No matter where I am I have friends who are half a world away. I want to stay connected and keep my supporters informed. Some times I will be very busy and only update once in a while. Other times I might bore you with how much I have to say :) Just check back once in a while when you are thinking of me and see what I'm up to!

Welcome to 2018!

Wow!  December disappeared quickly and January is following that trend :)  December brought many things including the end of my regular 7-week classes so I am left with the 14-week practicum!  I had the chance to head to Colorado for a week with my family.  We packed up and sealed another donation box to be shipped to the Philippines.  I definitely determined I will be focusing on the Oxford series for my curriculum. And last, but not least, with your help, I hit the 50% mark for raising start-up funds :)

January is already half over and a few things are going on now.  I officially started my practicum and have the first unit complete.  I learned how to drive a manual shift car and almost got one, but it needs major repairs so I backed off.  I just finished planning a small fundraiser event called: "A Filipino Feast" and will be sending out invitations this week. And I am working on an elimination food plan that will slowly reintroduce potentially problematic foods into my diet so I am prepared when I go overseas to know if there are things I need to avoid.

What will the next few months bring?  Only God knows for sure!  I really hope to boost my monthly pledges and get some more hours working.  I'm just plugging along at life and doing my best to enjoy every day as it comes.  Thank you for continued support and I hope to hear from you soon!

This is what I am doing to help learn about my food sensitivities and prepare for the new foods I will be eating in the Philippines.  Basically, I'm taking out all processed foods and most of the common allergy foods then I will reintroduce them slowly after 30 days without.
