I woke up at 4:30 to travel down to the training site to train the trainees. I had 5 hours of "homework" tonight. The program should be good - or at least, it better be!
It's bizarre being at the training site and the only volunteer. It feels...backwards. But I get to misrepresent everyone else, which is fun.
All in all, it's starting to feel like it's been one year. I can tell my language is in a good place. I handled the ride down here so well I practically slept the entire time, and I'm generally comfortable.
It will be fun to see the new trainees come mid-October and have some real perspectives on how things are in the States right now.
I've been thinking about a quote that Ellen sent a while back by Thomas Edison. It roughly says that we would amaze ourselves if we did all we were capable of. Well, I think I'm trying to do that. Maybe "stress" wasn't in his vocabulary.
Maybe I can relax...Saturday. Yeah, Saturday.
Peace
John
