Another week of orientation is over. I spent most of the week in the IV room, which was a reminder of why I am doing this year of residency. I couldn't be in there permanently. I'll be back in there Monday and Tuesday but the next week and a half will be computer training. The other new pharmacists are also training, so I'm excited that we can all be together for this time. I went to the farmer's (I literally just typed pharmer- oops haha) market with my co-resident, her boyfriend, and one of the other new pharmacists yesterday. It was fun to spend time with them outside the pharmacy, and we got ice cream made by the Amish (there are a lot of Amish people in this area- outside the city, of course, but they come into the city to sell food and goods).
My Grandpa Hughes was in town for business this week, so he took me out to dinner at The Oyster House. It was fun to show someone where I live and eat seafood so close to the coast. Mainly it was just good to see someone I know and love!
The Martins from my hometown were also in town this weekend, and took me to Buca di Peppo last night. I enjoyed hanging out with folks from home and talking to their girls (ages 10 and 4). Eating at Buca reminded me of all of the fun times I've had at Buca in KC: Kayla's bachelorette party, my birthday parties, and going there with the JW girls and our guy friends/boyfriends. We even ordered gnocchi!
Sometimes I wonder what in the world I'm doing here in this foreign place, but overall I'm enjoying my new life here. Everyday is an adventure!
