4 weeks to go




Things are winding up around Fargo. My last day of work at the HoDo is this Saturday. They all will be missed, as well as the amazing dishes the cooks created. MMMM. Beans and Rice here I come!

The next few weeks will be filled with finishing a painting, the continuous stream of paperwork the Peace Corps sends me, knitting baby hats for babies I won't yet get to meet, deciding what to pack for two years (not an easy task), packing, and of course spending as much time with friends and family as I can.

I'm feeling slightly overwhelmed, but mostly excited. I'm MOVING to the Dominican, a tropical island with beautiful beaches and no snow. How could I not be excited!

My ship out date is the 13th of February. Off to D.C. for some pre-training. I've never been there, hopefully we'll have a little time for sight seeing. Then off to the DR on the 16th. I'll keep you posted on details.
