Tonight I received my invitation to serve with the Peace Corps in South Africa, departing January 20, 2016.  I am so excited for this adventure! 
The next four months will be a bit hectic, but I feel up to the challenge.  My family will be coming to Las Vegas to celebrate my pinning with me in two weeks, after which I will focus on studying for, and taking, the NCLEX.  I will need to obtain medical, dental, vision, and legal clearance prior to Peace Corps service.  I will also need to obtain the CDC recommended vaccines prior to my departure for Malawi.
There will be so much more to share in the coming months as I work towards my goals.  Please pray that I can stay organized and accomplish everything that I need to before I leave for Malawi. 
More to come!!!!!
