Starting a blog

Well,
     I have started some other blogs in the past and none of them have ever stuck.  However, hopefully this one will be a super success (considering my mom will be keeping it up).  Anyway, the main reason for me to start this lovely little blog is my mission.  Early in March or maybe February I got my call to the Kentucky Louisville mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints.  That was not where I expected to go, but I was happy to serve wherever I was needed.  Well, I read a few sentences ( or maybe paragraphs) down and read that I would be reporting to the Mexico City MTC.  A little bit of a shocker?  Um...a little.  Yes.  It is true I would be speaking Spanish in Kentucky.  Now I can see Kentucky and I could see Spanish, but the two together was not at all what I expected.
     So, now I am preparing to go on my mission.  There is a lot of preparation.  However, it can kind of fun.  Since, I am not the biggest fan of shopping, I don't really keep my wardrobe updated, so a whole new wardrobe was in order.  I am talking shoes, skirts, shirts, and a coat.  The Whole Shabang!  That has been pretty fun.  I have to be missionary approved, but that isn't bad at all.  I like the professional, representative of God look.  Believe it or not, my favorite top is a blazer thingy (see not very fashion savvy).  I also learned that I really enjoy black and white. 4 of my 6 skirts are black and white.  Yah, I guess I like that black and white pattern.  I also have really been likely button up shirts.  NOT usually like me, but for some reason it just worked.
     So, to be perfectly clear I will be a non T-shirt, make-up wearing, hair-attempting ( I have been trying that one for a few years) girl for a while.  I guess being presentable is not too bad of a quality to acquire.  Well, this Idaho girl is ready for her new start in the lovely land of Kentucky.
Adios Amigos,
Heather
