Here I go...

My first official blog.
I have 5 weeks until I leave for Peru, and God and I have already raised $8,500 through donations or pledges!! Things are going amazing so far.
Things in my way... I was just sick for a week, which left me with unpaid time off from work. But, it's okay because God made sure that all my bills were paid!
I am flying home to Ohio for Christmas tomorrow to spend time with my family. Then, on Monday, I am flying to Vegas with three of the most amazing friends in the world. I have known Amy for 20 years, and I have known Gretchen and Trista for 15 years. These three girls are such great friends, and I have been blessed to be able to keep in touch with them even though life took us to different colleges in different states. We are having one last WOOT before I leave for Peru and Amy leaves for Africa with the Peace Corps. It's going to be a blast!
Trying to tie things up before I leave.... I have arranged for someone to buy my car, which is a huge God send. I have to get my shots still, three of them... I hate needles, yet I can get tattoos. Weird lol :)
Anyway, that's all I have for now. Must pack for my flight and make sure all my Christmas presents are ready. God is soooo amazing, and I am so blessed. I can't wait for Peru.... please pray for me!
