Ahhhh........

How time flies..... I can't believe that I only have a week and a half left before I leave for my staging event. I feel like I don't have enough time to get everything finished and ready.

Things I still have to do....
Power of Attorney
Insurance
Packing
Last minute shopping trip... I still don't have duck tape!
I'm working up until the day before I leave, lol....
Absentee Ballot Request

I'm sure there is more on my to do list and I will add more as I remember!

Also for anyone who is reading my blog I would just like to apologies in advance for any misspellings, or grammar mistakes, lol....

Finally

Finally after waiting and waiting I have been invited to Kenya! I have excepted the invitation and will be leaving in November for my staging/training/ and then service in the Peace Corps. While in Kenya I will be working at a school for the deaf teaching. As many of you know this worked out perfectly. Having just graduated for Eastern Kentucky University with my teaching degree in deaf education I hope that I will be able to make a difference! Until then I am trying to decide what to pack to take with me. I am only allowed 80 pounds of luggage so this is difficult.

Thanks for everyone who is supporting me with this discussion to join the Peace Corps and please keep up with and comment on my blogs when I leave so that I know what is happening in the U.S.!
