I wanted to take a moment to update my blog...I start Monday in the hospital...actually Monday I have to go for orientation so I won't get much exposure then....So I guess I really start on Tuesday. JT starts his job on Monday as well. Things are going well....It is getting cool up here, which after being in Dominica, is nice....Though I am sure I will hate it when January comes and I am commuting....We look forward to visitors... Have a great weekend.

OK everyone, Here it is....Our HUGE apt.....I say sarcastically. It is finally unpacked and decorated, though we are still without a trashcan. Ironic that you can't just go to target or WalMart of course.. Other good news is that I have clinical schedule....I posted it below. Please feel free to comment. I must go now because we are going to the gym. Love you guys!

I don't have any pictures of our place yet, but I will tomorrow. We are moved in and I do have good news....I PASSED MY TEST. Granted the score was not great but it was passing. We are in NYC and I should get my schedule within the next two weeks. Thank you for all of your prayers and I will post pics tomorrow.

So for those who don't know, we found a place in NYC. We are living in Astoria, Queens which is about a 25 minute commute into midtown Manhattan. It is a small one bedroom in a three year old building that is sixteen stories tall. We are lucky because we have an elevator and air conditioning. Also, because we are on the second floor, we have a large terrace/patio that we share with only one neighbor, a single mother and her five year old daughter. I posted A LOT of pictures below of our apartment and our travels in Chicago and NYC. I hope that you enjoy the pictures. We are leaving on Monday morning for New York. I should start my rotations in early November considering that I get my scores in the next two weeks or so. I am still keeping my fingers crossed about my scores.
