In just a few days, our primary residence will be in the
Cradle of Liberty! Of course, we won’t quite be there yet to fill our apartment
with packed-to-the-brim boxes and furniture, but that doesn’t mean we can’t be
excited! We have one more milestone to complete before then – boards.
Specifically ortho boards. More specifically one of the hardest tests known to
man, a test in which the taker is graded against the best and brightest top quartile
of all physicians. Just a little pressure
there. Spence has been studying, and I know he will pass without a problem,
but you just can’t really mess around with an exam like that! So we’re
hunkering down for the next two weeks in preparation. I’m working my last few
days at the wonderful places here as Spence studies those days away, hoping
they’re productive but quick so that neither of us (mostly him) go too crazy. It’s possibly
an unfortunate and rushed way to say goodbye to Rochester, but we’ve had this
town. It has been good to us. We’ve made friends and learned our trades and
gone on many adventures in and around this city and state… And it’s time. Time for
our next big adventure.
But first! The day after boards and my last day of work, we’ll set off for a week-long stop in glorious Wyoming.
We’ll get to tour the new Imagine Acres where Joe and Rose Stanbury will host
us with our children someday J.
And we’ll also get to see some other family and friends that we love so much. It’s
going to be great. The hardest part will be trying to get some time to
ourselves when we will want to spend as much time with our people as possible!
It will be one huge – maybe the most humongous ever – sigh of relief trip. We officially
will be out of the bunker.
Next year will be professionally challenging for both
Spencer and me, but we will be doing exactly what we want to be doing, and that
makes a huge difference! We will also have a recreation dream world at our
fingertips. And – NO KIDS to screw it up for us! (Just kidding, kids. Sort of.
;) But it is one last hurrah before we start thinking about having some little
berries. We actually are getting a paycheck for doing what we like without too
much other responsibility in an incredible city for a year. We are planning
on epicacy. Not a word, no; but you get the point.
I really want to document as much of the year as possible on
here, and I will certainly do my best! I think I still have a few stories to
tell from earlier this year. Hopefully I’ll get to them, too.
Here’s to at least a full year of adventures with the
