| Beautiful drive to work this morning!!! |
Ryan and I are on week #2 of our travel assignment in SD and we couldn't be more blessed!
The hospital we are working for is a level 2 trauma center and does a fair amount of surgery cases daily.
I cannot stress enough how many talented and pleasant people work at this hospital. It is truly refreshing to work in an environment with people that not only take pride in their work, but they go out of their way to help each other out!
There has been talk about possibly resigning Ryan and I for another 3 months in SD...but we shall see what happens between now and June! (we definitely wouldn't mind extending our contract!)
Southern Twang
Something Ryan and I have heard since day #1 here:
"You've got an interesting accent....where in the world are you from?!"
I didn't realize how southern I sounded until I got up here. (Ryan on the other hand has a decent sized southern accent lol)
I've caught myself saying, "Ya'll" a lot. I'm proud to say that I've taught some of the ladies what 'Bless your heart' means lol
Funny story time:
Today Ryan was asked if he was ready for the patient to be brought back to the O.R. and Ryan said, "Why aintcha' gone yet"
The nurse just stared at Ryan with a puzzled look for a few moments. Ryan then replied, "You are trying to figure out what I just said, right?"
Oh well....we're just bringing some good ole' Southern Charm to South Dakota!

I think next time I will try and freak them out by saying this:
I get to take my first day of call tomorrow (happy squeal!!) I am a bit of a dork when it comes to the O.R. lol I love working in surgery for so many reasons (too many to list) I am looking forward to seeing how their call is here.
Ryan and I are just about completely settled in our new apartment (only a few boxes still in sight around the living room).
Had a terrible craving for chocolate and decided to check out this place:
 |
| Took Ryan's car around town in the 70 degree weather! |
 |
| The mall makes me super happy |
 |
| Ahhhh...we love this place! |
Next week we plan on doing some more in depth exploring around here. Neither of us is on call next week, so we are going to have some fun!!!
Until next time.....
