Hanging out with the family...

In the south they celebrate Mardi Gras...they officially have two days off of school. I figured I have a few more years to experience what Mardi Gras is like so I decided to visit my family in NY. I had fun teaching my nieces and nephew to beatbox. They are so good at it and it's so cute. I've been having fun playing with the kiddies and hanging out with my sister and bro-in-law. My bro-in-law preached at church the other day and mentioned that him and his family is going back to Jordan in three months...it finally hit me that they are going back so soon. I cried for the first half of his sermon. It's cool that my sister and the family live in another country but I am super sad that they won't be a short flight away! I am blessed to have the time and money to visit them when I can tho!

Stubs

Ouch! MY WRISTS HURT. I have been in so much pain. I don't know why, but my wrists are killing me and interpreting/signing everyday doesn't help. I went to the doctor and I am finally going to see about removing the cyst in my hand...hopefully that will get rid of some of the pain. Some days I just want to chop off my hands at the wrist and walk around with stubs, but then I get a mental picture of me interpreting (with stubs) and I come back to my senses.
