Busy, Busy

This month has been pretty busy. My rotations have started for the semester. I have 4 one month rotations. I'm at an independent pharmacy in Aiken. It's interesting to say the least. The best part is that I have gotten to shadow two pediatricians and see pediatric echoes done on several patients. The pharmacy is located adjacent to a pediatric office. It's a great opportunity to see how doctors and pharmacists should get along and influence medication decisions and provide advice to each other. Once a month the cardiac specialists from Columbia come and do EKGs and Echoes on patients with new-found murmurs and existing cardiac patients. We had one little girl who had to have open-heart surgery at 5 months old. She is doing very well now and is developing normally, not to mention she is adorable. I'm enjoying seeing the kids and getting to know the families. It's not a busy pharmacy, so there is time for personal interaction. Next month I'm at Fort Gordon. That should be interesting!
As far as wedding plans go, we have started registering for different things and trying to decide on china and bedspreads. We have put deposits with caterer, florist, and cake lady. We got our engagement pictures back and are pleased with them. When available, I'll send a link to view/purchase online.
I'm also still working at Kroger on Sunday evenings to make a little money and continue to rack up my much needed hours. However, by Thursday it feels like Friday and Saturday never last long enough.
Only one more week until Carolina Football begins...and you know that is HUGE around here! Hunter said our tickets came in the other day and we are set and ready to go. This is my favorite part of the year and my first football season that I won't have to study for an exam the Monday after a game (or study while tail-gating, which believe it or not, I have done on more that one occasion). It's also the first time in 18 or 19 years that I didn't have a "First day of school." I have to admit I'm excited about this fact, but I know I'll be wishing I had summers off all too soon.

WOW!! You have been super busy but it sounds like you've got everything together and I am so excited for you! I am assuming Brother John is going to marry y'all. I think I am going to see if he will dedicate Bennie for us even though we are not members there. We are in the process of becoming members at Cedar Creek but it is so big!! I want his dedication to be special, I don't want to be a face in the crowd. They had a dedication a few weeks ago and there were like 15 familes up there at the same time! Plus the Meyers are such special people to us!!
Can you believe Spurrier benched Blake, hmmmp! Bur we are looking forward to a great season!! GOOOOO COCKS!!

P.S. Sorry for the ramble!
