Excitement and Anxiety all set in at once. I find myself, with excitement, looking forward to 30 days to focus on everything but work. The other side of me has anxiety of having 30 days away from work.
I started the day off with 2 of my bible studies at Tom Green County Jail. Their joy in learning even the basics of the Bible, the number of books, bible writers, time period written, and the theme of the Bible that Jesus taught has helped them to appreciate the value of daily Bible reading and meditation. So exciting to see someone wanting to learn more.
Next steps for the day were preparing to visit friends in Germany and Romania. Just so I can see everything is not perfect, I had to get a tire repaired and, oh no, replaced. Prep for a 3 week journey continued.
