You've got to stock up on a lot of stuff before heading down to Banica...wowzers! Yesterday I went grocery shopping so I decided to stock up while I was at it. Shampoos, conditioners, purell, bug spray (muy importante! No me gusta dengue!), sun tan lotion, medicine (cold and flu, pain killers, antibiotic ointment, anti-itch medicine for the bug bites I will get haha, tums and pepto (because let's be honest... I am going to a third world country with minimal running water haha and I've been there before), calcium supplements, bandaids, etc.), twin bed sheets, flashlight, new water bottle. Phew! Good times!
Can you think of anything else I might need? If so - let me know! I also order a new religious ed book that is bilingual to help with my lesson plans and youth group stuff. I got YouCat as well (which is blowing my mind right now haha). Clothes, towels, and suitcases are on the list too...but I've already got that stuff haha!
I'm currently at the airport waiting to go on a little vacation. I am heading out to Washington state ( I always feel the need to clarify around here haha...NO I am not flying across the beltway!) to visit my boyfriend and his family. They are so great and I miss him sooooo much :) it will be fun.

I'm a Blogger!
Welcome! This is a new blog I've set up so that my loved ones back home can follow my adventures in Banica. In August of 2011, just over a month away from now, I will be heading down to the Dominican Republic for a year to serve as a missionary and teacher for the Catholic Diocese of Arlington. I cannot wait to being this new adventure and am SO beyond thankful for all of the wonderful people who have supported me. More to come!
