So, even though I don't have to have a post today for the A to Z Challenge, I thought it would be fun to share some of my favorite posts for those of you new to my blog site.
I have been blogging since 08/06/2007 when I was heading east from Minnesota to Buffalo. My first blog was entitled "Do They Have Squirrels in Buffalo?" because I had developed quite the squirrel army on the property of our rental near White Bear Lake, and I was going to miss the daily goings-on of my little furry extended family.
That blog chronicled the first year of my Emergency Medicine residency and the adjustments I had to go through switching from a surgically-trained mind to an emergency medicine trained mind. I finally got married to the man of my dreams in that year, and we went on a belated honeymoon. I wrote about the different rotations I was having to do, and how some could be more painful than others. Having a chance to cut... in surgery the theme was: a chance to cut is a chance to heal, and I do enjoy doing things more than talking about doing things.
The year went by, and I started gaining more responsibility as I started my second year. Also, I started getting more snarky in my commentary, especially while working the children's hospital. I started doing shifts with the Mercy Flight crew and wrote about my first helicopter ride.
I ended with a final post on 10/26/2008.
Next week, I'll post my favorites from my second blog: Buffalo Squirrels Won't You Come Out Tonight?

I well remember reading your entries Veronica. It was a pleasure watching you develop and grow. More so when you married and posted all your lovely photos for me to look through. There were many of those to enjoy browsing through. Your honeymoon in Cancun (sp?) too.
I remember your stint in paediatrics. lol
It has been a pleasure following your entries.
Take care and make the most of your time off. It sounds like you are working very hard on those 12 hour shifts.
I can't believe how the years have flown by so fast!
