A rainy day in NY


Hey all!

I hear the weather is hot and sunny in Minnesota, quite the contrast from our very overcast, rainy weather here.  I calculated that I walked over 4 miles today in the rain.... let's just say, my vera bradley umbrella and I have become quite good friends.  Oh and the above picture is the view outside the hospital unit I work on... I just love it.

Today was another great day at work.  As I have explained to many of you, the nurse residency program at NYU is essentially an experience that integrates new graduate nurses into the field.  This means that not only do we have a lot of guidance in the clinical setting, we also have a lot of classroom work too.  Today we had a four hour class on reading EKGs (heart monitor strips) and then we had some class on radiology (xrays) and pressure sores.  We also have to take a lot of tests too... not the highlight but I suppose it's necessary.

Like I've stated before I am really adjusting well to the city life.  I love it here and am so thankful for this amazing opportunity.  I hope everyone has a great weekend and I send you all my best!
