spring

Spring is here this week. After a very hard week with another hard one coming up, Clifford and I got some sledding in today. We went to Buttermilk since that mountain and all of them (except Highlands) are closed for the season. We got to play in slush. It was fun.

So the week started with work Mon through Thursday in the clinic and then a VERY long Thursday night in the hospital. I have been using my critical care skills a lot lately and Thursday was no exception. Then Friday I had a photo shoot for a local magazine doing an article on RPCVs (Returned Peace Corps Volunteers) and then went to see some friends I haven't seen in a long time. Saw Shinta, Sarah and then Jen and got my hair cut at Jens. Had to return containers that Shinta and Sarah had given me with food in; I love that my friends know I can't cook and give me food. Did some hiking during the day and came home and went to sleep. Saturday was an INTENSE 12 hour Fundimentals of Critical Care course that I hadn't studied for since I was doing so much critical care and had not time for. I was dreading the course but it was fantastic (and LONG with no breaks for lunch!). Got home just before 7pm and Brad had set up Mercy so we could try it out. Took a shower in the house and got rid of a huge tick and then Brad, Clifford and I slept in Mercy last night and it was fun. It will be great on our trips!

Ready for some more work... 50 hours in the clinic this week minimum and then finally 2 days off in a row to catch up. Till next week when it might be winter again...
