$15.97...

...is what I spent on Sunday for:
- 4 pairs of shorts (the current temperature in New Orleans is close to 100 degrees!)
- 4 short sleeved shirts
- 1 pair of comfortable pants (recommended during the insulation process)

The Goodwill store is a wonderful place! I am almost done packing.

We had another meeting on Sunday, and we went over most of the final details. 4 women (including me) are going for the first week. 3 of us were at the meeting and agreed to share a hotel room (55 bucks divided by 3= cheaper than 55 bcuks by myself!). We are also driving down together.

This is the schedule so far:

Saturday, July 26: Meeting at 6:30 AM at the Vineyard.
Drive down to New Orleans: Approx 13 hrs
Sunday: First day of work- Insulation
Monday- Thursday: dry wall/ mud taping/ paint, tile
Friday: drive back to Dayton

I am sad about missing the last segment of the never-ending (jk) emotional roller coaster series, not working with the kids, missing a ministry training class, an outreach event, and the WOW service while I am gone. I am also a little nervous, but I am more exited than anything else! I cant wait to see how God will use me and each one of us during this trip. Plus, it turns out that hanging dry wall MAY not be as difficult as it sounds...

EED
