So...this is my first try at a blog....I've never felt compelled to write one before this, but with our being about to embark on the "adventure of a lifetime" I felt that this would be a way to share this with you......So the big adventure is that Joe has been accepted to medical school!!! Can you believe it??? After leaving his career and taking the big brave step of returning to university to complete an undergrad honors degree in biology his (and mine, let's not forget mine!) hard work have paid off.....Now where the "excellent adventure" part kicks in is next....are you ready??
WE ARE MOVING TO THE CARIBBEAN....YES YOU READ IT RIGHT....I SAID THE CARIBBEAN!!! We are moving to a tiny tiny wee island in the middle of the Caribbean....the island is called Saba and before this I had never heard of it....but I am learning lots quickly and connecting with people living there and studying there and I have to say that I am pumped! Oh and here's the sad news (ha ha....) There are NO social work jobs on Saba...not one teensy weensy one and so I....Dawn....will not have to WORK.....I know you are thinking holy cow.....living in the caribbean and not working???? At least that is what I am thinking and I am so excited.....I have been dreaming every night, and sometimes during the day (sorry work) about this whole thing.....it feels a little crazy, but I just know it is meant to be......Joe, of course is very excited as well....Christian can't wait and Monty is a little hesitant but he is warming up to the idea.....so before you go any further go google SABA or here are a few websites
www.sabaedu.com (the med school site) and www.sabatourism.com (self explanatory)....I am expecting all of you to come visit us while we spend 20 months (Jan '09-Aug '10) in paradise, ok? Toodles for now......Dawn
