment for some other elders. It is quite luxurious by any standard. And for a missionary apt they might get a little bit big headed- because in comparison to our apt. it is a mansion. After that we helped a lady chase down her Labrador retriever. Then go on a bus to get another Elders jikoshokai that he left at the sports center. So we didnt get a lot done. We did go housing & it wasnt too fruitful. Some of the people didnt answer the door after looking through the peephole and seeing two large gaijin [foreigners] outside. I guess it scared her a little. And another after I saw her run down the hall told her 2 year old son to answer the door and say she wasnt there. So we are ganbaru'ing [hanging in there]
