A Few Days as a Bachlorette! (i dont think i spelled that right?)

So every year Brad and his buddies participate in golf tournaments throughout the year and one happens to fall on the 1st weekend of October, called appropriately Mr. October. It is apparently a tournament that enlists such pride and dignity to the winner who will win this title of Mr. October. It is the last tournament of the season when the boys go and face each other as opponents but the worst enemy to face is the gruesome wind, rain, and freezing conditions. They must be crazy because I was cold in my cozy house snuggling up in a blanket in front of the TV.

Luckily, I didn't have to face the bachlorette life alone. Noelle and Brynnley came over and we watched chick flicks and did the girl talk since she also has a crazy husband who wants to participate in this insanity.

Work was my next companion to keep me company. I worked this weekend and we were insanely busy. I am simply recovering from last night when we saw almost 100 patients in one day! Most of you may not think that is a lot but our average is about 1/2 that so you could imagine the chaos. I believe at one point there was 25 kids in the waiting room...waiting to be seen by myself and the other physician. It was a daunting task but we tried to keep our spirits up and kept cycling the kids through. I didn't see many thrilling cases...a lot of influenza, lacerations, and football injuries. So, a word to the wise....Wash your hands, wear your helmets, and watch out for sharp objects! =)
