Here I go again.....

I guess I need to change a few things on the header of my blog....because HERE I GO AGAIN......I got another one of "those phone calls" this morning from Operation Smile...asking if I could join them as a recovery room nurse on an upcoming mission that takes place in just 3 weeks. This time the destination is Tlaxcala Mexico a small village about 75 miles outside of Mexico City.  This is not a co-sponsored trip it is just an Op Smile trip but the Coordinator from my Africa trip was reviewing the LDS Social Services volunteer list from the Nakuru mission when another coordinator came up to her saying she needed a strong Recovery Room Nurse & my name came up & then I got the call.  I have to say I was SUPER EXCITED...I quickly checked my CHOC Calender for conflicts then the family calender....I was scheduled to be in Salt Lake City for Labor Day weekend for Doug's Nutrition store grand Opening & to help Kelli set up her apartment.  We fly in there Thurs night so I figured I could do all that Fri & Sat. The next schedule to check was with Sarah & her 1st day of school - her concerns - pictures & our tradition of homemade cookies after school...a few calls later & I think both of those can be covered.  Next check talk to the COO of CHOC & see if what I would miss meeting wise was okay - alot of hesitance because i have quite a bit of responsibility these days but w hen I said I really felt strongly that I needed to do this & that it truly keeps me connected to my passion of caring for children the answer was  YES...so by noon I had confirmed my participation to a trip to somewhere in Mexico I know nothing about.  All I know is that I have been blessed with the talents I have & I will share those talents to bless the lives of others.  It's gonna be a crazy few weeks - lots going on this week then vacation for a week, then home a week, Utah for a weekend & I will fly from Salt Lake City to Mexico City.  Lots of paperwork to fill out tonight to get a Mexico Nursing License - who knew I needed one?  But I am excited to go on another adventure...so grateful to my family who supports me in this & so grateful that I am blessed with this opportunity to serve....I will keep you posted as I know more :)
