My first post

I've started this post 5 times already and then deleted everything 5 times over. I have never blogged before, well not including my sustainability blog. But that wasn't personal so I don't think it counts. So here it is my first blog. What do I think? Too personal, who would care to read this? and why am I even bothering? Once I dismiss those questions out of my head I can attempt to begin to "blog."

These last few weeks and the weeks to come are special. Special because come February I will no longer have the simple pleasures I am so used too-- my marshmallow like bed, driving into Annapolis everyday, watching the sun rise over the Bay, seeing my family everyday, Proudly cheering GO NAVY,living in Annapolis and having Naval Bagels whenever I please. But I am ready. Ready to enjoy my time left and ready to say goodbye. I know this season at home was given to me to prepare me for a season away even it its a whole 2 year season away. 

I am scared, sad, happy and freaking out at the same time. Sound familiar? There is a Taylor Swift song with similar words. (love her) So until I leave I will choose to enjoy this time at home, in the office and walking dogs. As I await the unknown adventure ahead. I am confident knowing that I was designed to be a Peace Corps Volunteer, this is my purpose right now. So keep the encouraging words coming that I hear everyday. They mean so much. Keep telling me how awesome Paraguay will be and what a great experience it will be. I believe it and need to keep hearing it! 

P.s

Biggest fear right now is that I will have to eat pig ears. Not the kind of bacon I prefer. 

Truth

Some inspiration as I prepare for my next adventure!
