I'm so glad your here ( 1

Well Jason other then being married to a doctor,LOL, the Stess from going to the Carribean over a holiday,all the Xmas stress and the death last week of a very good friend...i'm great!!LMAO No seriously tho i'm doing good..can't complain i guess.But what about you??I haven't heard any thing new or your life with Daniel for a while now.Are things peaceful?better??

Also i'd be happy to start topics if you'd like on things calming down once a doctor is in paractice for a while.The things i've mentioned in the post above are Topics in the Medical spouse books tho.Have you read any of them yet??I've only been with phill 4years so far but i must say that i keep him grounded.After all the years of working 24hours a day i think it's easy for them to just stay in that groove unless we spouses tell them what we need and want in the relationship.At this point i can tell you what phill and his ex did wrong in that marriage..like the say hindsight is 20-20.It's too easy to not see things when your right in the middle of them.If i can help just one person on this site...i'd be happy.I know what pain and heartache is and the only reason i even come here is to try to help with all that i've learned in this long life of mine.LOL

Lynn......PS....you pick the topic!

Lynn, your perspective is so interesting, and in some ways contrasting to mine. I guess you and I are not that far apart in age. I'm going to be 40 in a couple of weeks and you are not yet 50. And yet, you are with a doctor that has been practicing for a long time, and I'm married to one who's just graduated (my husband did two full degrees before med school--fine art and biology plus had a full time job for a while). I've just have my first children, and you are a grandmother whose grandchildren are likely older than my kids.



I guess I feel like I'm just

I hate when that happens...



I will summarize my long, long reply that got cut off.



I guess I feel like we are "just starting the rest of our lives" when you are in a very different position. It's just an interesting position to be in to start this phase later, when many people have been practicing for a long time. Makes me sort of feel like I never grew up until I had kids, even though I've worked at many interesting jobs and went back to school for my masters. I guess I still define "arriving" as having children and getting past those board exams...

Janet at this point I describe arriving as Daniel and I getting a full nights sleep absent the horrible dreams he has about patients, codes, bagging people etc.



Last night while "sleeping" we had a number of interesting cases--haha



He has also taken to putting one foot on the ground and pounding it over and over and over and over again--he can keep that up for hours until I get out of bed, take his foot off the ground and then wrap the two of them (feet) with the sheets so he can't get them out of bed--Anyone have any old used guard rails--you know the kind we had as kids because our parents were afraid we would fall out of the bed. hahahaha



this morning he was talking about our big plans on Saturday night--anymore I just agree, and put about a 10% chance of us actually making it. He has great ideas but when it actually comes time to get up and out of the house, I usually find him sleeping.



Oh well, think of the money we are saving.



Speaking of which. since you asked Lynn, We sent a letter to the people that have some of daniel's defaulted student loans signed by our attorney and notarized telling them they need to talk to me about payment arrangements as he is 1. exhausted, and 2. no good at playing hard ball (he would give away the store). I have yet to hear from them yet. When you don't have that whole legal marriage thing it sure takes alot of time and money in legal fees to get them to deal with someone else besides the original debtor. Yuck!

Hi there!



My husband does the same exact thing! He talks in his sleep about patient orders. He also makes all these arragements that we are going to do either on a weekend or after work and when that time comes, haha, he's crashed on the couch!!!! I completely understand! I too just agree with him knowing full-well that it's probably not going to happen! I can relate!
