moving to maryland

it's possible I've shared this picture before...I LOVE THIS PICTURE!!  I will miss my lil Muffinhead so much!!


This weekend I relocate...to Maryland!  It will be a two month gig - and I will be training with world famous orthopedic and podiatric surgeons.  I've heard that the program is INTENSE...and CRAZY...and AMAZING.  I'm pretty nervous...and sad to say goodbye to my family... but at the same time I'm really excited!  I will be taking part in some SUPERB surgical training.

I am so happy that I decided to embrace this opportunity.  I want to be the best surgeon I can be...and I am grateful that my residency is helping to make that happen.  (Can you tell I'm in a "good place" right now?  I've been enjoying this residency ride lately...who knew?)

I've never been to Maryland before...so this will be exciting in so many ways. 

(The downside will be missing out on my little one's FIRST BIRTHDAY - ugh - stab me in the heart.  I was throwing a small pity party for myself when someone reminded me of our service men and women who go overseas for months at a time...and miss out on some of the milestones of their little ones...put everything in perspective.  Pity party over.)

Have you ever been to Maryland?  Anything I should DEFINITELY do?

  1. I live in Baltimore, welcome!

    The main thing that you must do is EAT! Especially if you like seafood. There's so many great restaurants around the city.

  3. Oh, you should go to Salt Tavern, a restaurant in Baltimore!! My cousin Jason is the owner and chef and one of the nicest, funniest people I know. Tell him Jennifer Ambrose sent you!! Here's a link to the site: http://www.salttavern.com/

    Congrats on this wonderful experience. I'm happy to hear you're embracing the adventure. There will be more milestones. And someday Clara will be so proud when she hears that you did this and it will inspire her.

  6. Awesome opportunity! If you have allergies as bad as me, then you will probably be a lot happier being next to the coast. Good Luck!
