Well, its official. I'm going to Africa in 3 weeks! I've got about 10 days left in the lovely south, the red hills of Georgia, and the mess of kudzu vines where you never know what you will find. I'll miss the area, and if I ever get a chance to live in the US again wherever I want, I'd pick Georgia.
I'll miss the kids, but I'm also gonna meet alot of neat people, including lots of kids! I'm excited! My portuguese is gonna be completely in God's hands, though, since I haven't really practised it in well over a year.
I'm working on reading 8 books in 3 weeks. I've got 1 1/2 down... The first one was really good, and the second is a bit drier, but still really good.
I've changed the lyrics to the Caedmon's Call song "Two Weeks in Africa" to "Two months in Africa" and am listening to that now. Along with Portuguese worship songs, so much that I have trouble singing the songs in English. "Deus pode salvar, meu Deus pode salvar!"
And in addition to getting stuff ready for Africa, I'm also packing up my life again and schlepping all my stuff back to CT to be stored for a few months until I get back and figure out where I'm going after Africa.
