He's gone again............

My son left today for Le Mans, France and even after all the times he's gone abroad before, I still hurt when I left him at the airport, and yes there were a few tears.
He'll be gone for ten or eleven months and although I'll see him in December (when I go to visit) I'll miss him terribly! He'll be teaching English to students at the university and making a difference in lives.I'm so very proud of him and all his accomplishments.

I have decided to do volunteer work for United Way to keep busy and to improve myself and my life.
I have been thinking of doing volunteer work for some time and after inquiring about it, I received a packet of information this week.I am excited about several opportunities offered and have a meeting on Saturday to check out a possible choice.
