Setbacks

So far everything has been smooth sailing. So far..... I have my tickets, I have my immunizations, I've got a plan I've got some money... but then one little thing can throw things way out of perspective. I am trying to sell my truck for extra money to use while I am there for the essentials (bed, pots and pans, etc.). It's a decent truck and it's served me well for oh, 6 years? Well today, of all days, I get in the truck to go to church and it wont start. In six years I have had slim to no trouble with the thing and today it just decided to die on me. I called steph and she came and got me and brought me (very late) to church. Anthony and Wil looked at it this afternoon, and are relatively unsure what's wrong but think it might be the fuel pump (a 6-700$ fix) so tomorrow morning, on a rare day off from work that I had 900 other things to do.... I get to call AAA and have the truck towed and looked at...

I am trying not to worry about havng to spend hypothetical money on hypothetical issues... but I am down to 15 days left in Louisville, and I have way more that 15 days left of stuff to do. I guess I should pray and go to bed before my head explodes...

One Month

I decided to start a blog for a few reasons, but mainly as a personal journal and a way to keep everyone up to date and connected when I leave for Zambia. It hit me yesterday that I have exactly one month. I have been so amazed by how smoothly things are going. God is definately in control. Today I got my doctors appointments, eye doctors appointments out of the way, my plane ticket arrived and I spent time at the travel clinic getting my immunizatons are taken care of. All I have left to do is pack... time is flying....
