med school widow
Here we are again, year two now. I say "we" because I feel like med school affects me just as much as it does Chris, just in different ways. I told myself last week I was ready and that last year went by really fast (it really did) but now I am sad and selfish. Monday Chris took me to a movie (Step-Brothers, funny but offensive) and to eat sushi. We played tennis last night. We might play again tonight, if he gets finished studying, ugh. Chris has a UAB shirt that says, "Sacrificing our lives to save yours." So true. I get even more depressed when I think about how residency is going to be. Sigh. It also doesn't help that this semester is going to be the easiest of all. I have four classes, but only one class has exams. Hmm. Enough whining. I am thankful that my husband is fulfilling the duty that God assigned him. I just wish it weren't so time consuming...Chris reminded me yesterday that this is not forever. I have to get a hobby.

So, just so you know, I try to make Quinn take a nap at 10am and at 2:30pm. Usually it lasts for an hour. Unless he's so tired that it doesn't matter if the phone rings. Anyway, all of that was to say that if you ever are in need of someone to chat with, call my house. I will talk to you. But you have to call me, because I never call anyone, except Jonathan - to see why he hasn't called me to tell me he's on his way home.
Anyway, tell Chris you need a t-shirt, too. Because you really are sacrificing as much as he is emotionally.... even if he thinks that's goofy.
I also forgot to mention the debt in my whining...the endless, enormous, constantly-growing debt. It will be seriously close to $1million by the time he finishes residency. I am so serious. Sigh.
I will definately take you up on that phone call...we never talk enough...
I would also like to suggest that you could come to Jasper and visit with me and Olivia...if she ever decides to come. You could do that until I go back to work. :(
Just think...You will be done with school in December and then you will have a job and that will take up a lot of your time.
Love You!
TAKE A DAY AT A TIME I"VE LEARNED TOO. IT WILL GO BY FASTER THAN YOU WANT IT TOO
