Who can believe it? One month from today, I will definitely NOT be sitting on the couch typing in our blog with American Idol auditions on in the background. Don't laugh at my choice of entertainment... I was trying to come up with more ideas to add to Naomi's extensive list of presentation possibilities. I've still got nothing..... Although, Naomi and I kicked around a few things that just may work..... the group will discuss next time we meet!
I've found one of the more interesting parts of this process in preparation to be trying to explain this to other people. I was chatting with family members during Christmas, and was not being very eloquent. I finally said, "Well, it's like this thing, and I'm going with these women, except that we have this man as our leader!" When all of my family started looking at me like I had joined a cult, I decided I needed a much more scripted and eloquent way to elaborate when asked the inevitable.
I have finally gotten it down, and can describe this experience in such a way that makes sense to people. So many people are just vaguely familiar with the Rotary Club, and yet some people seem to completely understand. At any rate, I have a feeling the words I have picked to explain this experience won't come close to capturing what we're about to embark upon. It's such a huge, encompassing experience, it's hard to find just a few words to describe it.
Best of luck to all of us as we try to pack lightly, choose gifts that represent us and show our gratitude, remember our passports, put our Colorado lives "on hold" for 30 days, and prepare to experience a lot!!!!
I'm so excited!
Molly
