Still going....

AS the weeks drag on by I continue to build with anticipation. I am so ready to go at this point. Im sure as I step onto the plane I will get those cold feet, jitters, etc. but Im ready to at least get to that point. Sleep has been an issue lately. As soon as I am laying down and it is quiet I start thinking of everything....from staging...to training...to placement at my site...to what I am going to do after the peace corps...all of this tends to keep me awake.

I had a great going away party yesterday that people from my Moms work threw for me...it was a fantastic time. Went out to the country and rode a zip line over a pond and drove around on a four wheeler. Dr.T even made some great cherry cobbler the old fashioned way (in a kettle in the fire). Overall a wonderful day. It was good to get out of the house a bit.

Also went to the zoo on friday. I was acting like a five year old looking for all of the animals that live in Kenya constantly yelling out...'THIS ONES MINE!' everytime I saw one. By the way weve got spitting cobras, green and black mambas, and the ever popular puff adder....good times!

Made a big mistake...did a google search....Kenya and Spiders......dont do it for your own good.
