Meeting new people

I got to meet the first female four star General, Gen Ann Dunwoody the other day


June well what has happened so far

June has been a good month for me. I have been here in Germany now nine months, yeah a number that does not escape me. So in nine months my new life here has grown into something I can be pound of. The work at the hospital gives me a great deal of pride in my profession. As some of y'all may know becoming a nurse was a bit of a leap for me. I was not the type of gal or person (just to keep it pc here folks) who has always wanted to be a nurse since they were small. I was just driving home from a friends house in TN one summer (I had already been at UT for two years at this point) when God and I had a little talk and I decided to become a nurse from then on.


Who knew that one little talk and a few years of school would have me living in Germany taking care of our Nations heroes!!!!!! I just wanted to thank everyone of y'all for your support!


And now for more pictures, come on its the real reason people visit blogs we love the pretty pictures and music!

I have tons more but these are some of the highlights of the trips.

May (wow I got behind again)

So just in case you are wondering I am doing well. Have had a few weeks between now and the last time I wrote that were pretty heavy work wise. It seems to be feast or famine in the amounts of patients we have. Some days we have all locals whom have bogus chest pain (aka indigestion) that the our doctors here like to put in the ICU. Other days we are busting at the seams with vents, burns, blast wounds etc. I have learned to roll with it and am enjoying myself here learning new things each and every day!


Enough talk here are some pictures from the month of May;
