Preparing for Namibia

Hi!

So basically, I am not great at blogging, but as many of you know by now, I have finally received my departure date for the Peacecorps, Nov. 10! I'll be leaving for staging on Nov. 6 and leaving for Namibia on Nov. 10 to be a Health Extension volunteer. I wanted to thank all of you who have supported me and hopefully, will continue to support me. I realize that the incredible support that I have received from all of you is a luxury that most people don't enjoy and I don't take it for granted! I can't express how much it has meant to me to be able to really follow my dreams and simultaneously have the support of those I love and admire. Well, enough cheesiness.

I know that most of you who are reading this are doing equally new and exciting stuff, so keep me up to date, and feel free to ask me any questions or give me any suggestions you like.

In the future, I'll probably be posting my pictures on flckr.com, or webshots.com, although right now there are not really any Namibia pictures on there.

I know that you're not religious but I always like this benediction and thought it was appropriate:

"The LORD bless you and keep you;
The LORD make His face shine upon you,
And be gracious to you;
The LORD lift up His countenance upon you,
And give you peace.
May the LORD bless you
and protect you.
May the LORD smile on you
and be gracious to you.
May the LORD show you his favor
and give you his peace."
-AMEN
GOOD LUCK AND KEEP IN TOUCH.

LUV ABI
