Getting ready for June 23

I bought my plane ticket and am anxiously awaiting June 23 when I leave for Argentina! It seems like it will never get here, but I know that the time between now and then is important! This weekend I got to see both sides of my family for the last time, well for the next 11 months. It was great to see them and spend time with them before I leave the country!

My job before I leave is to clean up my room. This doesn't just include cleaning, though; it involves going through everything I own and simplifying, organizing, and packing away in storage. This has been more work than I thought it would be, but it has been nice to finally get rid of things that I don't need or use. I've also been going through things from when I was young and even stuff from highschool. It's been fun to revisit those memories! I'm still working on this project and hope to finish soon!

I am babysitting and working at the YMCA both once a week! It's nice to just be working a little bit because it leaves me time to concentrate on getting ready to leave!

I pray and trust that God will continue to guide me in this time of preparation!
