I'm really starting to get nervous about our trip. Today I got a little teary eyed when thinking about how much I'll miss Mark and the rest of my friends and family. I don't know, it could just be me getting emotional in my old age. Mark is planning to come down twice during the 3 1/2 months we're there, so at least I've got that to look forward to.
Layne has completed the orientation for his online classes. He'll begin working on those next week. I'm thankful that we'll have a couple of weeks for him to get settled into his school routine before we leave. I think that will make his transition a little easier.
I've bought a lot of supplies to take with us...toiletries and school supplies. Not to mention socks, bug spray, sunscreen, hats, and new tennis shoes. From what I understand we'll be walking just about everywhere so new shoes are a must. I'm hoping all that walking will help get me into better shape, too. We'll actually start packing our bags next week. One of the girls who completed her student teaching in Costa Rica last semester advised me to only pack lightweight clothing, even though it's January. I checked the weather and today it was 81 degrees in Escazu, so I'm really going to try to go with that advice.
