Well I have one work week left here at the center. I guess as the days go by it gets a little more exciting to know that I am going home for three weeks, the off to Wichita. I still have mixed emotions about leaving, but I know it's time because I know I can't stay here another year as a BVSer. It will drive me insane. I need something new in my life. I need another challenge. Going home will clear my head a bit. This last week I am here, I am going to focus on taking as much photos as possible. I've taken a lot of photos since I been here, but there are quite a few people here who I haven't got a picture of yet, but I am going to change all that this week. Not much else to to this week but that. I still have a little more packing to do, most of it will be shipped to Wichita when I get there. I still can't believe my time here is coming to a close, an end of an era.
Last week was a good work week for me because I got a lot done. I felt like that is a good thing because I don't know how much I work I got this week because it is my last week. I got a chance to meet two people on staff that work in the Dominican Republic, Irv and Nancy Heishman. I was very impressed with them. They seem like really nice folks. We prepped one of our Dell Latitude D630 laptops for Irv. Then I got a chance to work with the new Mid-Atlantic District's new District Executive. His name is Gene, and is very cool guy. I prepped a new laptop for him as well. Then on Thursday, I had dinner with Roy Winter, who is the Executive Director of the Brethren Service Center and Brethren Disaster Ministries, and his family. That was one of the better evenings I had in a while. I helped him configure his new second hard drive that he bought for his home PC. I was happy that I was able to help out Roy before I left. Roy is one of the coolest people here at the center and I got so much respect for him as a person, and as the boss of the center. Then my good friend Bekah Houff came down to the center for a week to lead her workcamp. It was awesome seeing her again. I always enjoy visiting any of my unit members and it was cool to talk to her throughout the week while she was here.
Now I am just prepping for the final days that I am here. I think maybe like two or three days before I leave, I might get more emotional, but right now I am just waiting. I am definitely going to keep in touch with most of the people from the center. I can't wait to see what life is going to be like away from here. I hope I find happiness soon. Well, off the have one hellava week. Peace!
