the clock is ticking

How is May almost over?!? I finished my contract at Scott & White hospital the end of April, so haven't been working the past 4 weeks, but I seem to have been even busier during my "vacation." Preparing for Africa, visiting family and friends, and spending time with Pat have made this month fly by. I'll be leaving Temple on June 6 for a week of training and seminars east of Dallas, and leaving America June 12 for 6 months of service in Sierra Leone. Getting more excited and nervous as each day passes, and trying not to develop anxiety over leaving my honey. I'm so glad for this opportunity, but it's going to be a tough 6 months. To live is certainly an awfully big adventure.
