Location: Memorial Headquarters, Atlanta, GA - the BUNK ROOM.
So, we have almost three weeks of consultant training here at Executive Office and today is the end of day 2. Thus far, it's amazing. Exhausting, but so amazing and I can't believe we're really here and this is actually happening.
We live in the Bunk room. There are 4 sets of bunk beds, and one long closet built into one wall, with multiple doors. We share a bathroom, all seven of us - and so far it's worked just fine. We have a half kitchen stocked full of food, and a den room with a TV and DVD player.
The house is beautiful and I'm afraid to touch anything. By the end of next week, all the guest rooms and pull out couches will be filled with Grand Council members and District Team Directors. Wow...it's just a lot to take in.
Tonight looks like it's going to be a late night because we went to dinner at the Treehouse - delicious, and then spent a few hours in the two-story Target. It even has an escalator that you hook your shopping cart into! Around midnight we're supposed to have an International Officer coming in after her flight was delayed, and we have to let her in. Every morning starts at 9AM.
I've been able to keep in touch with people pretty well so far, and it sure does help to have such amazing friends - it makes the day not seem so long and I know it will help when we finally get on the road. There are times of the day where I will find myself coming down from a high, after someone mentions a certain topic I'm still a little sensitive about...but other than that and a small head cold, I've been in great spirits and we're all have a blast getting to know each other. Our true personalities are starting to come out and it's great.
Tomorrow starts recruitment training, and it goes on ALL WEEKEND LONG. Whoo! Get excited...better get some rest.
