Teach for America: I have a home!

IMG_6103

Today I signed a lease on a home in Jackson! I’m so excited – it’s a duplex in the neighborhood where my school is located. It’s cute on the outside and needs some work on the inside, but my landlords are fixing it up before we move in on Monday. Today was an adventure of getting water and trash set up at the new place, and getting horrendously lost on dirt roads somewhere south of Indianola when I took a detour to avoid traffic – that’s where I found the sunflower field pictured above.
