Struggling

It's going to be a rough 4 months of inpatient medicine.
To top it off I'm starting with Peds - not my favorite at all.  I really don't like sick kids.

Also not going to be too much knitting going on.  We'll see.

Hope your spring is going well and you (at least) get to enjoy the outdoors.

Bry and I celebrated Cinco de Mayo last night in proper fashion - after 13 hours of work for both of us and we didn't get home until 10:00pm.  We needed the margarita though!

It's a rough stretch here for both of our jobs - really considering dropping everything and running off to a foreign country.  And working at MacDonald's.  Bry's going to have to start taking the keys away from me - last night we were on the freeway and I nearly just kept driving to Mexico.  Beginning to think Medicine is not the best thing for me.  I've thought it before but now I'm just miserable.  It's hard to do something you don't like for 13 hours a day.  Then again, I keep reminding myself that I am not enslaved in the Corsican salt mines.  But they probably don't have HIPAA and Wisconsin Department of Regulations and Licensing, and Resident Duty Hours there.  Not looking too bad now, huh?
 
How far is Corsica?

  1. I don't think McDonald's will hire you unless you learn how to spell the name. Better stick with your current jobs.

  2. I don't know about you but going through years of medical school , residency interviews, match day & one year of residency with the end of residency in sight means to you can't give up on yourself when you have accomplished all of that! You are a fighter and you will succeed! Where would President Obama be if he were to have given up? Where would all the techies be if they had given up? Nobody said that life would be easy we have to move past our struggles and better things will come to us in the end! You'll see, KEEP FIGHTING! Find the positive in something small each & every day and you will stay positive! I think I need to have Stitch N Bitch night at my house with you & Amy! Let's get together when is a good time for you?
