This is my last post from home. I'm so sorry, dear blogger friends, that I've had so little time this past week to update and respond to your lovely comments and posts. Just know that they've meant the world to me. I'll be thinking of all of you constantly while I'm gone and will do my best to check in on you as frequently as I can.
Liz, I got your package today. You are an absolutely amazing and kind and generous person. Thank you so, so, so much my dear! Everything in it was so utterly PERFECT. I wish I had time right now to post pictures of it all, but I'm heading out the door to take care of some last minute things as we speak. Just know that this meant the world to me, and I'll send you a better thank you as soon as I get settled in India.
India. Tomorrow!!!
Goodbye for now everyone. I love you all and will miss you tremendously. Please feel free to email often (faz222@aol.com)! I'll do my best to get back to you as soon as I can. I'll be blogging of course, as well.
Off I go, into the infinite abyss. Wish me luck ;)

Bring us back wonderful tales - and you be safe!!
Big hugs!!
Have the time of your life!!!!!
You are likely flying over an ocean as I write this. Thank you so much for sharing "the facts" of this trip and exciting time in your life. It will be rich beyond words, Frankie, for you and for those whose lives you touch.
I am so eager to hear from you and to learn how you are and what you are finding in your midst. The poverty will be heart-breaking and unlike anything you have seen in that regard, but there is much more than poverty in India - and I hope you will find time to travel away from your work projects to see the country in its many dimensions.
We wait for your next post with great anticipation...
Best wishes,
Sky
your words really touch the soul. have a wonderful time here. 'sky' has said it right. there are much more than poverty in india. it's a place where you have the skyscrappers and the slums co-existing side-by-side. probably that's the symbol of a growing economy. you'll find the dirt btw your fingers, laced with hunger, corruption, negligence, struggle, stinks..yet you'll find the warmth and love. welcome to India.
