... DONE!!!!!!!!!!
I wrote my friend, Jeanel, once a month for 6 months.
To some, that might seem like a silly item to have on my list, but I don't think so. Jeanel and I roomed together in college. After college, she joined the Peace Corps and headed to Niger (pronounced knee-jer), the poorest country in the world (it's in west Africa).
Anyhow, I had the honor of an invite to spend a few weeks with Jeanel, so I jumped on it ... you can check out my chronicles of Africa by CLICKING HERE.
After Niger, Jeanel kicked in the US for awhile, but her heart was in Africa (and I can't blame her!). She soon landed a job with Mango Tree and back to Africa she went. I'm just so proud of Jeanel for following her heart (but I miss her like CRAZY!!!!!!!!).
I'm a firm believer in the belief that everyone likes to receive hand-written letters. When she was in Niger, I fairly regularly sent mail, but once she returned, I've been a slacker ... so undertaking letter-writing for 6 months was a big accomplishment for me!
Thus, crossing off yet another item from my 101 in 1001 list.
