1. I am currently eating ice cream for lunch in Charlotte Airport on my way to Lexington to visit a dear friend
2. 3 out of 16 women in my midwifery class got engaged over break. odd. amazing
3. Obama won the Iowa caucus and is well on his way in New Hampshire tomorrow - a fact that is hard not to get excited about... regardless of how undecided I was before
4. I had a very relaxing and computer free vacation - a lovely Christmas at home with Caleb and my family complete with a plastic talking Jesus - a quick trip to Virginia to see my whole entire quasi-Mennonite crew and some historical houses and (out) houses - a visit to Frank Loyd Wright's Falling Water - and a snow filled fabulous few days for new years in New Hampshire.
5. I haven't worked a day at the hospital while on vacation - but did send a huge check to my union, as I'm still technically a member of my bargaining unit. Argh. Union dues. Good in theory. Making me broke in practice at the moment. I think I may have forgotten how to be a nurse.
6. Luckily for me, I'm working on other things - and am knee deep in information on maternal mortality and post partum hemorrhage for a research proposal I'm writing for the summer (fingers crossed).
7. My ice cream (it had fresh blueberries and raspberries - the best thing I could find in this airport - snobby me) is all gone now.
here are some pics to share from my vacation.
