Georgia Updates

We are finally getting into the full swing of things down here in Georgia.  I have already been working at University Hospital for the past two weeks including two days in the CVPU (one of the four area's I will be trained to work in).  It is different then what I  was used to at Abbott, especially the way they document and place orders.... think of merging old school electronic medical documentation merging with paper orders... yuck!!!  Other then the documentation piece, I think I'm going to like the CVPU.

Matt has also finished his first full week of school, and is getting familiar with text books.  He will be expected to put aside around 60 hours a week just towards study time.... I don't envy him right now studying action potentials!   We have managed to get out and have some fun with several cook outs with his classmates and their spouses at various homes, including ours last Friday!

Bella is getting used to the heat and humidity down here.  She gets walks by mid morning or late evening to avoid the extremes of the weather.  She has been curious with all the bugs around here, especially the GIANT grasshoppers!  I know a lot of people warned us about the cockroach problem that  happens when living in Ga.  Our landlord did get a chance to spray the house down before we moved in, but those roaches are smart!  They will sneak in as we open the door to let B out to the bathroom which we just grab the vacuum and suck them up in it.  We have had 4 cockroaches to date in our house that we didn't see sneak in, BUT they were belly up due to the spray our landlord used prior to us moving in.

  Hopefully my next post I will have some pics to show of our house and neighborhood.  Our surroundings are very classic Georgia with large homes, large trees, large front porches and friendly people!
