home sweet home

Gary and I are taking a dramatic step...don't worry, not too dramatic. We are moving from condo living into a house. Slow down a second, you say? It has only been 11 years, why rush anything? Well, having our little Lander has made us grow up a bit, I think. Plus, it is just a pain in the ass to take Lander outside all the time while living in a condo. It is more than that though, we also just don't want to be living on top of people all the time. We need some SPACE! So I am pretty excited about it, although it is pretty crazy the amount of rent we are going to pay here in San Diego for a house. We found a cute one, with a lot of character, near the bay and also right on a canyon for running. Should be perfect! I can't wait to move. I have definitely outgrown this place, but i will miss the pool and hot tub and gym! That is all that is new in my world. I am still getting up at 4:30 am for my trauma rotation. It has gotten a little more sane as supervising physicians have changed, but I am simply exhausted all the time. I am also much more short tempered. Gary was surprised the other night when I honked at some people who were taking their sweet time to get out of a parking spot! Lack of sleep, exercise and socialization does something to a person. No wonder surgeons are how they are. I would be miserable too if I had to do it longer than a month.
