I was talking to a friend the other day and we were
discussing how the Peace Corps has made us nationalists. She said, “I used to be from California, but
now I’m from the United States of America.”
Highlights:
I joined my Grandma for lunch at the nursing home where
she’s currently vacationing. Not as
satisfying as making apple pies with her at home – they made us eat lunch with
our dessert. Don’t they know that when
you’re that old you get to eat (and serve your granddaughter) whatever you want
for lunch?! Including but not limited to
ice cream sundaes, chocolate chip cookies, and apple pie! Get well soon, Grandma!
Stole leaves from trees in Minneapolis!
I married my best friend… to some guy she kinda likes!
I polkaed with Bucky the Badger! I love you, Wisconsin!
My aunts helped with the pre-wedding celebrations! It was not the bride’s family who was at the
picnic last. It was not the groom’s
family who was at the picnic last. No,
it was the Drake’s who have the staying power to close down any party.
Made REAL chicken pot pies!
Mmm nom nom!
Fall, the best season, was in full swing. The air was brisk and the trees,
gorgeous!
Even though America was great, it is nice to be back in
Panama. I love my community, especially
my adorable neighbor girls, and my job is pretty spectacularly awesome! :)
Life is good. :)
