A little, but a lot has gone done in the last day. So I have a friend, we went to high school together for my last two years. We have been decent friends, not really close, but I consider her a good friend. We meet up every once and a while for lunch and we have good conversation. Yesterday I get a facebook message from her that says she is going to be in Belgium in July. I immediately sent her a message back demanding details. She is going to be working with missionaries in Brussels from July until December and the cool part is AFTER December she will return to Belgium in January to stay permanently as a missions worker. This started my best of all of my freakouts over moving. I was so stressed about being there alone. My soon to be husband will be working full time and I won’t be able to work right away because I have to wait and go through the work permit process. I was afraid of being stuck at home with virtually no friends. I have made a friend who is in Belgium full time and she goes to school and I have another who is an ex-coworker of Olivier, but now I have virtually a piece of home. Grace and I grew up in the same city and practically around the corner from one another and we have known one another since we were 16. Nobody understands how excited I am. I told her we are going to have some great adventures. It was amazing how much stress I felt lift from my body when I realized I was going to have someone I really knew not far from me. It feels so good. Hopefully I can maybe get in with this missions thing because since I was 14 I wanted to be a missionary. It is like God saw my desires and my fears and worked it all out. I feel blessed!
I also just realized it is 100 days until the big move!
