36 hours and counting

Okay,

Here I go. Last blog before Africa. Maybe I'll write something while on the plane since it will take almost 24 hours to get there....granted it is a 6 hour flight to London, 2 hour layover, 8 hour flight to Niarobi. So much time...drug me up baby, this is going to be a long one.

I am looking forward to the challenge but I am also scared out of my mind. Not just about going to Africa but about the climb...what the hell am I doing? This is crazy stuff. Anyway,, had a moment and now back to work...

Happy New Year

So here we go again with the personal promises to better ourselves in some way and follow our dreams. Obviously I have not been doing that too well since this is my first writing in almost two weeks. So much for getting something started where I can write every day or whatever.

On to the plans. I know have less than two weeks before I leave for Africa and I am freaking out...well, not really. The nerves are starting to get to me a little and I have many concerns but I am still excited about it. It will be fun. Although the latest is I am not sure what I am going to eat. I do not eat beef or pork and being a third-world country, I have been warned countless times not to eat the veggies unless they are cooked and fruit only if it is peeled. Alas, I am sure it will all work out...as long as I don't get any bad things...YUCK!

Anyway, back to work for now. Just had a moment where I wanted to get something down.
