Burr it’s cold

Yesterday afternoon I was walking across the parking lot at the hospital, the wind was blowing what I thought was pretty cold air. But being the new gal from Bama I was not about to say anything about it being cold. Last thing I wanted was to be called a Whimp from the south. But while I was in a patient’s room the family started talking about how cold it was and I started laughing a little and had to explain how happy I was that I was not the only one putting on a jacket before going outside.

Just so you know the temp (didn’t know at the time) was in the 40s. And I have not check the weather today but there was prediction of snow in NE Kansas. Which is a few hours away from me but I say “Snow please hold off until I get my winter clothes here!!”

I never said how often I would blog, so I won’t need to say I’m sorry for the long time gap. But I did think it was time to catch up a little.
I have finally found a place to live here in Wichita. It is not in a downtown loft as I once wished. But I did find a townhome complex near work. 2bed,1.5bath. And yes for those worried about my safety during tornado season it does have a basement. I like that there is plenty of room for all my stuff.
Speaking of stuff I really never thought of myself as materialistic but I have been without my stuff for so long I really do miss it. But we will be reunited soon.
Yesterday was my first Director’s retreat here. The morning was spent in a meeting, very good and motivating one I must add, and the afternoon was spent bowling. Very fun, but I will say after seeing some bowl you kind of wonder how we can take each serious again. And as far as my score it doesn’t even need to be mentioned, so I won’t. I will say I had a good time getting to know co-workers and I woke up this morning with a very sore hind end.

Ok I guess that give a little update. Til next time:
