And then I thought. Sunday, July 25, 2010. Pre Service Training Wrap-Up.* Updated! This is my host Father Petar, his father and brother during my last week in training. I got very close with my host family during training and miss them all very much already. These are two very special people in my life, my language trainer who helped me out in so many ways other than just language and my host mother who is just amazing! A great memory for sure. Here we are before the show got started. This was Petar show...

And then I thought. Monday, July 27, 2009. I got my medical packet last month after my nomination and I am still trying to track down some of my old records. With any luck I will have it shipped off before the end of the week! I am hoping to be among the 15% of people that actually send it off the first time with everything filled out and all the information collected (yes it really is only 15%). What happens after I send the medical packet? Friday, July 17, 2009. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). The contents...

And then I thought. Thursday, September 23, 2010. I and Blog and You. It is painful on the way up, luckily there is a small cafe about 3/4 of the way up to give you a little rest, but my legs were shaking for sure on the way down! Back in my village I have been busy (finally) I told my counterpart I was ready, I want to start an after school program and start teaching English to adults. I don't know if it was a communication thing or what, but now I am teaching an after school English class to kids!

And then I thought. Saturday, March 20, 2010. May 10th, 2010 I depart for Washington D.C. I will arrive in BULGARIA. That does not give me a lot of time to get everything in order but it certainly can and will be done. I can't really describe how it feels to finally have real, concrete answers. I was so tired of people asking me questions without having any answers, now people can ask away! Thursday, March 18, 2010. In other words 7.5 weeks! Monday, March 8, 2010. Nobunny knows Easter better. April came ...

And then I thought. Thursday, May 28, 2009. Just got a call from my Nurse Practitioner. She wanted to go over some of my lab results and she found that I am really low in my Vitamin D levels. She said I was somewhere around 13 and she wanted me up around 50! So I have some work to do, and some supplements to take. I did a little research on Vitamin D. And found a ton of information, and just how incredibly useful Vitamin D can be for our cancer fighting abilities and bone strength! Thursday, May 21, 2009.

And then I thought. Tuesday, December 21, 2010. Let it Snow, Let it Snow, Let it Blog. Just wanted to blog quickly and tell everyone hello and Merry Christmas. The snow fell last week and the temperatures sure dropped! My bathroom froze, on the inside! This is the tree my friend Ivanka gave me. I was able to find the decorations and my Aunt gave me the cute penguin ornament that I used as my tree topper. All the gifts under it are also from my Aunt Marilyn. Stocking from my Aunt Marilyn =). Ivy my niece ...

And then I thought. Wednesday, August 4, 2010. What a week and a half it has been! Hard parts I have faced so far:. After I unpacked everything, reality sank in. I mean, I was fine during training, and then SMACK! Two years came and punched me in the stomach! I am not going to lie, I had my own personal meltdown, that unfortunately my Mom got sucked into. Pity Party for one please! Washing machine. I did not and do not expect a washing machine, lets be clear, I realize there are people all over the w...

And then I thought. Sunday, February 6, 2011. Good Morning Blog,. Quick morning update, things are going well here. It is February now and the January blues are wearing off. I am travelling at the end of the month back to Holland for another family reunion. My parents will not be there this time around, but my cousin Sam will be. I am so excited to see everyone! Work continues to be an adjustment. But if I expected anything else I should not have joined the Peace Corps! Saturday, February 5, 2011. Each g...

And then I thought. Tuesday, June 30, 2009. 2) So in college I had a very close friend, Teri. She and I did everything. Together, we were both incredibly active in our school and community and did so much of that as a team. We were inseparable until about half way through our junior year, when we had a pretty bad falling out. Truth is we lived together, and friends should never live together! We have not spoken in years and for a long time I had NO. I just chalked that up to a weird twist of fate, and ma...
