8 days ... wait 30 days.

So just over a week from what was supposed to be staging, days after my last day of work, and 2 days after my going away party, our group got the news that our staging would be delayed for a month. March 9th is our new departure date. .... I cant say that this is shocking, PC is pretty careful when it comes to danger/uncertainty in their host nations. Even though we were reassured on friday that staging was going on as planned, nothing during this whole process has been easy, so i didnt get my hopes up on leaving on time. I dont think i will be at ease until I am on the ground in Mada. So i guess this just gives me more time with the people i love back here in MN. I would be lying if i didnt tell you that i cant wait for the day i get back to see these people again. So now i will have the chance to say goodbye again.

But this only gets me another month of MN winter. A taste of spring, near 40, on my bday gave me a jolt of energy but near 0 temps today is sent me back into the winter mode. I just want to exercise outside to get the endorphines moving again.

anyway these are just random thoughts from a coffee shop.
the sun is shining and i have no ogligations for the next month. it should feel good right.
but honestly i am already bored. idle hands.
or maybe i am just unproductive.
