Guatemala
The news came yesterday...I leave for Guatemala Wednesday morning at 6 AM and I'll be back the following Wednesday.For anyone who doesn't know, my sister Cindy is adopting a little girl from a Guatemalan orphanage and we (my Mother, sister Sue, and I) will be going with her to get Gabrielle. I'm looking forward to it. I've only been out of the country as far as the border of Canada and the border of Mexico, so this will be a new experience for me. This orphanage has an apartment on the premises for those adopting, so we will be staying there. I'm interesting in seeing the children and how the orphange is run, and we will also do some sightseeing. I will post more on Guatemala when I return (with pictures!).
For now, I'm focused on getting done everything that must be done before I go. One little twist is school. I'm going to attend a Tuesday nite class to replace the Thursday nite class I'd miss otherwise. I will have a test in both my classes the day after I return which brings a little bit of stress. So, I want to get as much of my schoolwork done as possible before I go. (I don't want to spend all my time down there doing homework!) I will have to do some of my math and study for both tests while in Guatemala. Lord willing, it will all work out.
I missed the Irish Music Festival and was too late to send in my limerick, so I'll share it with you.
There once was a man from Japan,
Who moved all the way to Iran.
Then he said "Oh, no!
The bombs gonna blow!"
And sped his way back home again.
Have a great weekend everybody!
