Just found out today that I have 10 days to get a Yellow Fever vaccine. :( I'm told it hurts a lot, and I'm not looking forward to another unexpected and expensive shot.
Earlier today, I sold my truck (Goodbye Chuck the Truck!), so I am stranded at my apartment in Lexington. Kellie picked me up at the Courthouse and drove me around to run errands. (Thanks again!) I'm catching up with roommate and procrastinating cleaning out my closet and cutting down the number of clothes I'm planning to take to South Africa.
Yesterday I made reservations to go to Washington DC for Staging (orientation) on July 6th with everyone else who is going to SA with me. Then we'll all fly out together on July 7th to spend the next 26 months in South Africa! :)
Last weekend I had a yard sale at Kellie&Josh's house and was happy to sell almost everything I'd hoped to. I got pretty sunburnt, and my face especially hurt, but it didn't last too long. My face peeled quickly and now my arms are all flaky and peeling.
Sorry this was all backwards chronological, but that just goes to show you the hectic state of mind I'm in these last few weeks in America.
Had 15 vaccines before coming overseas girl... yellowfever wasn't that bad lol
ReplyDeleteI had the Yellow Fever vaccine a few days ago - didn't hurt any more than a normal shot. A day or so later, it felt like I'd been punched in the arm, but that went away after a day. I wouldn't worry about it!
