They made it through his first rotation.
Lots of long days.
And a bunch of over night calls.
She realized that on the nights he's on call, "dinner" is peanut butter on a spoon and some cereal.
No good.
He's enjoying being a doctor though.
The patient interaction is interesting & challenging.
The monitoring two cell phones is lame & challenging.
And let's be honest, the work phone rings waaay too often.
And let's be more honest, "too often" means "in the middle of the night."
Her productivity is way down.
And even without the night phone calls, she's not sleeping.
But that usually means a new idea is on the way.
So in general, morale is high for E & P.
They even managed to get out for two date nights.
AND!
They are both bike riders!
It's awesome!
And they still have just the one car.
They'd like to stick with one car forever.
But something tells them once their kids have to go to soccer cheer practice a second car (but not a minivan) might be in order.
They are very serious about settling down in San Diego for the rest of their days.
She's hoping they never have to leave their two bedroom apartment in downtown.
Check back in July 2011 to see how well that plan worked out.
enJOY it
