t This aspect of beginning my service in Jamaica is not the fun part. I have been packing and throwing stuff away and giving stuff away with wild abandon. There is just an overwhelming amount of details to attend to when one is preparing to leave the country for two years. Each day sees me a bit closer to being ready and I am trying to take it one day at a time and not stress too much about anything. Afterall, it is only Life!!!
When I return I will tell my friends and family what I need and trust it will all be provided. Besides that, I figure I can go to Goodwill and for a small investment buy everything I need. I am rather liking this de-cluttering phase of my life. It is actually quite liberating.
this is a picture I recently painted of me from a photograph taken in the lates 70's and I was on a picnic in the Texas hill country outside of San Antonio. In the photo I was holding a dixie cup with wine instead of the flowers!
