Stateside

As predicted, my blogging has slowed to a pitiful rate upon my return to the States.  I've had a very busy week⎯Monday met my new OB preceptor; Wednesday had class, met urgent care preceptor, then back to campus for class; Thursday worked 8-6pm followed by French class.  Today I got stuck on 94 and arrived nearly half an hour late to my primary care class.  I hate walking into the room late. Still, I'm glad I didn't miss class completely because we had an awesome lecture on PVD.  The speaker was a cardiologist (with a sub-specialty in vascular medicine) whose presentation was sprinkled with very liberal leaning comments about the disastrous state of our health care system. Very refreshing, absolutely made my day.  

After lunch with Syndal, I headed home and started packing.  Tomorrow I'm moving in with one of my friends who owns a house in South Minneapolis.  I'm very excited to get back to the city and relinquish my 45-minute commute.  Unfortunately, I have an uncanny ability to pick the worst days of the year to subject myself and my loved ones to the stresses of moving.  High tomorrow: 4℉.  At least I'm not moving that much stuff.  Fortunately, I have wonderful friends who have volunteered to help.  Thank you.  

Well, I know this post isn't as interesting as my French adventures.  I will try to find something insightful to share next week.  Hope everyone has a great weekend. Stay warm!  Caro

  2. Amber, I'm obviously still confused, haha :)

    Calla, thanks for the words of encouragement. I hate the moving process but usually it's worth the effort. Hope you're still enjoying European life!
