Okay, well not yet. But soon I will be! I bought my tickets on Sunday. I leave on a Tuesday, stay in a hotel in the Miami airport overnight, and leave early the next morning for Haiti. I will be there almost a month, flying back into Elmira, NY with no overnight stay, but 3 different flights that I am already praying will be on time. I thought it would be really scary to buy the tickets but I didn't feel scared at all! I felt like it's the right move for me. I think it is going to change me in ways I can't predict and I am excited (and maybe a little scared) about that. The ticket cost $784, plus the hotel in the airport cost $130, so I have spent a little over $900 already! My room and board will be about $700, plus my shots...ugh. It's a little overwhelming if I think about it too much. So. I am just going to keep praying that the money comes from somewhere! Thank God my parents are watching my girls (cat & dog) or I would have a nice kennel bill to add to that. So THANKS Mom and Dad!!
I am tentatively planning my yard sale for Memorial Day weekend. I'll keep you posted!
