Well, things have taken a turn for me! I'm actually in Washington DC right now because they had to medevac me! Remember that crazy bone in my knee? Well, it had to be removed! But my experience has been great! I'm staying in a nice hotel with a fellow volunteer and they were so awesome at the hospital. And they were super fast! Literally, I flew in on Sunday evening. Monday I had appointments all day and Tuesday I got the surgery! So have no fear! I'm going back to Costa Rica by the end of the month! Though, I am a little disappointed. I had a goal to not go back to the States the entire time I was in Peace Corps, but this just could not be avoided. But good news! My sister and my father are going to visit me! Kelly's arriving today and my father on Monday! I'm just so thrilled! Hopefully we can go eat at Bonefish so I can get my Bang Bang shrimp tacos! :) My healing is going well. I'm able to walk now without my roller walker or my cane! But I looked pimp doing it when I needed them! I feel really great and in high spirits and I'm definitely so happy to return to Costa Rica! I'm not done there yet! And my little doggy is still there! I think that's been the hardest part! Not having Zuli with me! But if everything goes as planned, in about 2 weeks or less, I'll be returning to CR! But I've been having a great time in DC! Everything is so new, nice, and clean! And me, the most directionally challenged person, has been using the metro like a breeze! I've been trying all the newest candies! Pretzel m&m's, coconut m&m's, milky way with just the caramel, double flavor skittles, and my old favorites, rolos, york peppermint patties, and almond joys! I've been in candy heaven! I also get to watch Wheel of Fortune, a forever favorite of mine! So life is good! I'll keep you posted for my return! Hurricane Leah belongs in Costa Rica!
Zuli's new friend/sister, Nina! I'm trying to find her an owner, poor thing! She's such a great dog!
